SKINMEDICA PEELS: TREATMENT DAY

At your consultation, your provider will discuss your skin concerns, your goals and go over your current routine. It is important to be as thorough as possible in order to make the best treatment plan for you! If a SkinMedica peel is right for you, and the timing is correct, we can administer the peel the same day. If not, you will schedule a separate appointment for your treatment. At this appointment, you will be asked to cleanse your skin. Then, we will take before photos to track your progress. Next, we will administer the peel. The actual treatment takes about 30 minutes and is painless. You may experience mild tingling as the peel is applied, but this feeling disappears rather quickly. After the peel has been applied, you will be given aftercare instructions that you should follow to achieve best results.
