Chemical Peels are a type of non-invasive skin treatment designed to remove the outer layer of dead skin cells. They can range from mild to strong in strength & type of the acid/ingredients used. While most are great for most skin types and most basic skin concerns, they can be specialized to suit your skin concerns.
At Woodglen Aesthetics, we use a variety of Chemical Peels containing ingredients that can include: Pumpkin enzymes, salycylic acids, plant enzymes, antioxidants, enhanced Jessner’s (with Hydroquinone and Resorcinol) and TC A’s. The only way to determine which chemical peel would be best for your skin is to schedule a free consultation with our Medical Esthetician, Glennda, so she can perform a thorough evaluation of your skin.
