What is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a skin resurfacing treatment that uses a medical-grade solution to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin. This process helps improve skin texture, tone, and overall clarity.

What skin concerns can chemical peels treat?

Chemical peels are commonly used to address uneven skin tone, sun damage, fine lines, acne, acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, and dull or rough skin texture.

What types of chemical peels are available?

Chemical peels range from superficial to medium-depth treatments. The type of peel recommended depends on skin concerns, skin type, and desired results, and is determined during a consultation.

How does a chemical peel work?

The peel solution gently removes damaged outer skin layers, allowing new, healthier skin cells to regenerate. Over time, this can improve skin smoothness and appearance.

How many chemical peel treatments are needed?

Many patients see improvement after one treatment, but a series of peels may be recommended for optimal results, depending on the skin concern being treated.

Is there downtime after a chemical peel?

Downtime varies based on the depth of the peel. Mild peels may cause light redness or flaking for a few days, while deeper peels may involve longer recovery periods.

When will I see results from a chemical peel?

Initial improvements may be visible within days to weeks as the skin renews itself. Results continue to improve with proper skincare and follow-up treatments.

Are chemical peels safe for all skin types?

Many chemical peels can be safely customized for different skin types. A consultation is important to determine the most appropriate peel and minimize the risk of irritation or pigmentation changes.

Can chemical peels be combined with other treatments?

Chemical peels are often combined with treatments such as microneedling, facials, or medical-grade skincare as part of a comprehensive skin care plan.

How long does a chemical peel appointment take?

Most chemical peel appointments take approximately 20–30 minutes, depending on the type of peel used.

Who is a good candidate for a chemical peel?

Chemical peels may be suitable for individuals seeking to improve skin texture, tone, or clarity. A consultation is required to ensure the treatment aligns with skin goals and health history.

Chemical Peel Treatments Skin Rejuvenation and Anti-Aging

Chemical peels are a skin resurfacing treatment that removes dead skin cells and stimulates new cell growth. By applying a specialized solution to the skin, peels help reduce the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation. The treatment improves skin texture and tone, leaving your complexion smoother and more radiant. Ideal for clients seeking brighter, clearer skin, chemical peels offer customizable results, ranging from superficial to deep exfoliation, depending on individual needs. They promote healthy skin renewal for a youthful, refreshed appearance.

Fine Lines & Wrinkles

Chemical peels reduce fine lines by exfoliating the skin’s outer layer, stimulating collagen production, and encouraging new cell growth. This process smooths the skin and improves elasticity, reducing the appearance of fine lines for a firmer, youthful look.⬤

Scarring

Chemical peels help with scarring and acne by exfoliating the top layers of skin, removing dead cells, and unclogging pores. This process reduces acne breakouts and diminishes the appearance of acne scars over time. Peels also stimulate collagen production, which aids in healing and improving skin texture, making scars less visible and skin smoother.

Hyperpigmentation & Sun Damage

Chemical peels help with hyperpigmentation and sun damage by exfoliating the skin’s surface layers, reducing the appearance of dark spots and uneven tone. They promote new skin cell growth and stimulate collagen, leading to a more even complexion. By removing damaged outer layers, peels can lighten sun spots and discoloration, revealing healthier, clearer skin underneath.

Overall Skin Texture and Tone

Chemical peels improve overall skin texture and tone by exfoliating the outer layers, removing dead skin cells, and stimulating collagen production. This process smooths rough or uneven areas and promotes the growth of new, healthy skin cells. As a result, the skin appears more even, radiant, and refreshed, with a reduction in rough patches and discoloration for a brighter complexion.

Chemical Peel Aftercare: How to Care for Your Skin Post-Treatment

A chemical peel is a powerful, skin-renewing treatment that helps improve texture, tone, fine lines, and discoloration. After your appointment at Evercare Wellness & Aesthetics, proper aftercare is essential for a safe recovery and glowing results.

Here’s everything you need to know about how to care for your skin after a chemical peel, including what to avoid and what to use.

✅ What To Do After a Chemical Peel

• Avoid direct sunlight

Your skin will be more sensitive than usual. Wear a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily and avoid prolonged sun exposure.

• Avoid makeup for 24 hours

Give your skin time to breathe and recover without the risk of clogged pores or irritation.

• Skip exfoliants and retinol for 7–10 days

Retinoids, glycolic acid, and other actives can disrupt the healing process and damage freshly treated skin.

• Avoid vigorous workouts, hot tubs, saunas, and steam for 72 hours

Excess heat and sweat can cause irritation or delay healing.

• Stick with gentle skincare only

Use a mild cleanser, fragrance-free moisturizer, sunscreen, and Aquaphor to protect and hydrate the skin barrier.

❌ What NOT To Do After a Chemical Peel

• Don’t pick or peel flaking skin

Let your skin exfoliate naturally. Picking can lead to scarring or hyperpigmentation.

• Don’t use harsh products or tools

Avoid scrubs, cleansing brushes, and anything abrasive until your skin has fully healed.

What to Expect After a Peel

Peeling typically begins 2–3 days post-treatment and may last up to a week, depending on the strength of the peel. You may experience redness, tightness, and dryness—this is all normal. By the end of the peeling process, your skin will look noticeably smoother, brighter, and more refreshed.

FAQs About Chemical Peel Aftercare

When can I wear makeup again?

You can apply makeup after 24 hours, but we recommend waiting until peeling subsides to avoid irritation.

Can I use retinol after my peel?

No—wait 7 to 10 days or until your skin is fully healed before reintroducing active ingredients.

Is it normal for my skin to flake or peel?

Yes! This is a sign the treatment is working. Be patient and resist the urge to pick at flaking skin.

What if I have an event coming up?

Plan your peel at least 10–14 days in advance of any special event to allow for full recovery and glowing results.

What skincare products should I use?

Stick to a gentle cleanser, hydrating moisturizer, SPF, and Aquaphor. Avoid anything with fragrance, acids, or exfoliants.
