Chemical peels by SkinMedica allow White Plains clients to restore a youthful and healthy appearance to their skin. These superficial chemical peels address signs of aging and sun damage by gently exfoliating dead and damaged skin cells. SkinMedica chemical peels can be used safely for clients of all skin types.
Illuminize Peel
The Illuminize Peel is an excellent option for treatment of mild skin issues. It reduces dullness, helping skin look brighter and more youthful. This peel is a great choice for clients who are new to chemical peels.
Clients can come in for an Illuminize Peel treatment every two weeks until they are satisfied with the degree of skin rejuvenation achieved. This treatment causes little to no visible skin peeling, allowing clients to get back to their regular activities quickly.
Vitalize Peel
The Vitalize Peel is an ideal choice for treatment of mild to moderate skin imperfections like fine age lines, uneven complexion, and roughness. Multiple peel treatment sessions will be needed to achieve optimal results.
Rejuvenize Peel
Clients can come in for a Rejuvenize Peel to treat moderate to deep skin problems like wrinkles and texture issues. Typically, a series of three to six Rejuvenize Peel treatment sessions is recommended. It will be necessary to wait four to six weeks between sessions.
Your Consultation
At Alessi Medical Spa, clients meet with a skincare expert, who examines their skin to develop an understanding of its type and texture. Clients go over their aesthetic goals, skincare routine, and complete medical history, including past treatments and allergies.
Next, the skincare expert describes the benefits of each SkinMedica peel and then recommends the best option for the client. They discuss the details of the treatment process, including aftercare and the optimal number of sessions. Clients are encouraged to ask questions regarding their peel treatment.
Preparing for Your SkinMedica Chemical Peel
Before your SkinMedica chemical peel treatment session, you will need to prepare properly. For a week beforehand, do not undergo laser hair removal, waxing, or electrolysis, and avoid using hair-removal creams.
Three days before the date of your treatment session, it will be best to avoid skin products with retinol, benzoyl peroxide, or alpha-hydroxy or beta-hydroxy acids. Using exfoliating skin products can result in overly sensitive skin before the treatment.
What Is a SkinMedica Chemical Peel Like?
The SkinMedica chemical peel treatment process is very simple. First, the client’s face is cleansed of any products. Next, the chosen chemical peel is applied to the skin. A period of time passes, during which the chemical solution soaks into the skin layers.
Chemical Peel Aftercare
After getting a SkinMedica chemical peel, minor swelling and redness may be experienced. Peeling or flaking may be experienced during the recovery process. Avoid pulling or scratching at the skin as it peels; instead, let it slough away naturally.
It will be important to apply sunscreen of at least SPF 30. Avoiding direct sunlight for around a week is vital, since the skin will temporarily be more prone to sun damage. Patients must use gentle cleansers and avoid scrubbing their skin. Moisturizing properly is key while the skin recovers.
Once all peeling is complete and the skin has fully recovered, clients can undergo additional skin treatments and return to use of exfoliating skin products as desired.
How Much Do Chemical Peels by SkinMedica Cost?
The price of your SkinMedica chemical peel will depend on the specific peel chosen. Additional factors that may affect cost include the number of treatment sessions and the client’s aesthetic needs and goals.
