Over time, your skin experiences natural age-related changes that can cause an uneven skin tone and texture. This can be due to acne, scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, or hyperpigmentation. Jennifer Geyer, our licensed aesthetician and certified injector, can address these concerns for patients in Mansfield using chemical peels to achieve a healthier and more youthful appearance. Most chemical peels have few side effects and minimal recovery time, offering quick and effective results, and are a popular non-surgical option at our practice.
Chemical peels apply an acidic solution to the skin that causes controlled exfoliation to remove the outer layers of damaged skin. This reveals smoother, clearer skin below the surface and typically involves alpha-hydroxy and beta-hydroxy acids. In the weeks following treatment, these acids should strip away the dead or damaged skin on the surface. We typically use chemical exfoliation in combination with dermaplaning for enhanced results.
Chemical peels are safe and generally well-tolerated, but some Mansfield patients can expect some side effects as your skin heals and reveals rejuvenated results. Immediately after your chemexfoliation, you may experience skin redness, swelling, and mild stinging or discomfort. The recovery time will vary based on which type of chemical peel you receive, but it is generally 1–2 weeks.
Chemical peel treatments offer many benefits that enhance the look of facial skin to reveal a healthier and more youthful glow. Here are some advantages to this aesthetic treatment:
If you are in Mansfield seeking improved skin tone and texture, reach out to our office to learn how a chemical skin peel can offer targeted solutions for your unique concerns.
Our aesthetic team offers three chemexfoliation options to ensure we have the best treatment for your unique needs: light, medium, or deep chemical peels.
A light chemical peel is designed to target superficial skincare concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne, dryness, and uneven skin texture or tone. It is a good option if you want subtle skin rejuvenation with minimal side effects and downtime.
If you are looking for more drastic results, a medium chemical peel may be a better option. This peel targets more severe scars, wrinkles, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation.
The most powerful treatment is a deep chemical peel which resolves deeper wrinkles, scars, damage, and hyperpigmentation. This peel offers the most drastic change in skin texture and tone, though you can also expect more recovery time and side effects.
Chemical skin peeling is a great way for many clients in Mansfield to achieve healthier, more radiant skin. If you have visible signs of aging or acne scarring and want to improve texture, a chemical peel may be right for you. You should be aware that these treatments are most effective on lighter skin tones. If you have a darker complexion, reach out to our team to learn which aesthetic treatments may be more appropriate.
Ideal candidates will be in good overall health with no uncontrolled medical conditions, as this can affect your recovery and results. We recommend receiving multiple chemical peels to maintain results. Appropriate candidates should be prepared to return to our office periodically for repeat treatments.
