Chemical Peel Facials 

SkinMedica chemical peels are professional-grade treatments that use a blend of acids (e.g., alpha-hydroxy acids [AHAs] like glycolic and lactic acid, beta-hydroxy acids [BHAs] like salicylic acid, and trichloroacetic acid [TCA]) to exfoliate the skin by removing dead cells from the surface and stimulating cellular turnover. They are designed to address specific skin concerns such as aging, hyperpigmentation, acne, and uneven texture. SkinMedica offers a range of peels, including the Illuminize Peel, Vitalize Peel, and Rejuvenize Peel, each varying in strength to suit different skin types and goals.

• Illuminize Peel: A superficial peel for mild skin imperfections, ideal for first-time clients or those seeking a quick refresh.
• Vitalize Peel: A medium-depth peel targeting moderate skin concerns like fine lines, sun damage, and melasma.
• Rejuvenize Peel: A deeper peel for more pronounced issues like deeper wrinkles, acne scars, and significant pigmentation.

These peels are applied in a medical spa or clinical setting by trained professionals to ensure safety and efficacy.

Benefits 

• Exfoliation and Skin Renewal: Removes dead skin cells, revealing smoother, brighter skin and promoting new cell growth.
• Anti-Aging: Reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and sun damage by stimulating collagen production, particularly with Vitalize and Rejuvenize Peels.
• Hyperpigmentation Correction: Fades dark spots, melasma, and uneven tone, with the Illuminize Peel offering gentle brightening and deeper peels addressing more stubborn pigmentation.
• Acne and Scar Improvement: Clears clogged pores and reduces acne scars, especially with salicylic acid-based peels (e.g., Vitalize Peel for acne-prone skin).
• Customizable: Three peel strengths allow tailored treatments for mild to severe skin concerns, suitable for all skin types with proper professional assessment.
• Minimal Downtime: Illuminize Peel requires little to no downtime (a “lunchtime peel”), while Vitalize and Rejuvenize Peels involve 2–5 days of mild peeling, offering flexibility for clients.
• Enhanced Product Penetration: Improves absorption of SkinMedica’s post-peel products (e.g., TNS Ceramide Treatment Cream), boosting results.
• Professional-Grade Results: Formulated with proprietary blends (e.g., Vitalize Peel’s Retinol Solution) for consistent, clinically proven outcomes compared to over-the-counter peels.
