Curious if a chemical face peel is right for you? Read here to learn about chemical face peels, including how they work and the different types offered at DermaTouch RN.
If you’re researching treatments that can help you look your best, you might have stumbled upon treatments referred to as chemical peels. Chemical peels can help to improve the look and feel of the skin while addressing signs of aging.
So what are chemical peels, and how do they work?
We turned to San Antonio-based Aesthetician Stephanie Guillen for answers.
What are chemical face peels?
A chemical peel is a cosmetic treatment that exfoliates the skin and promotes new cell growth. Benefits of chemical peels include improvement in:
- Skin tone
- Skin texture
- Appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Appearance of acne scarring
There are various levels of peels, ranging from light to deep. The deeper the peel, the more recovery time required. You can typically expect to get greater results with deeper peels, as well.
What types of chemical face peels are available at DermaTouch RN?
DermaTouch RN offers SkinMedica chemical peels. SkinMedica is a medical-grade skincare line that offers solutions to support a variety of types of skincare concerns and needs.
“We offer a variety of professional-grade chemical peels to suit different skin types and concerns,” shares Guillen, “The chemical peels range from light to medium depth and are selected based on your skin’s needs.”
According to Guillen, DermaTouch RN offers the following SkinMedica chemical peels:
- Illuminize Peel: Perfect for first-timers or those with sensitive skin. This is a superficial peel that brightens skin with minimal downtime.
- Vitalize Peel: Ideal for addressing mild to moderate imperfections, including fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven texture.
- Rejuvenize Peel: A more advanced peel for deeper skin rejuvenation, addresses moderate to severe skin concerns like sun damage and hyperpigmentation.
- VI Peel Precision Plus: A medium-depth peel designed to suppress melanocytes, target stubborn hyperpigmentation, and improve overall skin tone and texture.
Who is an ideal candidate for a chemical peel treatment?
Guillen is a fan of how quickly clients can see results with consistent chemical peel treatments:
“What I like most about chemical peels is their ability to deliver noticeable results in a short time. Consistency is key, and with regular treatments, clients can expect to see improved skin texture, brighter complexion, clearer skin from acne, and reduced fine lines and wrinkles.”
