Chemical Peels
Medical grade chemical peels combat aging, acne, enlarged pores, skin texture issues and rosacea. We’ll design a custom peel program to suit your specific needs. FUZION uses over twenty different medically rated compounds to custom-blend your perfect peel. Transform your complexion with a series of peels.
A chemical peel is the application of a liquid to the surface of the skin that dissolves the top layers of skin, resulting in an exfoliation of these top layers. Chemical peels are used to improve the appearance of the skin by treating discoloration and uneven pigmentation, fine wrinkling, acne, and mild acne scarring. By removing the top, older layers of skin which make the complexion appear dull, chemical peels enable light to reflect more evenly off the skin surface and the skin looks more vibrant and fresh. Chemical peels also allow your skin care products to work more effectively because they are better able to penetrate into the skin after a chemical peel exfoliation. The degree of improvement that can be expected after a chemical peel varies according to your skin type, the severity of the problem, and the strength of chemical solution used.
During a chemical peel, many patients report feeling warmth, tingling or a slight burning sensation during the process, which may last approximately 2 to 5 minutes. Immediately after the treatment, the skin may feel slightly tight and/or appear rosy. The degree of peeling and the amount of redness varies from invisible to noticeable, depending on your skin type and the solution used. With the most common type of peels, glycolic acid peels, peeling usually begins 1 to 3 days after the treatment and may continue through days 5-7. Deeper peels may cause a more persistent redness and more significant peeling that may last up to 10-14 days. There may be slight swelling, particularly around the eyes, which is relieved with ice packs. It is also common to see temporary darkening of the skin, especially in patients whose skin is naturally dark, which may last until the peeling is complete.
Complications are uncommon and include scarring due to poor wound healing, skin discoloration that does not blend with normal pigmentation, allergic reaction, wind or sun sensitivity, and infection. If you have a history of herpes of the lips or mouth the medical team at FUZION may prescribe an oral antiviral medication to prevent an outbreak. Do not apply any drying or irritating products (retinoids, glycolic acids, bleaching creams, etc.) until the healing process is complete. You will notice a subtle improvement in your skin after each peel. Depending on the type of peel that you are receiving, you may have repeat treatments every 2 to 4 weeks.
