Choose the right skin type for 30 skintonesInterested in incorporating a chemical peel into your regular skincare routine? Here we’ll give you some guidelines on how to safely do so and achieve the skin of your dreams!

Light Chemical Peel

The light-strength version of a chemical Peel is best for those with sensitive skin types or new users who are looking to achieve results with minimal to no downtime. Light chemical peels are great to address the following skin care concerns:

  • Fine lines
  • Mild scarring
  • Excess oil production
  • Acne symptoms
  • Mild hyperpigmentation

How often you apply a light chemical peel depends on your skin type and the severity of the skincare concerns you are trying to address. However, for most, the best results are achieved when scheduling light chemical peels every 2 weeks for a series of 6-8 treatments.

Medium Chemical Peel

Medium-strength chemical peels are recommended for experienced peelers and new users with non-sensitive skin types who are looking for mild to moderate downtime (TCA 20% and Salicylic 20% chemical peels are not recommended for new users). 

Downtime on medium strength chemical peels varies depending on acid type. The medium strength peels penetrate a bit deeper to help address the following skincare concerns:

  • Clear pores
  • Minimize fine lines & wrinkles
  • Help prevent acne & breakouts
  • Reduce sun damage

How often you apply a medium chemical peel depends on your skin type and severity of the skincare concerns you are trying to address. However, as a general rule, it’s recommended that you repeat every 2-4 weeks, depending on the acid of choice, for a series of 5-7 treatments.

Deep Chemical Peel

Deep strength chemical peels consist of the highest acid percentage in a given category. While these are the strongest in their category, it is important to note that each acid category penetrates the skin on different levels.  

Deep chemical peels are designed to aggressively treat moderate skin concerns:

  • Acne scarring
  • Deep wrinkles and lines
  • Significant hyperpigmentation
  • Skin sagging

How often you apply a deep chemical peel depends on your skin type and severity of the skincare concerns you are trying to address. However, with the exception of the Glycolic 70% and Vitamin C 70%, deep chemical peels can be repeated every 2 weeks for a series of 4-6 treatments.
