As there are different skin types, which include the sensitive ones that are prone to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (darkening or redness of the skin).  Before undergoing a pre-treatment before the chemical peel treatment procedure is recommended for such skin types to be pretreated for optimal result. This is advisable so as to get an optimal result and reduce the chances of downtime.

The chemical peels address different acne conditions. It is an excellent procedure to get rid of underlying acne and clear old and stubborn acne. You don’t have to worry about the aftermath of redness, as we use Salicylic Acid to reduce it leaving you with smooth and supple skin. It is an unharmful procedure suitable for all skin types. We normally suggest drug-free supplements, that will minimize new reappearance in as short as 2 days. These supplements are most effective for those with cystic or hormonal acne.

With MD Ultimate Peel, we utilize an effective prescription strength Retin A to scrape off the older outer skin layer, to show younger and fresher new skin. Micro peels continue to revitalize your skin, leaving your skin fresh for several months. We often suggest getting the peel done two times a year.

Chemical Peel Treatment FAQs

You may have wondered about Chemical Peel Treatment. If it's what you need or how it works.

We carry out several types of peel procedures, for different skin issues and types, at MD Laser and Cosmetics Center. We have a wide combination of trichloroacetic acid, retinol, glycolic, prescription-strength retinoic acid, resorcinol, salicylic, and lactic acid peels.

Experiencing a skin peel does not always happen after a chemical peel. You may not experience a skin peel after the procedure, depending on the amount of old and dead skin on your body, and the type of peel.

The number of chemical pees procedures to be carried out on you depends on your desired and expected result, as well as the diagnosis. Generally, to renew the skin texture, 1-3 procedures within a year are suggested. The actual number will be let known during your consultation with Dr. Susan Lin.

The downtime duration is largely dependent on the type of chemical peel treatment procedure carried out. While some simple peels will renew, hydrate, and brighten your skin immediately after the procedure, others will cause skin peeling for 1 week after the procedure.
