What Are Chemical Peels?

Chemical peels are a non-surgical and non-invasive solution designed to rejuvenate and brighten your skin. These treatments can be applied to the face, neck, chest, shoulders, hands, and other areas to improve skin tone, texture, and appearance. Chemical peels reduce the visibility of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation. After just one session, your skin will feel noticeably smoother and fresher.

At About Face Skin Care, we offer a variety of advanced options including glycolic acid peels, facial chemical peels, and customized peel formulas to suit your needs.

How Much Do Chemical Peels Cost?

The cost of your chemical peel treatment depends on your skin condition and desired results. We offer a range of chemical peel and facial packages, and our skincare professionals will help determine the best solution during a personal consultation. Some cases may require multiple sessions for optimal, lasting results.

Am I a Candidate for Chemical Peels?

How Are Chemical Peels Performed?

The procedure begins with thorough cleansing of your treatment area. A chemical solution is then applied in layers to gently exfoliate and remove damaged skin cells. Treatments generally last around an hour, and afterward, your skin will be rehydrated to promote healing and protection.

What Is Recovery Like After Chemical Peels?

You can go home the same day and resume most normal activities. It's important to avoid sun exposure, heat, and strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours post-treatment. Peeling usually begins around day 3—resist the urge to pick or exfoliate, allowing your skin to shed naturally for optimal results.

How Long Will My Chemical Peel Results Last?

Results can last several months, depending on your skincare routine and the strength of the peel. You’ll start to notice improvement as your skin heals, and follow-up treatments may be recommended every few months or annually to maintain your results.
