Chemical Peels

Skin resurfacing with Chemical Peels

Chemical peels, also known as facial peels, are a simple, non-surgical way to improve the appearance and texture of the skin. Chemical peels, along with medical facials at our office are effective for the removal of fine wrinkles around the mouth, cheeks, eyes, and forehead. A partial peel may be combined with other facial treatments such as Botox or dermal fillers to enhance results.

At our Midtown Manhattan, New York city office we offer a selection of medical grade chemical peels by Allergan. Ranging from superficial to deep peels, they treat a number of skin conditions, including aging and sun damaged skin, uneven skin tone, fine lines and wrinkles, acne and acne scarring, facial blemishes, dry patches, and can be used to diminish brown skin discoloration, as well as irregular pigmentation.

A chemical peel dissolves the dead skin cells on the surface of the skin that clog the pores and contribute to acne formation. By removing dead skin cells at the surface, chemical peels revitalize lackluster skin. Chemical agents also stimulate the generation of new skin cells during the healing process. A series of chemical peels can also help stimulate collagen production underneath the skin. Skin that has been maintained with chemical peels can achieve a smooth, fresh, and healthy-looking glow.
