What Are Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels use carefully formulated solutions to remove the top layer of skin, helping reduce the appearance of fine lines, dark spots, and other signs of aging caused by sun exposure and environmental stress. This process reveals a fresh layer of healthy, vibrant skin beneath, enhancing both clarity and texture.

- Brown spots and hyperpigmentation. Lightens dark spots and evens skin tone.
- Dull or rough skin. Reveals a bright, refreshed complexion.

- Uneven tone and texture. Balances and softens the skin’s surface.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING TREATMENT
Zayda Yeoh, NP, our expert nurse practitioner, will begin by evaluating your skin type and discussing your skincare goals to determine which type of peel is best suited to your needs.
Your skin will be gently cleansed to remove any makeup, oils, or impurities. Zayda will then prep your skin to ensure the peel is applied evenly and effectively.
Zayda will carefully apply the selected chemical peel solution to your skin, often in layers, to achieve the right level of exfoliation for your treatment goals. You may feel a mild tingling or warmth as the active ingredients begin to work.
The peel is left on for a specific amount of time, depending on your skin type and the strength of the peel. During this time, the solution exfoliates the top layer of your skin to promote renewal.
Once the peel has had enough time to work, Zayda will gently remove or neutralize the solution and cleanse your skin.
CHEMICAL PEELS QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Chemical peels use solutions that raise the skin’s acidity to remove dead skin cells. The solution loosens the surface layer of the skin, causing it to slough off.
Light
A light peel removes the outermost layer of the skin. Light peels typically don’t require downtime, so you can resume your normal activities right away. Zayda may recommend returning for regular treatments until you see your desired results.
Medium
A medium peel removes the surface layer of your skin and the top of the dermis. Medium peels require only minimal downtime and often produce visible results after one treatment.
Deep
A deep peel penetrates the deeper levels of the dermis for dramatic results. Most deep peels require extensive downtime, but you don’t have to return for another treatment.
To prepare, avoid retinoids, exfoliants, and strong skincare products for one week before your peel, and limit sun exposure by wearing SPF daily. Refrain from waxing the targeted area to reduce sensitivity and achieve the best results.
Post-peel, keep skin moisturized and apply SPF 30+ daily to protect against UV exposure. Avoid exfoliants and retinoids until skin is fully healed, usually within a week, and avoid picking at peeling skin to prevent irritation and scarring.
The effects of a chemical peel aren’t instant. After your visit, you may experience light peeling over the next few days. The fresh, new skin appears brighter, clearer, and firmer.
Light peels typically require monthly sessions to maintain a fresh glow, while deeper peels often deliver results that last several months. With proper skincare and consistent SPF use, results from deeper peels can last up to a year or more.
Most clients feel mild tingling during treatment, but discomfort is minimal and temporary. Zayda ensures you receive the appropriate peel for your skin type and comfort.
