Chemical peels can be applied to all parts of the body that need assistance.

A chemical peel is usually a very safe procedure when performed by a qualified and experienced medical provider.

Typically 7 days after the skin has completed its exfoliation process and new skin starts forming.

Chemical peels cause patients minimal pain. While you may experience a slight tingling, tightness, or a change in the temperature of your skin.

Patients will be assessed during consultation to determine the amount of treatments needed for any specific skin condition. For best results more than one treatment is usually needed.
