What is a chemical peel?
A chemical peel is a treatment performed by a spa or medical professional in which a chemical solution is used to help remove dead skin and improve smoothness and texture.

What Skin Conditions Can These Peels Treat?
Peels can treat sun damage, brown spots and patches, fine lines and wrinkles and acne scarring.
What do I do after my peels?
Make sure you do not get tan or sunburned for at least 6 weeks after any peel or laser treatment. Wear a sunscreen of at least an SFP 30 and a hat when outside. No special care is otherwise required but you will receive complimentary Skin Medica products to use after each peel.
