Chemical Peels at Sola Vie

What is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a skin-resurfacing procedure that uses a chemical solution to remove the top layers of skin. This treatment helps to improve the appearance of the skin by reducing wrinkles, scars, and uneven skin tone. Chemical peels can vary in intensity, from light to deep, depending on the desired results and the specific skin concerns being addressed.

Who is a Good Candidate for a Chemical Peel?

Chemical peels are suitable for individuals looking to address specific skin concerns such as acne scars, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and uneven skin texture. A consultation with our skincare professionals will help determine the best peel for your skin type and goals.

How Should I Prepare for a Chemical Peel?

Preparation for a chemical peel may include avoiding certain skincare products, such as retinoids and exfoliants, for a few days before the treatment. Our team will provide specific instructions tailored to your chosen peel to ensure optimal results.

What Should I Expect During My Chemical Peel Recovery?

Recovery time varies depending on the type of peel received. Light peels may result in minimal redness and peeling, while deeper peels may require a longer recovery period. It's important to follow post-treatment care instructions provided by our team to promote healing and achieve the best results.

What Does the Process of a Chemical Peel Look Like?

The chemical peel process typically involves cleansing the skin, applying the chemical solution, and allowing it to work on the skin for a set time. You may experience a tingling sensation as the solution works. After the peel, a neutralizing solution is applied, and post-treatment care instructions are provided.
