Types of Chemical Peels
Your dermatologist can customize your chemical peel to match your skin concerns and lifestyle. While some people may benefit from a gentle peel every few months, others may prefer to accept some downtime for more intensive, longer-lasting results. At ZENA Medical, we offer a range of medical-grade peels to help achieve your goals.
Superficial Peel
A mild or superficial peel removes the dead outer layers of skin to help your face look brighter, clearer, and more refreshed. It works well for problems related to skin tone, acne, and rough, uneven skin. These peels work gently enough that almost anyone can have one. You will have little to no downtime.
Medium Peel
A medium peel uses stronger acids to remove more layers of skin. This helps it improve acne scarring, wrinkles, and deeper uneven skin tone or sun damage. A medium peel may be a good choice if a superficial peel is not strong enough to address your needs. These peels may involve some redness and minor peeling for a few days.
Deep Peel
This intensive peel works deeper into the skin to remove more layers. It can remove lines and wrinkles, scarring, and uneven pigmentation. It also generates skin regrowth and renewal for skin that looks smoother, more even, and younger. These peels require more intensive recovery.
