FAQ
What is a Chemical Peel?
Chemical Peels are a method of exfoliation ranging from mild, that work in the upper layers of the epidermis, to deeper peels, that penetrate the deeper layers of the epidermis and upper dermal tissue. Peel levels are selected based on your overall skin health and desired goal! Peels can be used to enhance and increase overall treatment results to target the following conditions: Sun damage, rough/uneven texture, fine lines, wrinkles, tissue laxity, acne, congestion in the skin, hyperpigmentation, dullness, dryness, and certain types of scarring.
What is a Chemical Peel Treatment Like?
We prep your skin by using products to cleanse and degrease, getting rid of any make-up and oils on the skin, this allows for even penetration of the chemical peel. We start with one layer of the chemical peel and possibly more depending on how aggressive your aesthetician thinks is needed.
How Long Does a Chemical Peel Treatment Take?
- The process usually takes 30-45 minutes but can be adjusted depending on your needs. There is no pain or discomfort, and the treatment is safe.
What Can I Expect Post-treatment?
- Your provider will decide which level of chemical peel is best suited for your skin. Depending on the level of chemical peel you may experience no peeling or moderate peeling of the skin. Once your skin is done going through the peeling process, it will look bright and refreshed!
How Often Should I Get a Chemical Peel?
- We recommend a series of 3-6 chemical peels for optimum results. With allowing 4 weeks in between each treatment.

A critical mistake that some patients make is neglecting the maintenance of their treatment. Botox and Dysport may metabolize at different rates depending on the person, but typically the treated area should be re-injected after about 3-4 months.
If you keep-up on your Botox/Dysport, the dosage can be fine-tuned to your exact prescribed needs. This can not only prevent over or under-treating the area, but saves you money and time in the long run.
