Rejuvenize™: The Rejuvenize™ peel is the strongest of the three peels and the best for anti-aging. It penetrates deep into the topmost layers of skin thoroughly drying and agitating the visible layer of skin, causing it to flake away and reveal a younger, healthier complexion underneath. It works well for moderate to severe skin conditions.
Things to Know About Peels
No matter what kind of peel you receive, they all have a few similar traits that you should be aware of before you have your treatment. Here are a few things to keep in mind about chemical peels.
- Peeling times may vary: While different peels will react to the skin differently, and everyone’s complexion is unique, most peels will start to flake off between 5-7 days post-treatment, and you can expect your skin to peel for about a week, on average.
- Avoiding sun exposure: It is important to avoid excessive sun exposure for 10 days prior to your peel treatment, as well as for 10-14 days after your treatment.
- Results will vary: While some peels will give great results after just one treatment, peels often require a series of 3 or more treatments spaced out to receive optimal results.
- Peels are often the first step: Depending on the condition of your skin, a chemical peel may just be the first step in a larger treatment plan. Peels are great for improving superficial skin imperfections, however, deeper issues may require various other treatments like resurfacing or laser. A series of chemical peels can be a great way to prep your skin for bigger treatments.
