Chemical Peels

Chemical Peel Options At AYA^™

Luminage Plus Peel

This superficial peel is for anyone experiencing hyperpigmentation issues, and those who would like to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Age spots, sun spots, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, and melasma often occur with age. This medicated masque, applied by our licensed estheticians, stimulates collagen production which encourages the growth of new, healthy-looking skin. This particular masque is left on the patient’s skin, and they are responsible for its removal. The Luminage Plus Peel also includes an easy-to-follow, at-home regimen that should be strictly followed for optimal results. The pain and irritation associated with this treatment is minimal: some patients’ skin does not peel at all.

Vitalize Peel

This alphahydroxy acid-based peel is recommended to patients with sun damage, fine lines, wrinkles, acne, acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, melasma, or an overall poor skin. This gentle, proven-effective peel improves the skin’s complexion, tone, and texture while also reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Treatment only takes 20 to 30 minutes, and the associated down time is minimal. A series of three Vitalize peels are recommended for maximum cosmetic benefit. For most patients, three-week intervals are recommended between treatments. A consultation with one of our licensed estheticians will determine how many treatments you will need for optimal results.

Luminage Peel

This chemical peel helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. This treatment is much milder than other chemical peels and employs the use of less potent: most patients report only a gentle tingling sensation during treatment. Despite the Luminage Peel’s mild components, it still effectively stimulates collagen production to improve the skin’s texture and tone, reduce fine line and wrinkles, corrects hyperpigmentation, and decreases acne. After a Luminage Peel, you may experience some redness and peeling, but it is less than that of other peels. This peel should be applied by one of our licensed estheticians every two or three weeks for a series of four to six treatments (determined during consultation).

Vi Peel^™

With a blend of phenolic acids, vitamin C, and Retin-A, the Vi Peel^™ will improve the appearance of any skin type with little to no downtime. Patients who choose the Vi Peel^™ will see a reduction in age spots, hyperpigmented lesions (including melasma), and the size of their pores. By stimulating collagen and elastin production, fine lines and wrinkles also decrease. Patients with acne or scars from past acne will also notice clearer skin.

Unlike other chemical peels, the Vi Peel^™ is designed to safely even skin tone and improve the appearance of blemishes and wrinkles on the face and body including the hands, arms, chest, elbows, and even knees. This peel produces results on all skin types and with little to no discomfort. Patients with sensitive skin may experience a stinging sensation during application, but our licensed estheticians use cooling methods, such as a fan, to minimize the sensation. This quick, twenty minute treatment will continue to work by gradually improving the appearance of skin for about a week after the treatment. While you’ll see great results with just one Vi Peel^™, this chemical peel is designed to be used three or four times a year to correct the signs of aging and surface imperfections.

Rejuvenize Peel^™

The Rejuvenize Peel^™ from SkinMedica^® can help smooth the appearance of age signs and skin damage. This peel utilizes a unique mixture to help treat moderate to severe skin imperfections that result from aging and sun damage, including fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and texture. Patients should notice improvement after just one peel, but three to six treatments may be required to achieve the best-possible results.

Illuminize Peel^®

The Illuminize Peel^® is considered the gentlest chemical peel available from SkinMedica^®. This peel can be ideal for first-time, chemical-peel patients who wish to treat more minor skin imperfections or patients trying to achieve brighter, more radiant-looking skin with no downtime. The Illuminize Peel^® is appropriate for all skin types.

Customized Peels

AYA estheticians can customize a peel for any skin type. Using products such as medical-grade glycolic acid, we can rapidly and safely resurface your skin. Peels have several benefits such as reducing fine lines and wrinkles, smoothing and softening the skin, and encouraging cellular renewal. These peels are great for people with Rosacea and can help lighten scars for people with darker skin tones. Our customized peels require no down time and can even be done over the lunch hour.
