The chemical peel is one such procedure that has been garnering attention for its transformative results. Chemical peels are a type of exfoliation that uses a chemical solution to remove the damaged outer layers of skin, revealing a smoother, less wrinkled, and more youthful-looking complexion.

The practice of chemical peels dates back to ancient times, with early civilizations using fruit acids as a form of skin rejuvenation. Today, they have evolved into a well-established skincare treatment, highly sought after for their role in addressing a variety of skin concerns such as hyperpigmentation, acne scars, fine lines, and uneven skin tone.

Let's delve deeper into understanding what to anticipate during and after the process of a chemical peel.

What Are Chemical Peels?

A chemical peel is a type of cosmetic treatment that involves applying a chemical solution to the face, neck, or hands. This solution exfoliates the skin, removing damaged top layers and revealing a smoother, less wrinkled appearance underneath. Chemical peels are reliable and cost-effective cosmetic treatments for various skin conditions. They can enhance skin texture, clear acne, reduce scar visibility, lighten melasma, and reverse the effects of sun damage.

At Cardi Aesthetics & Wellness, we offer chemical peels for all skin types. Welcoming patients of all ages and genders, our practice creates a relaxing atmosphere to ensure patients feel secure and discreet. Unlike large medispas or corporate-owned practices, our office provides a personal touch. We collaborate with each client to determine the most suitable type of chemical peel, tailoring the treatment to their specific skin type and personal goals.

What to Expect During a Chemical Peel

Receiving a chemical peel involves several key stages, starting with a thorough skin analysis and preparatory measures. Here's what you can expect:

  • Before: Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed. We may also recommend that you stop using certain types of skin care products or medications a few days or weeks before your treatment. This can help prepare your skin for the peel and optimize results, particularly for damaged skin cells.
  • During: The chosen chemical solution will be applied to the skin using a brush, sponge, or cotton pad. You may experience a tingling sensation as the solution begins to interact with your skin.
  • After: The skin will naturally begin to peel as part of the post-procedure process. Our team will give you aftercare instructions, including avoiding sun exposure, using a gentle cleanser, and applying a moisturizer.
