What are PEELS

Peels are treatments that use acids to exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells and revealing fresh, radiant skin underneath. Peels can address a variety of skin concerns, such as acne, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin texture.

Depending on the strength of the peel, it can also help to stimulate collagen production, making your skin look firmer and more youthful.

Seeking to brighten your complexion, banish discoloration, and bid farewell to acne scars? Our personalized custom peels are designed to rejuvenate your skin and restore your confidence.

We offer a complimentary, in-depth consultation for every client before each treatment.

  • It depends on the peel.

    • Light peels may cause light flaking with no downtime

    Our aesthetician will guide you on this based on your choice.

  • Typically, clients see improvement after 3 to 6 chemical peels, spaced about 2 to 4 weeks apart.

    However, the number depends on the depth and age of pigmentation and your skin’s response.

    We’ll customize a plan for your skin.
