Types of Peels
Q:
what types of chemical peels do you offer and how do they differ?
A:
We offer glycolic, salicylic, Jessner, and ZO 3-Step peels. Each addresses different concerns — glycolic is great for general rejuvenation, salicylic targets acne and oily skin, Jessner provides medium-depth exfoliation, and the ZO 3-Step is excellent for hyperpigmentation.
Q:
which peel do you usually recommend for first-time patients?
A:
It depends on your skin type and goals. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your skin and give you an individualized recommendation. First-time patients often start with a gentler peel to see how their skin responds.
Preparing for Your Peel
Q:
how should i prepare my skin before a chemical peel treatment?
A:
Avoid using retinols or exfoliants for 2 weeks prior to your peel. This helps prevent excessive sensitivity and ensures you get optimal results from the treatment.
Who Is a Candidate
Q:
are chemical peels safe for all skin types including darker complexions?
A:
Yes, chemical peels are safe for all skin types. We offer different peels for different skin types, and we take extra care with darker complexions to minimize any risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Combining Treatments
Q:
can chemical peel be paired with facial or microneedling for better results?
A:
Yes, chemical peels can be combined with other treatments, but not on the same day. We space these procedures out to allow proper healing and avoid over-stressing the skin.
Cost & Insurance
Q:
are chemical peels covered by health insurance for medical skin conditions?
A:
No, cosmetic treatments including chemical peels are not covered by insurance. However, we offer financing options to help make treatment accessible.
