Facial Peels

A chemical peel is a skin-resurfacing procedure. Depending on the issues you're addressing with the procedure, you'll choose a chemical peel in one of three depths:

  • Light chemical peel. A light (superficial) chemical peel removes the outer layer of skin (epidermis). It's used to treat fine wrinkles, acne, uneven skin tone and dryness. You might have a light peel every two to five weeks

  • Medium chemical peel. A medium chemical peel removes skin cells from the epidermis and from portions of the upper part of your middle layer of skin (dermis). It's used to treat wrinkles, acne scars and uneven skin tone. You might need to repeat the procedure to achieve or maintain the desired result.

  • Deep chemical peel. A deep chemical peel removes skin cells even deeper. Your doctor might recommend one for deeper wrinkles, scars or precancerous growths. You won't need repeat procedures to get the full effect.

Microdermabrasion

We offer both diamond dermabrasion and hydrodermabrasion. Diamond dermabrasion abrades the skin like gentle sandpaper to remove dead skin cells, resurface the skin, treat hyperpigmentation, and even skin tone. Hydrodermabrasion combines the natural benefits of oxygen and water to shoot a pressurized stream of saline solution onto the skin. The high velocity of this procedure effectively removes dead skin cells at first contact, exfoliating and soothing the skin. After treatment, skin is left looking refreshed, hydrated, and smooth.

Microneedling

Known as collagen induction therapy, is a skin treatment in which tiny needles penetrate the skin in order to create superficial wounds that stimulate the production of collagen and other growth factors. By stimulating collagen growth with microneedling, the newly formed tissue gets replaced with stronger collagen and elastin, and the dermis contracts to create more youthful and firm skin.
