If you've ever looked in the mirror and wished for smoother, clearer, more radiant skin, chemical peels might just be your new best friend. At our Med Spa in Houston chemical peels are tried-and-true ways to address virtually any skin issue. Completely customized to your anatomy, lifestyle, and specific skin issues, these treatments offer an incredible way to erase imperfections and restore your glowing complexion.
Dr. Sukkar, a board-certified plastic surgeon with years of expertise, leads a skilled team that specializes in non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatments like chemical peels. From light peels that refresh your complexion to deeper treatments that transform it, our goal is simple: to leave you glowing with confidence.
A chemical peel is a skin-resurfacing treatment that uses a carefully formulated acid solution to exfoliate and remove the outer layers of damaged skin. Think of it as hitting the "reset" button for your complexion. By encouraging cell turnover, chemical peels help to reveal the smoother, fresher skin underneath.
There's a peel for everyone, whether you're looking for a gentle refresh or a more intensive transformation. Peels come in three main types: light, medium, and deep. Light peels use mild acids to gently improve skin texture, while medium and deep peels target more severe issues like deep wrinkles or pronounced sun damage. The beauty of this treatment is its versatility—it can be customized to meet your specific needs.
Chemical peels come in a range of strengths, each tailored to address specific skin concerns. Whether you're looking for a gentle refresh or a dramatic transformation, there's a peel for you. Here's a closer look at the three main types of chemical peels we offer:
Our light chemical peels are the easiest to tolerate. Also known as glycolic or AHA peels, this option gently removes the top layer of your skin to encourage your body to rejuvenate itself from the inside out. In this way, it improves the appearance of fine lines, acne, dry skin, and pigmentation issues. The actual treatment is very comfortable, and you won't experience much skin redness or irritation afterward. In general, you'll be able to resume your normal daily routine immediately after your appointment. However, you'll likely require multiple sessions to achieve optimal results.
Also known as TCA (trichloroacetic acid) peels, medium chemical peels offer a terrific way to treat acne scars, uneven texture, pigmentation issues, and fine lines. The treatment can be completed in just 15 minutes, and it will produce visible and long-lasting results. Within just one week, your dull outer layer of skin will slough off, and your new and glowing complexion will be revealed.
Also known as a phenol peel, deep chemical peels are very aggressive treatments. They are designed to penetrate the deepest layers of the skin to reverse severe imperfections, like very sun-damaged skin, deep wrinkles, and acne scars. These peels are so powerful that they produce the most dramatic results in just one treatment. However, they are associated with a substantial recovery period. You'll need to rest at home for at least one week as the top layer of your skin flakes off to reveal a brand-new layer of undamaged pink skin underneath.
Chemical peels are a skincare powerhouse, offering a wide range of benefits for anyone looking to rejuvenate their skin. Some of the most notable advantages include:
Beyond the immediate effects, regular chemical peels can improve your skin's overall health and appearance, leaving it more resilient and radiant with each session.
Chemical peels are incredibly versatile, but they aren't a one-size-fits-all treatment. If you're struggling with issues like fine lines, acne scars, uneven skin tone, or sun damage, chances are you're a great candidate. Peels are also perfect for those who want a noticeable improvement without invasive procedures.
However, not everyone is an ideal candidate. If you have active skin conditions like eczema, rosacea, or an infection, it's best to address those concerns before scheduling a peel. Likewise, those with highly sensitive skin, recent sunburns, or who are pregnant may need to explore alternative options. During your consultation, we'll help you determine if a chemical peel is right for you.
Chemical peels are a multitasking treatment, tackling a variety of skin concerns, such as:
Whether you're focused on a single issue or a combination of concerns, we'll design a peel that fits your needs.
A chemical peel isn't just a treatment—it's an experience tailored to you. During your consultation at The Clinic for Plastic Surgery and PS Med Spa, we'll examine your skin, discuss your goals, and help you decide which type of peel is the best fit.
Preparation is key to the best results. In the days leading up to your peel, we recommend:
The process is simple, effective, and designed with your comfort in mind. Once your skin is cleansed, a chemical solution is applied to your face, targeting the areas in need of rejuvenation. Depending on the type of peel, this solution may stay on for just a few minutes or longer.
During the treatment, you might feel a mild tingling or warming sensation as the solution works its magic. Once the peel is complete, we'll neutralize the acids and apply a soothing ointment to calm and protect your skin. The entire session typically takes 30 minutes to an hour, making it a convenient option for even the busiest schedules.
One of the best parts of a chemical peel is the dramatic improvement you'll see in your skin. Light peels may leave you glowing right away, while deeper peels reveal their full effects after your skin has healed.
