Chemical Peels Specialist

What is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a professional exfoliation treatment. CaMar Med Spa medical staff customize chemicals to address your skin’s unique issues. The chemicals mildly shock and burn the top layer of skin, causing it to peel and slough away. A new, fresh, younger looking layer emerges.

What skin concerns do chemical peels treat?

Chemical peels are the go-to treatment for fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, texture problems, sagging skin, bad acne, and hyperpigmentation. If you have rosacea, eczema, a skin infection, or if you’re pregnant, the medical staff at CaMar won’t recommend having a chemical peel at this time. There are other great treatment options to help with your condition.

Do chemical peels hurt?

You may experience pressure, tingling, or ranges in temperature during your chemical peel, but it doesn’t hurt. The CaMar Med Spa team continuously monitors your comfort level to make sure you tolerate the procedure well.

For about 48 hours, your skin will be sensitive to light and may feel sore, but it quickly passes and you’re left with skin that looks amazing.

How should I care for my skin after a chemical peel?

Depending on the strength of chemical peel you receive, your skin is likely to peel and flake as if you burned it in the sun. To counteract this, after you get a chemical peel at CaMar Med Spa, follow these steps:

• Stay out of the sun for 48 hours
• Drink plenty of water
• Wash with a mild cleanser
• Apply a light moisturizer each day
• Use sunscreen daily

If there are other ways to enhance the effects of your chemical peel and address your goals and concerns, the CaMar Med Spa medical staff advises you at your appointment.

How many chemical peel treatments are required?

Every treatment at CaMar Med Spa is customized according to your exact needs and long-term goals. First, the medical stagg meets with you to evaluate your skin and health history. If they determine that a chemical peel benefits you, he may recommend a series of three or four to maximize your results and eliminate your trouble spots.

Many men and women like how their skin looks so much that they schedule a chemical peel as part of their regular skin care regimen.
