Chemical Peels Treatment Specialist Serving Santa Cruz, Aptos, CA

Yes, chemical peels can be very good for your skin. They’re a great way to improve your skin’s overall appearance and give you a glowing, younger look without hurting the skin. Common skin problems, like acne scarring and wrinkles, can be addressed with a peel, but you’ll benefit from a peel even if you don’t have these issues. For example, exfoliating the skin is good for it, and a peel can help with this.

The term “chemical peel” might sound somewhat harsh to you and as though the procedure might harm the skin, but the only common side effects are short-term redness and sun sensitivity. It’s important to have a consultation with our med spa professionals here at Pacific Coast Aesthetics, but most patients will be fine candidates for a peel and experience no harmful complications. As for the benefits of chemical peels, they’re amazing!

The benefits of chemical peels can vary and be numerous. With a peel, you can address issues like sun damage, acne scarring, rosacea, wrinkles, texture issues, tone issues, and other common skin problems, or even some less common problems. By removing the upper and damaged layer of skin, a peel will reveal healthier skin below and allow it to develop and shine. Skin will be smoother and softer after our skincare treatments, and generally, the result is a healthier, younger look.

Speaking of results, you can and should expect them from a peel, keeping in mind that results vary from person to person. For many people, their results will last from months to years and can be maintained since peels have become quite affordable over the years. There are many other aesthetic and medical benefits of chemical peels, like how they can help moisturizing products work more effectively, and how the recovery time is minimal!

A light peel doesn’t hurt at all, and a medium peel is rarely a problem. A deeper peel can address more severe skin problems. Depending on the type of peel you get, you might have a recovery time of one or two weeks, and then you’re all healed up. Redness can last for a while longer, especially with a deeper chemical peel. Generally, though, patients recover quickly from a peel, and you can expect the same!
