All About Peels

A chemical peel is a technique used to improve and smooth the texture of the skin. Facial skin is mostly treated, and scarring can be improved. Chemical peels are intended to remove the outermost layers of the skin. To accomplish this task, the chosen peel solution induces a controlled injury to the skin.

At AAC we feature several options when it comes to peels.

ViPeel

A VI Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel that penetrates your top layer of skin, called the epidermis, reaching into the dermis underneath.

Like other chemical peels, a VI Peel works by exfoliating your skin and stimulating the production of new proteins. The procedure is commonly used to treat signs of aging, improve skin texture, and correct pigmentary issues.

SkinBetter Peel

The AlphaRet Professional Peel is a highly tolerated procedure designed for mild photo damage, inflammation, and acne. The patented AlphaRet technology contains a proprietary blend of lactic, glycolic, and salicylic offered at 30% or 50% potency. This is a perfect lunch-time peel to have glowing skin for an event or a weekend out. Typically, three treatments spaced two weeks apart are needed to achieve optimal results.
