Exposing our skin to the sun is an excellent source of numerous health benefits, and the outdoors offers so much to enjoy. However, this can also leave you open to skin damage. Add to that the effects of other environmental factors, and it's not uncommon to want to counteract what we can’t always control. At St. George Med Spa, we offer accessible, thoughtful solutions to your everyday problems. With our selection of chemical peels, you’ll be able to shed layers of skin to reveal an even and refreshed complexion.
By applying a chemical solution to the face, neck, or hands, we can wipe away the effects of damaged skin. Depending on the results you seek, the depth of your chemical peel will be entirely custom for your unique needs by one of our licensed master aestheticians. When the solution is applied to the skin, it actively removes and improves imperfections on your outer skin. You’ll be able to reduce fine lines, treat acne scarring, lighten dark spots, and smooth out your complexion with our medical-grade products.
Keeping up with your medical-grade skincare routine and remembering to apply sunscreen are always the first lines of defense in maintaining healthy skin. With chemical peels St. George patients can add a new treatment to their repertoire. Regain a healthy appearance, improve skin tone, smooth and brighten your complexion, treat minor scarring and different types of acne, reduce wrinkles, and more. Whenever you feel in need of refreshing your appearance, a chemical peel will provide you with the precise boost you want.
Chemical peels are proven to be successful on all skin types, however it is best to come in for a consultation so our licensed master aestheticians can match the right treatment plan for you. Chemical peels are not recommended if you’re pregnant, unable to stay out of the sun during the healing process or have highly sensitive skin.
At our med spa, the atmosphere is everything. We create a relaxing ambiance with music softly playing in the background under dimmed, moody lights. Depending on the depth of your peel, it can take anywhere from 30-90 minutes, so we make sure to keep you as comfortable as possible. Enjoy a soothing facial massage while we cleanse the skin of any excess oils and prep the treatment area. With your hair securely out of place and your eyes safely covered, you’ll begin to feel the warming sensation of the solution wash over you. A slight itchy feeling may follow as the chemicals begin to do their work, but this can easily be alleviated by a fan or cold compress if needed.
Depending on the depth of your peel, there are various degrees of recovery to expect. Some redness will be seen for light peels, much like a sunburn; skin can peel for about three to seven days after your treatment. The treated area will be bandaged for a few days for deeper peels to avoid exposing the sensitive skin while it heals. The recovery for deeper peels may extend to 14-21 days. It is vital not to peel any flaking skin and stay out of the sun while your skin heals. According to your treatment plan, personalized aftercare will be recommended, including applying lotions and moisturizer and daily soaks. Avoid direct sunlight and sunscreen until fully healed.
As the skin heals and sheds off excess layers, you’ll begin to see a fresh glow break through the cracks. The chemical solution is applied evenly during your treatment to ensure your skin tone blends naturally and uniformly. Smoother and softer skin with noticeably reduced wrinkles will show itself more as the healing process continues. For light peels, results can be seen within a few days, and for deeper peels, it takes up to a few weeks. Further treatments can be provided as needed until you obtain the desired result.
When you reveal your most confident self, your inner beauty becomes effortless and unmistakable. That version is always inside you, and we want to help you show that confidence to everyone you meet. We will pick out the perfect treatment plan matched with personalized aftercare. So, if you're interested in a chemical peel St. George area residents or guests are encouraged to contact us today. Let us help make your first impression a lasting one.
The most important ways to prepare your skin are to not exfoliate for at least one week before treatment, avoid exposure to the sun, and keep properly hydrated. More specifics will be based on your specialized treatment plan during your consultation.
Depending on the depth of your peel, it is possible to apply makeup after a day or two. It could be at least a week for deeper peels until the skin’s sensitivity returns to normal.
