Chemical Peels Queens Forest Hills
A chemical peel is a dermatological treatment that applies a carefully selected acid solution to the skin to exfoliate damaged outer layers and stimulate new cell growth. Chemical peels treat sun damage, age spots, acne scars, fine lines, and uneven skin tone. At Adult & Pediatric Dermatology in Forest Hills, Queens, Dr. Michael Paltiel offers superficial, medium, and deep chemical peels tailored to each patient's skin type and concerns. Depending on peel depth, patients typically see improvements in skin clarity, texture, and radiance within days to weeks of treatment.
