OUR APPROACH TO CHEMICAL PEELS
A chemical peel uses a solution of active ingredients, primarily acids, to create a controlled exfoliation of the outermost layers of the skin. As the treated skin naturally sheds, new skin is revealed underneath with improved texture and more even pigmentation.
Chemical peels can also help improve acne and blemishes by increasing skin cell turnover and may assist with reducing the appearance of acne scars. Depending on the concerns being treated and the area of focus, multiple sessions may be recommended for optimal results, especially for pigmentation and dark spots.
Patients receiving chemical peels at our aesthetic clinic are provided with medical-grade skincare to help optimize and maintain their results.
Pre-Care
It’s important to follow these pre-care guidelines to help ensure the best possible chemical peel results.
Do not wear makeup to your appointment.
Avoid shaving, waxing, or chemical hair removal for at least 48 hours prior to your chemical face peel.
If you are prone to cold sores, begin taking your prescribed medication at least 3 days prior to your appointment.
Post-Care
Please follow these aftercare instructions carefully to ensure optimal healing and results.
No makeup for 24 hours.
Remove the chemical peel at the time noted by your provider.
Avoid touching the treated areas for 24 hours unless you are cleansing and/or applying skincare.
Patients should expect redness for 24 hours. The following day, skin may feel very dry and appear darker before peeling begins around day 3. Peeling can continue for up to 7 days. Do not pick at peeling skin. It must be left alone or carefully trimmed with scissors if necessary.
No exfoliating your skin physically or chemically for 2 weeks.
Daily sunscreen is mandatory for 2 weeks.
No working out for 24 hours after your chemical peel.
Faqs
Patients will start peeling usually starting on the third day after the chemical peel treatment at our NYC MedSpa. It will take a full week for the patient to stop peeling (there may be some residual peeling one to two days after). Once the patient has stopped peeling they can fully appreciate their results, such as reduced acne scars, from the chemical peel.
Recovery from a chemical skin peel is a week. Meaning, patients will be peeling throughout the week and need to be extremely conscious of avoiding sun exposure for the first week. SPF 50+ should be utilized following the chemical peel for at least two weeks to ensure proper protection.
It depends. Chemical peels can be safe to do in the Summer if the patient is completely out of the sun during the week-long recovery period. They must also have very limited sun exposure during the second week of treatment, along with appropriate sun protection (SPF 50+). Many patients find this challenging during the Summer months, but if they do want to proceed with a chemical peel it is possible with the appropriate safety parameters in place.
Yes! Chemical peels are great for improving the texture of your skin. It can take a combination of med spa for men treatments such as chemical peels, RF Microneedling, and laser resurfacing to address significant scarring. But patients can expect an improvement with more luminous skin after every treatment.
Medical spa patients can appreciate luminous skin, reduced acne, softer skin, refined pores, and improved acne scars. The desired results of a facial chemical peel can help to minimize the appearance of skin conditions, such as acne, acne scars, and other forms of discoloration.
