What is a Chemical Peel Treatment?

A chemical peel treatment is a professional skin resurfacing treatment designed to improve the tone, texture, and overall appearance of your skin. At MD Treatment Lounge, we provide customized chemical peel treatments for clients in St. Catharines who want help with acne, acne marks, sun damage, pigmentation, fine lines, and dull skin. By exfoliating damaged outer layers of skin, chemical peels help reveal a fresher, smoother, and more even-looking complexion.

For enhanced results, dermaplaning can also be added to your appointment. This gentle exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells and peach fuzz, allowing the peel to penetrate more effectively while leaving the skin exceptionally smooth and makeup-ready.

Who is a Good Candidate for Chemical Peel Treatment?

Good candidates for a Chemical Peel Treatment typically have specific skin concerns and conditions that can benefit from this treatment. They include individuals who:

  • Have concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, uneven skin tone, sun damage, or age spots
  • Generally have healthy skin and are not currently experiencing significant skin infections, lesions, or open wounds
  • Understand the potential benefits and limitations of chemical peels
  • Chemical peels are suitable for various skin types, but the choice of peel and its intensity should match the individual's skin type and concerns

How Do Chemical Peels Work?

Chemical peels work by applying a chemical solution to the skin's surface. Acids like glycolic lactic, salicylic, or trichloroacetic acid, which are present in this solution, dissolve the outermost layer of aging or damaged skin. The amount of exfoliation depends on the depth of the peel. A smoother, more even complexion is the consequence of the old skin peeling off, which encourages the formation of new skin cells.

Chemical peels can treat a number of skin issues, such as sun damage, uneven pigmentation, wrinkles, and acne scars, leaving behind skin that is renewed and revitalized.

Pre-Treatment Care

  • Avoid physical and chemical exfoliants for at least one week prior.
  • Avoid sun exposure.
  • Avoid any professional facials or skin treatments in the week leading up to the peel.

  • Switch to a mild, non-irritating cleanser a week prior to minimize skin irritation.
  • Apply a hydrating mask in the days leading up to the peel for added moisture.
