Chemical peel or exfoliation helps remove the outer, older layer of skin, and allow the next, younger layer to show, offering a finer, smoother appearance.

The peel uses chemical acids such as alpha hydroxy acids. Some acids help loosen your skin cells while others help facilitate the sloughing of the outer layer of the skin.

Meet with our expert cosmetic providers to determine the best type and strength of peel that will give you maximum results.
