Frequently Asked Questions

During the procedure, you may experience a tingling or burning sensation that typically subsides after a few minutes.
Anyone who has fine lines, wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, shallow acne scars or sun-damaged skin is a candidate. Be sure to mention if you have any history of a viral infection, sensitive skin, or if you have used microdermabrasion or Accutane within the past six months.
The chemical peel benefits will be subtle at first, but you will begin to see results within seven days after treatment. Over time you will notice an improvement in skin texture and tone, as fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven pigmentation fade.
The frequency of chemical peels depends on the type of peel and your skin’s response. Superficial peels can be done every 4-6 weeks as part of a regular skincare regimen, while deeper peels are typically performed less frequently.
