Is it finally time for you to start thinking about getting a chemical peel?

Periodic peeling of the skin helps to stimulate cellular activity, and is used for everything from age spots and pigmentation disorders to treatment of acne and enlarged pores.  By stimulating collagen and elastin, increasing antioxidants and firming and hydrating your skin, fine lines and wrinkles disappear, and your overall appearance is rejuvenated.

Essentially, a chemical peel exfoliates the outer layer of damaged skin to reveal the newer layer that lies beneath. Normal healing and skin rejuvenation then occur as increased cell turnover occurs on the surface layer of your skin. Your skin tone will appear much more even and youthful. We then add enzymes and vitamins to nourish the newly revealed skin. Rhonda Allison acids and enzymes are incorporated in our treatments, and each is tailored to your specific skin type and condition.

Each of our skin peels has been designed for a specific purpose, and we first evaluate your skin’s needs and make the proper recommendation. The ingredients in our chemical peels actually work with the molecular makeup of the skin’s surface layer to dissolve the bonds and reveal the skin beneath. Visually, the skin looks younger and smoother, but our peels add significant benefits. For instance, our Pumpkin Regeneration peel adds Vitamin A, beta carotene and zinc to the skin, all of which are essential for optimal skin health and have been proven to resist the aging process. Our Cherry Enzyme Rejuvenator delivers powerful antioxidants deep into the skin to support healthy growth.

The most important thing you can do before your peel is ask a LOT of questions. A well informed client is a happy client! A chemical peel is more involved, has a few more potential side effects, and requires greater after-care than just a facial. Never feel rushed into your decision. We provide you with detailed after care instructions and are available by phone for any and all questions or concerns you have during the post-peel timeframe.
