At Aspire Aesthetics in Hendersonville, TN, we offer several types of chemical peels of varying strengths to meet the needs of our patients with different skin care concerns and skin types. These exfoliating treatments can combat the signs of aging while also brightening the complexion and eliminating the dead skin cell barrier that keeps you from experiencing a healthy and vibrant glow.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels use a combination of acids to dissolve the top layer of skin. They eliminate dead, damaged skin cells during treatment to promote healthy, youthful skin. Since different patients have unique skin care goals and different skin types, we offer chemical peels of different strengths to help each of our patients achieve a flawless complexion.
We offer various light and medium-depth peels. You will see results after just one treatment, but chemical peels are meant to be scheduled monthly or bi-monthly as needed to give your skin an exfoliating treatment and brighten your complexion.
How They Work
Before your chemical peel, we will cleanse your skin and then apply a specific chemical solution to your skin. We will leave it on for a set period of time and then remove it. As it sits on the skin’s surface, it dissolves skin cells and removes the top or both top and middle layers.
The body responds to the treatment with a healing reaction and replaces damaged skin cells with healthier, younger cells. Depending on the strength of your peel, you may experience peeling, which is a completely normal reaction that proves the treatment is working. Lighter peels require minimal to zero downtime, while deeper peels may require some downtime.
The Treatment Benefits
Chemical peels have many benefits, which is why they are such foundational and staple skin care treatments that everyone should schedule routinely to promote a healthy complexion. Specifically, a chemical peel can:
- Improve skin texture
- Shrink pores
- Promote an even skin tone by addressing and correcting discoloration
- Reduce the signs of aging, including lines and wrinkles
- Tighten and tone skin
- Help treat and prevent breakouts
- Improve the appearance of acne scars
- Restore a youthful glow to the complexion
- Reverse sun damage
Our Treatment Options
We believe that patients with every skin type should schedule a chemical peel to promote healthier skin, which is why we offer different options to meet all our patients’ needs. Some patients have sensitive or reactive skin and cannot tolerate certain peels, which is why we offer safe options for all skin types.
Other patients have more problematic skin conditions requiring a deeper level of exfoliation; if that’s the case, we can use a specific peel to accommodate those needs. Regardless of your skin type or your skin care goals, we can design a treatment plan with a chemical peel that’s right for you so you can experience all the benefits of chemical exfoliation.
The Superficial Peel
Our superficial peel is a light peel. It contains the least potent combination of acids, and it’s a good option for those with more sensitive skin or those who have never experienced a chemical peel before. Our superficial peel can help fight the signs of aging by removing the outer layer of the skin, also known as the epidermis.
Those who suffer from dry, dehydrated, or acne-prone skin can benefit from a superficial peel. Additionally, those who have noticed some finer lines and wrinkles can benefit from this peel, which will help promote youthful-looking skin. The superficial peel can be scheduled monthly or even bi-monthly to promote a healthy complexion.
The Medium Peel
Our medium peel contains a higher concentration of acids and penetrates beyond the epidermis, removing both the top layer and some of the middle layers of the skin, known as the dermis. This peel is a good option for patients with more advanced signs of aging or more severe skin concerns.
Medium peels can help treat more noticeable lines and wrinkles, reduce the appearance of acne scars, and help eliminate different types of hyperpigmentation from the complexion.
Alpha and Beta Hydroxy Acid Peels
Our alpha and beta hydroxy acid peels are designed specifically for those with skin texture concerns or who suffer from acne. These peels use salicylic acid and other effective acids to dissolve dead skin cells and clear the pores from the inside out. They also promote increased cellular turnover and can resurface the skin to create a bright and even complexion.
Glytone Peels
We also offer professional peels from Glytone, a reputable professional medical-grade skincare company that has designed some incredible skin-perfecting products, including chemical peels. Glytone peels use a combination of acids to exfoliate the skin. Each peel is suitable for a specific skin type with unique skin concerns.
Glytone peels can help improve the complexion of those with sensitive skin, acne-prone skin, aging skin, and discolored skin. We can customize your treatment with one of the Glytone peels, but regardless of which option we choose, you can expect some incredible results.
AlumierMD Peels
We also offer peels from AlumierMD, a medical-grade skincare line. These peels use AHAs and BHAs to exfoliate the skin and treat different skin concerns. They increase cellular turnover rate, promote increased collagen production, and can help patients with acne-prone skin achieve a clear and vibrant complexion.
These peels also help reverse sun damage, reduce the signs of aging, and promote a bright and healthy complexion. These peels have clinically proven results, and we can customize your treatment with the right treatment option based on your skin type and your concerns.
Schedule Your Chemical Peel
Healthy skin requires regular exfoliation. Regardless of your skin type, we can choose the right treatment option that will make your skin look better than ever. If your at-home topical exfoliating products aren’t helping brighten your skin and promote skin health, it may be time to invest in an in-office exfoliating treatment that will. We can create a treatment plan with one of our peels to help you begin a total skin transformation. Contact us today at Aspire Aesthetics in Hendersonville, TN, to schedule your consultation.
