Suffolk’s Best Chemical Peel Treatment

What is the chemical peel procedure like?

Your certified medical professional will begin with a consultation to discuss your concerns, evaluate your skin, and review your chemical peel options.

The peel process begins with a thorough cleansing of the skin to remove any oil, makeup, or impurities. Next, the selected medical-grade peel solution—from Skin Therapeutics, Epionce, or VI Peel—is applied evenly to the treatment area. Depending on the type and strength of the peel, you may feel a mild tingling or warming sensation as the solution works to remove damaged outer skin layers and stimulate new cell turnover. Some peels are neutralized after a set time, while others continue working on the skin and self-neutralize over the next several hours.

Once the peel has been applied and processed, a soothing serum and sunscreen are applied to the skin to protect and calm the treated area. The entire procedure takes 30–45 minutes, making it an easy, effective way to refresh and improve skin tone, texture, and clarity.

Chemical Peel Recovery

Recovery depends on the depth of the peel:

  • Light peels (Epionce, mild Skin Therapeutics peels) – Expect slight redness and dryness for 1–3 days.
  • Medium peels (VI Peel, stronger Skin Therapeutics peels) – Skin may peel or flake for 4-6 days.

To ensure optimal healing, patients should avoid sun exposure, exfoliation, and harsh skincare products for at least one week. Using gentle cleansers, moisturizers, and SPF helps maintain results.

Chemical Peel Results

After a chemical peel, your skin will gradually reveal a brighter, smoother, and more even complexion. Within a few days, you may notice mild flaking or peeling as the outer layer of dead skin sheds, making way for fresh, healthy skin underneath.

Depending on the strength of your peel, initial improvements can appear in as little as 3–6 days. If you’re targeting acne scars, fine lines, or sun damage, deeper peels will deliver more dramatic results over time, with continued improvements as new collagen forms and your skin regenerates. For optimal results, a series of peels may be recommended, especially if you’re treating stubborn discoloration, persistent breakouts, or signs of aging.

Chemical peels are safe, pain-free, and a great way to improve the look and feel of your skin. Schedule a consultation today to discover the best chemical peel for your skin!
