Chemical peels — professional resurfacing for smoother, brighter, more even skin.
Dull, sun-damaged, or uneven skin holding you back?
Do you have damaged or aged skin that makes you feel self-conscious? If so, you may benefit from a chemical peel skin resurfacing treatment. These versatile, non-invasive treatments can improve or resolve a variety of common skin issues and leave you with the beautiful skin you’ve been dreaming of.
Since your skin is unique, our medical team will design a chemical peel treatment plan that can allow you to meet your particular goals.
Chemical peels involve peeling off the top layer of your skin tissue to reveal fresher, brighter skin. If you’d like to maintain a healthy glow year-round, we recommend two chemical peels each year to strip the dull, tired layer of your skin.
At ZENA Medical, we only use medical-grade chemical peels that cause light to moderate skin peeling and carry many high-quality products including TCA, Glycolic, Jessner and more.
We also offer Dr. Donna West’s signature Radiant Skin regimen, a unique protocol that harnesses the benefits of both microdermabrasion and Glyderm chemical peels. This strategic series of treatments are performed every 2 to 4 weeks and can allow for deeper penetration and incredible results.

While downtime depends on the chemical peel you choose, you’ll likely be able to resume your daily routine right away.
A chemical peel applies a professional-grade solution to exfoliate the skin’s outer layers in a controlled way. As the treated skin sheds, smoother, clearer, more even-toned skin is revealed and collagen renewal is stimulated underneath.
Peels are tailored in strength — from light “lunchtime” peels to deeper medical peels — to address dullness, fine lines, sun damage, uneven pigment, melasma, and acne. Your dermatologist selects the right depth and formula for your skin type and goals.
Downtime ranges from none for a light peel to several days of flaking for a deeper one, and a series often delivers the best results for pigment and texture. At ZENA Medical in Newport Beach, peels are chosen and performed under board-certified dermatologist Dr. Zena Gabriel to protect your skin barrier. Book a consultation to find your ideal peel.
