What Are Facial Peels?

Facial peels, also known as chemical peels, use specially formulated solutions to exfoliate the skin’s outermost layers. These treatments can improve tone, clarity, and surface texture with minimal downtime and lasting results. The following are common concerns facial peels can address:

  • Fine lines and sun damage
  • Mild acne and post-inflammatory discoloration
  • Uneven tone or texture
  • Dull, aging skin
  • Mild scarring or pigment irregularities

Am I a Good Candidate for Facial Peels?

Your candidacy will be determined during a detailed consultation that evaluates your skin type, goals, and any current conditions. Treatments are carefully selected to suit your needs and reduce risks. The following are ideal candidates for facial peels in Lawrenceville, GA:

  • Patients with mild to moderate hyperpigmentation or acne
  • Individuals looking to smooth fine lines or texture
  • Those with realistic expectations and a commitment to sun protection
  • Patients without active skin infections or uncontrolled skin conditions

What to Expect During Your Facial Peel

Your appointment will begin with a thorough consultation to identify the best peel formulation for your skin. Treatments are typically brief and well-tolerated.

  1. Skin is cleansed and prepped.
  2. A customized solution is applied and left in place for a designated period.
  3. Neutralizing agents may be used depending on the peel type.
  4. Aftercare instructions are provided to support healing and maximize results.

Recovery and Results Timeline

Some redness, tightness, or flaking may occur in the days following your facial peel. Recovery time depends on the strength of the peel—lighter peels have little to no downtime, while deeper options may require a week. Full results develop as old skin sheds, revealing a more even, refreshed complexion.
