CHEMICAL PEELS

What Are Chemical Peels, and Which Do You Offer?

Chemical peels are specialized treatments that use tailored formulations to exfoliate the skin, revealing a smoother and more radiant layer beneath. The peeling process works by removing the damaged outer layers of the skin to encourage the growth of new, healthy skin cells. This not only improves the skin’s texture and tone but also stimulates collagen production, which enhances the skin’s overall appearance.

At Artemis 22, we offer a variety of chemical peels to address different skin concerns:

• PRX Derm Perfexion: A revitalizing treatment with no downtime, designed to hydrate and tighten the skin for an immediate, noticeable glow. This peel is great for those looking for a non-invasive option with quick results.

• Cosmelan MD: A powerful peel specifically targeting hyperpigmentation, sun spots, and melasma, leaving you with a more even and uniform skin tone. This treatment is ideal for patients struggling with discoloration or uneven skin tone.

• The Perfect Derma Peel: A versatile peel that reduces signs of aging, acne scars, and discoloration, restoring a youthful, fresh appearance. It addresses a wide range of concerns, including texture, pigmentation, and fine lines.

What Can Chemical Peels Treat?

Our range of chemical peels can address multiple skin concerns, including:

• Uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation: Discoloration from sun damage, melasma, or acne scars can leave your skin looking patchy and uneven. Chemical peels help lighten these areas and create a more uniform complexion.

• Fine lines and wrinkles: By promoting collagen production, chemical peels smooth out the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving the skin a more youthful appearance.

• Sun damage: Excessive sun exposure can lead to premature aging, including sun spots and rough skin. Chemical peels help reverse these effects by removing damaged skin layers.

• Acne scars: Whether you have shallow scars from past acne breakouts or more pronounced indentations, chemical peels can reduce their appearance by encouraging new skin growth.

• Dull or rough skin texture: Chemical peels help rejuvenate your skin by removing dead skin cells, revealing a brighter and smoother complexion beneath.

The Procedure

Our chemical peel process is thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort and results. Here’s what you can expect from your experience at Artemis 22:

1. Consultation: We begin with a comprehensive consultation to understand your skin goals and concerns. During this meeting, our physicians will assess your skin type, review your medical history, and discuss which peel is best suited for your needs. This personalized approach ensures that the treatment plan is tailored to achieve your desired results.

2. Preparation: Before the peel is applied, your skin is prepped to ensure optimal penetration of the treatment. This may include a thorough cleansing and the application of any pre-peel products that target specific concerns, such as pigmentation or aging.

3. Application: The selected chemical peel is expertly applied by our physicians. Depending on the type of peel used, you may experience mild tingling or warmth, but the procedure is generally well-tolerated and involves minimal discomfort.

4. Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, we guide you through a tailored skincare regimen designed to support healing and enhance your skin’s rejuvenation. Proper aftercare is essential to achieving the best results and ensuring your skin remains healthy and glowing.

Recovery and Results

The recovery process and results will vary depending on the type of peel you receive:

• PRX Derm Perfexion: This peel offers immediate radiance with no downtime, making it a perfect option for those who want to see quick results without any disruption to their routine.

• Cosmelan MD & The Perfect Derma Peel: These peels may involve light peeling for a few days as your skin renews itself, revealing a fresh, vibrant complexion underneath. During this time, you may experience some mild flaking or redness, but these side effects are temporary and typically subside within a week.

• Minimal Downtime: Most patients resume their daily activities shortly after their treatment, with some adjustments to their skincare routine to support the healing process. We’ll provide you with specific aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible outcome.
