What Is A Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a medical-grade facial treatment formulated from skin-safe chemical solutions, including salicylic, glycolic, lactic, and trichloroacetic acids. Not all chemical peels are made alike, which is why Georgetown Allure Medical Spa is pleased to offer a selection of chemical peel options designed to address different skin concerns. Using a customized blend, our aestheticians can exfoliate and refresh your skin while targeting specific issues for optimal results. Whether you want to address scars, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, rough skin, or various signs of aging, our team can find the solution for you. Schedule a consultation at our Washington, D.C. medical spa to start your personalized skin treatment.
What Are My Treatment Options?
We offer a variety of customizable chemical peels at Georgetown Allure Medical Spa, each one designed for a specific purpose:
- Acne Scars and Large Pores: This blend features a combination of alpha- and beta-hydroxy acids to exfoliate dead skin cells, clearing out a major source of acne breakouts. The exfoliation process also helps create a smoother skin texture, diminishing the visibility of fine lines and acne scarring.
- Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Made from a blend of alpha- and beta-hydroxy acids, as well as trichloroacetic acid, this chemical peel exfoliates the top layer of skin, promoting healing while minimizing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other common imperfections. As with any treatment, we can customize your blend to suit your skin's needs.
- Pigmentation and Discoloration: This treatment effectively improves the appearance of pigmentation and discoloration by removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, stimulating new growth for a more even, radiant complexion.
- Lunchtime Peel: This peel gets its name from the fact that it can be done in just 30 minutes with no recovery time needed, making it a perfect option for those with busy schedules. Pamper your skin and soothe your body as our aestheticians apply a personalized solution designed to help you attain a more youthful, radiant complexion.
- Vitalize Peel: The Vitalize Peel features a blend of alpha- and beta-hydroxy acids, resorcinol, and retinoic acid. This medical-grade chemical peel essentially does it all, penetrating deep into the skin to boost collagen growth for a smoother, more youthful complexion. The Vitalize Peel is an effective option for diminishing the appearance of hyperpigmentation, scarring, sun damage, and fine lines and wrinkles.
During your consultation at our Washington, D.C. office, we'll review all of your concerns and get a detailed picture of your skin's health to determine which blend is best for your needs.
How Does A Chemical Peel Treatment Work?
During your appointment, we'll have you lie back and relax as our aestheticians apply the selected chemical peel blend to your face. After allowing the peel to do its work for a set period of time, we'll cleanse your skin and apply a neutralizing solution. Once we're done, you can get right back to your day. Chemical peel treatments at Georgetown Allure Medical Spa usually take 30 – 60 minutes — though you may wish you could stay longer after experiencing our soothing spa environment.
After your chemical peel, you can expect your skin to flake and peel for a short period. It's important to avoid picking or scratching at your skin, as this can disrupt the healing process. You should also take care to avoid any exfoliating skin products, cosmetics, or sun exposure as your skin recovers. Before you leave, our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to help you get the most from your treatment.
What Are the Benefits of Chemical Peel Treatments?
With so many blends to choose from and a variety of customization options, chemical peels can open up endless possibilities for skin rejuvenation. Here are just some of the benefits you can expect from your treatment:
- Improvements in your skin's health and hydration
- Renewed growth and healing
- Reduction of various skin imperfections and signs of aging
- A brighter, more even complexion
- Enhanced skin texture
- Improved skin elasticity
- Little to no downtime for recovery
Chemical Peel Reviews
I had a lovely Collagen Lifting facial with Jhovonnah. She is very gentle and I was so relaxed. This treatment included a micro current pulse with all anti-aging products such as retinol, vitamins C & cleansing, a mask and steam and a hand and neck massage etc. I immediately booked another session for a chemical peel and I look forward to returning. Thank you Jhovonnah!
