Chemical Peels in King of Prussia

A chemical peel is a deep exfoliation treatment to help your skin get glowing and event-ready. Chemical peels offer a variety of benefits to men and women, including smoothing wrinkles and fine lines, removing dull, dead skin, treating active acne and acne scars, hydrating and nourishing skin, and of course, giving the skin a radiant glow!

Chemical peels are offered in-house at our full-service medical spa. For more information about booking your chemical peel in King of Prussia, connect with our medical team today.

The Science Behind Chemical Peels

If you have a good at-home skincare routine, you probably exfoliate your skin regularly. This helps remove dead, dull skin cells. However, a chemical peel can penetrate even deeper into the skin than common at-home methods, exfoliating not only superficial complexion concerns such as dull, dehydrated skin cells, but also addressing deeper issues like fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation.

Chemical peels make use of potent, clinical-grade ingredients to chemically exfoliate your skin. Dead, superficial layers of your skin are peeled off, allowing new skin cells to form–giving you a refreshed, younger-looking appearance. Chemical peels in King of Prussia can address a variety of skin issues, including:

• Signs of aging
• Fine lines
• Wrinkles
• Hyperpigmentation
• Melasma
• Sun damage
• Environmental damage
• Age spots
• Acne and acne scars
• Freckles

Best of all, chemical peels can address all of these skincare concerns at once. While the majority of our patients use chemical peels to address skin concerns on the face, we also offer chemical peels for other areas of the body, such as the hands and back.

Your Chemical Peel Appointment

Chemical peels are generally classified into three levels: light, medium, and deep. Each level utilizes specific formulations based on the required absorption to attain the intended outcomes. During a detailed consultation, our team will explain your choices and assist you in selecting the most suitable type of chemical peel for your needs.

Your chemical peel will be performed in our clinic, by one of our skilled and trained King of Prussia estheticians. The peel will stay on the target area for the advised treatment time and typically takes less than an hour. Following this, the peel is removed gently and you are cleared to go.

You will notice your results in a few days, and it will take approximately two weeks for your skin to fully heal and for your results to be fully apparent. At this point, you will be able to enjoy luminous, healthy skin.

How Can I Best Prepare My Skin Before My Professional Chemical Peel Appointment?

For at least 48 hours leading up to your appointment:

• Do not exfoliate the treatment area or apply harsh products
• Stay hydrated
• Do not wear makeup or skincare products to your appointment

Following these pre-care steps will ensure that your skin is ready and prepped for your King of Prussia chemical peel appointment.
