Skinmedia And skinbetter Peels

WHAT IS THE SKINMEDICA PEEL?

SkinMedica has developed various chemical peel products to provide specialized skincare solutions. Among these peels are the Rejuvenize Peel, the Vitalize Peel, and the Illuminize Peel. Each of these chemical peels are used to deal with specific skin issues.

The Rejuvenize Peel is the strongest chemical peel product released by SkinMedica. It is used to treat moderate to serious skin imperfections. This chemical peel is appropriate for light to medium skin tones. Depending on the skin issues and beauty goals of the patient, a 3-to-6-session course of treatment is recommended for optimal results.

The Vitalize Peel is the most popular SkinMedica peel product in the country. It deals with mild to moderate skin imperfections. Patients of all skin tones can use this chemical peel. Best results can be observed after 3 to 6 treatment sessions.

The Illuminize Peel is considered to be a “pre-party” chemical peel. The main reason for this is because the patient can get immediate results without visible peeling, giving them glowing skin before their next social event.

WHAT IS THE SKIN BETTER ALPHARET PEEL?

The Skin Better AlphaRet Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel only offered in med spas and cosmetic clinics. It can treat various skin conditions, including skin damage due to sun exposure, early aging signs like wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, blemishes, and other imperfections.

Most patients observed significant results after just a single AlphaRet Peel treatment session. However, multiple treatment sessions may be needed for maximum results.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Both SkinMedica peels and the Skin Better AlphaRet Peel are applied similarly to other chemical peels. First, the patient is prepared for the peel treatment by cleansing the target skin areas. The chosen chemical peel product is then applied onto the target skin areas according to the treatment plan.

The peel is then left to permeate through the skin layers. Finally, the skin is cleansed of the peel to finish the treatment session.

Aftercare varies depending on the depth of the chosen peel. The patient will be given specific aftercare instructions to avoid damaging the treated area and maximize the results. The patient may observe minor bruising, redness, and skin peeling for a time after the treatment.

It will be necessary to apply an effective moisturizer, since the treated skin is typically drier than usual after a peel. It will be important to apply proper sunscreen in order to protect the skin as it heals.

AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE?

Healthy patients of all skin types are candidates for these chemical peel treatments. Patients who have sun damage and early signs of skin aging are excellent candidates for SkinMedica peels and the Skin Better AlphaRet Peel.

Patients who do not want to undergo invasive cosmetic procedures for their skin conditions are ideal candidates for these chemical peels. For best results, candidates must be committed to undergoing the full treatment plan.

BioRePeel

What is the BioRePeel?

The BioRePeelCI3 is a 35% TCA peel that produces virtually no peeling. It can accelerate skin cell turnover and boost collagen and elastin production, producing virtually instant results. This makes it a popular option for patients with busy schedules or an upcoming event who don’t want to experience lengthy peeling. It also helps treat the root problem of aging, producing longer-lasting results than many other chemical peels.

What to Expect

The BioRePeel is applied just like other chemical peels. The solution is applied to clean, prepared skin and left for a predetermined time before it’s neutralized. You may experience slight tingling or burning, but most patients tolerate it well.

Am I a Good Candidate?

PCA Peels

What are PCA Peels?

PCA Peels are a unique variety spanning from superficial to medium depth that can firm and tighten the skin, reduce pigmentation, and fade acne scars. Various formulations are available, but most options are a modified version of a Jessner peel. Our team can help you pick the right option from this industry-leading medical skincare brand.

What to Expect

PCA Peels are applied in layers and left on the skin rather than timed and removed. This lets you build up to a stronger peel by applying more layers. Once your skin is cleansed and free of makeup and oil, the peel will be swiped on and left for a few minutes. If you opt for additional layers, they will be applied on top of the initial layer. Once complete, you can return to the rest of your day.
