Medical Grade Peels

At Emerald City Beauty, we use the VI Peel Suite. Depending on the mutual goals discussed between patient and provider, the best chemical peel will be decided to help you achieve your skin objectives. A medical grade chemical peel is typically applied to the skin with solutions of varying concentrations such as salicylic acid, TCA, retinoic acid and/or glycolic acid. The chemical solution works both on the skin’s epidermis and dermis layers. These solutions will cause your skin to exfoliate (shed dead cells) for anything from 2-7 days enabling new skin growth to appear. Some peels include lightening agents to reduce hyperpigmentation at the same time.

Most medium depth peels have minimal to no discomfort and can be done in 30 minutes as an office procedure.

To see the optimal results, we usually recommend 3 peels a month apart and then one after 4-6 months. Some peels require additional home application for the first 24-48 hours to optimize results. Increased sun sensitivity is a factor post peel. Your provider will propose the best sunscreen for your skin type to give you maximum protection.
