Chemical Peels:

Chemical peels are effective for anti aging skin care (wrinkles, lines, crow’s feet, dull skin tones), to improve acne and acne scars, minimize pores, loosen blackheads, improve sun damaged skin, improve the appearance of stretch marks, fade age spots and general hyperpigmentaton, to rejuvenate and improve the tone and texture of your skin. Doing your chemical peel at home is convenient and cost effective.

How to choose the at home chemical peel that is right for you:

Mandelic Acid: An alpha hydroxy acid derived from the bitter almond nut. This is a gentle acid which exfoliates the skin with very little topical discomfort. Excellent for inhibiting the formation of brown spots, and hyperpigmentation. Will not cause unwanted lightening of the skin in darker skin tones. Improve acne, melasma, sun damaged skin, large pores, blackheads, wrinkles, dull, sallow skin. Contraindications: Do not use if you have nut allergies.

Lactic Acid: Milder than glycolic acid, and typically better for working on hyper pigmentation problems, our formulation contains licorice extract, an effective skin lightening additive. Appropriate for dry skin or oily skin. An alpha hydroxy acid, this is a great “first peel” for oily, dry, normal and sensitive skin types. The inherent properties of this peel make it ideal for clients with uneven skin tones and general hyper pigmentation. Contraindiations: Do no use if you have milk allergies.

Glycolic Acid: A bit more aggressive than lactic acids, this is also an alpha hydroxy peel and will exfoliate the outer layers of your skin. Glycolic acid is a good all-around acid for normal-oily skin types to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin, as well as addressing the issues of acne, acne scarring, wrinkles and fine lines.

Phytic Acid: A superficial peel with exfoliating properties. Desirable for skin types that cannot tolerate AHA’s. Derived from rice, this product is excellent for anti aging, skin smoothing, brightening, Melasma and general discolorations. Acne clients will see improved skin clearing. Those with PIH (post inflammatory hyper pigmentation) will see excellent results.

ProLight Peel w/2% Hydroquinone: A lightening peel for Melasma, PIH (post inflammatory hyperpigmentation) that produces very visible peeling. A combination of acids including salicylic, lactic, kojic, citric, phytic and resorcinol (peeling agent) will help to lighten and brighten your skin and fade stubborn skin discolorations. Peeling will begin 2-3 days after application and typically continue for another 3 days or so. Contraindications: Do not use if you have allergies to milk or aspirin products.

Salicylic Acid (beta hydroxy): Oil soluble, thus making these acids perfect for oily/acne skin that needs deep pore cleansing and loosening of blackheads. Use this as a “first-step” when using alpha hydroxy acid peels to remove oils from the skin, or use alone 3-4 times per week for oil/blackhead control. A beta-hydroxy, this acid penetrates the upper layers of the epidermis only. For a stronger application, use our 15% salicylic acid peel once a week. Contraindications: Do not use if you have allergies to aspirin products.

Radiance Peel: A combination peel combining both alpha and beta hydroxy acids with more natural/organic origins. Excellent skin exfoliation, skin brightening, deep pore cleaning and reduction, skin texture refinement, alleviate sun damage, minor melasma and discolorations, smooths uneven skin tones, softens lines, wrinkles.

TCA: Deeper peeling class of acids excellent for improving the look of acne, lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne scars, stretch marks, sun damage, lip lines, age spots and general scarring. Longer lasting results, more intensive.

Jessner: A peel that is layered until it frosts, it contains alpha and beta hydroxies along with resorcinol. This peel is ideal for clients with cystic acne.

Non Acid Enzyme Peels: All natural enzymes safely dissolve surface skin debris and leave skin feeling soft, cleansed and refreshed. Our enzyme peels are professional strength, exactly what you would get in a very high-end salon. Use enzymes if you have sensitive skin that is non-tolerant of acid usage.
