Chemical Peels

The spice of life

Indulge in a customized peel designed to rejuvenate and refresh your skin. Chemical peel treatments use a carefully selected solution of exfoliating acids to gently remove the outermost layers of dead or damaged skin. As the skin regenerates, it reveals a smoother, brighter, and more even complexion with improved tone and texture. A chemical peel can be enjoyed as a standalone service, which also includes a custom mask, or paired with other services for enhanced results and a more comprehensive approach. Beyond the face, these treatments may also be performed on the back or other body areas (advance request required).

BioRePeel

Custom Peel

Custom Peel

BioRePeel® is a revolutionary 30% TCA peel that delivers all the benefits of a traditional peel without the heavy peeling or downtime. Unlike conventional TCA peels that work on the skin's surface, BioRePeel is specially formulated to penetrate beyond the the superficial layers, gently dissolving the bonds between dead skin cells. This triggers a controlled peeling action beneath the surface, stimulating cellular turnover and revealing a fresh, smooth, and radiant new layer layer of skin. This advanced medium-depth peel is powered by a blend of 6 acids, 4 amino acids, and essential vitamins C and B2, making it both corrective and restorative. Safe for all skin types, BioRePeel has been clinically proven to reduce or eliminate sun damage, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, melasma, acne, scarring, and uneven texture. This peel can also be done every 7-10 days to speed up results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Good candidates are individuals looking to address acne, signs of aging, texture, scarring, and hyperpigmentation.


While chemical peels are safe and effective for most people, some individuals may not be ideal candidates due to factors that could increase risks or impact results. Medical clearance may be required for certain conditions. Please consult with your healthcare provider if you are unsure. Precautions to consider:


  • Pregnancy.
  • Patients who are undergoing treatment for skin cancer. 
  • Accutane - must wait at least 6 months.
  • Compromised skin (dermatitis, sunburn, open wounds or sores, infection) in the treatment area.
  • Autoimmune conditions that affect skin healing (like lupus or active vitiligo) - consult with your healthcare provider first.


Improvements are often visible shortly after the first treatment, with more significant results after subsequent sessions. For best results, a series of 4-6 treatments in 1-4 week intervals is usually recommended.


Lighter peels may require maintenance treatments every 1-2 months, while deeper peels offer results that can last several months, depending on the individual’s skin care routine and condition.


Lighter peels and BioRePeel typically have zero to minimal downtime, while deeper peels have significantly more downtime ranging from a few days to a week or more. There may be redness, dryness, and peeling as side effects.  With deeper peels, freckles and sunspots may initially turn slightly darker and then lighten within a few days. This is normal and part of the process.


It involves applying a chemical solution to your skin and leaving it on for a certain period, causing it to exfoliate and possibly peel off. The active ingredients might cause a slight stinging or burning sensation during the application, which usually subsides once the peel takes effect.


Before + After Care

  • Avoid direct sun exposure, including tanning beds, for at least 3 days prior to treatment. Use SPF 30+ if sun exposure is unavoidable.
  • Avoid skin irritants (products containing tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide or acne medications, vitamin C if strong or acidic, hydroquinone, AHAs, BHAs, astringents, depilatories, waxing, etc.) or any other exfoliating products in the treatment area for at least 7 days prior to treatment.
  • Wait at least 5-10 days after Botox or filler before receiving a chemical peel.


  • Limited activity and exercise is advised, as well as no sweating, excessive heat, swimming, hot showers, and sauna use for at least 48 hours or until skin is fully healed.
  • Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 1 week following treatment. Keep the area covered and apply a broad spectrum (UVA/UVB) SPF 30+ to treatment area.
  • Avoid artificial tanning (spray tans, tanning lotions, etc.) and skin irritants (products containing tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide or acne medications, vitamin C if strong or acidic, hydroquinone, AHAs, BHAs, astringents, depilatories, waxing, etc.) or any other exfoliating products in the treatment area for at least 5 days or until skin is fully healed.
  • Light or mineral makeup may be applied immediately after as long as skin integrity has not been compromised.
