Medical Grade Peels

Medical grade facial peels are a type of chemical peel that are performed by a licensed professional. They are designed to target a range of skin concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and sun damage.

Medical grade facial peels typically use stronger concentrations of active ingredients, such as alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), trichloroacetic acid (TCA), or phenol. The strength of the peel will depend on the individual’s skin type and specific concerns, and may require a series of treatments for optimal results.

Before undergoing a medical grade facial peel, the medical professional will typically evaluate the patient’s skin type and medical history to determine the appropriate treatment. The procedure itself usually involves the application of the chemical solution to the face, which may cause a stinging or burning sensation. After a few minutes, the solution is neutralized and removed, and a soothing cream or ointment is applied to the skin.
