Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Chemical Peel.

During your Chemical Peel appointment, a therapist cleanses, assesses, and applies the selected acid. You may feel tingling or mild stinging. Neutralization and soothing follow, and we review aftercare and expected downtime before you leave.

We offer glycolic, salicylic, lactic and mandelic acids. Your Skincare Therapist evaluates skin type, concerns, and sensitivity to recommend the safest, most effective peel and strength during your consultation.

Downtime depends on peel depth: light peels may cause minimal peeling and redness for a few days; medium peels can produce several days of flaking. We'll provide detailed aftercare, sunscreen guidance, and follow-up to support healing.

Many clients notice improvement after one treatment, but a series of three to six peels spaced several weeks apart typically yields the best results for wrinkles, acne, and discoloration. Your therapist will tailor a plan to your needs.

Yes. Chemical peels can significantly improve acne scars and sun damage, especially with glycolic and mandelic acids for discoloration and salicylic acid for acne-prone skin. Results vary and often improve with combined treatments and proper maintenance.

Peels can be safe for sensitive or darker skin when selected and applied correctly. We choose gentler acids and lower strengths, perform assessments and patch tests, and use conservative treatment schedules to reduce hyperpigmentation risk.
