Chemical Peels are for every skin concern and can get you to your glowiest state if received monthly! Peels are formulated so beautifully nowadays that you might not even flake post chemical peel.
Frequency of visit : We recommend a treatment every two to four weeks at The Skin Therapist depending on what concern we are treating.
Plan of execution
After your consultation, we decide if your skin is ready for a first time peel. Sometimes, we have to send clients home with a routine to help build their skin up to peels. If this is the case, no worries because we have mild enzymes that will still help us achieve results and get your skin ready for something a little bit stronger at your next appointment. After returning to The Skin Therapist post chemical peel, we check your results and boost your peel as your skin acclimates.
