What is a chemical peel?
A chemical peel is a technique used to improve the appearance of the skin on the face, neck or hands. A chemical solution is applied to the skin that causes it to exfoliate and eventually peel off. The new, regenerated skin is usually smoother and less wrinkled than the old skin.

How often should I get a chemical peel ?
Mild peels can be repeated every four weeks until you get the results you’re after.
When will I see results?
After three to five days, most of the peeling should be complete, but it may take anywhere from five to seven days before your fresh, new skin has developed.
How many chemical peels will I need to have ?
The number of peels required depends on the condition being treated. If you are treating concerns such as sun damage or acne, multiple peels will be required. Some improvement will be seen after each peel, but it typically takes a series of 6 peels to see the full effect.
Can I have botox and fillers the same day as a chemical peel ?
We require patients to wait a minimum of 2 weeks between treatments for best results.
