Types of Chemical Peels
Medical-grade chemical peels come in different strengths and depths, each tailored to different severities of skin concerns:
Light Peels
These superficial peels use mild acids to gently exfoliate the outer layer of skin. They’re perfect for minor blemishes and require minimal downtime. Light peels can improve mild discoloration, rough texture, and minor acne.
Medium Peels
Penetrating deeper than light peels, medium-depth peels target the upper-middle layer of skin. They’re effective for treating moderate sun damage, fine lines, and uneven skin tone.
Deep Peels
Deep peels like the phenol-croton oil combination are the most potent option, providing dramatic results for severe skin imperfections. The combination phenol-croton oil chemical peel provides stunning results in treating many worrisome aging facial changes, including wrinkles, brown spots, discoloration, and thin, loose skin.
Good Candidates for Chemical Peels
Ideal patients for skin rejuvenation with chemical peels are those looking to address:
- Fine lines and mild wrinkles
- Sun damage and age spots
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Mild to severe acne and acne scars
- Hyperpigmentation
- Rough or dull skin texture
The best candidates for chemical peels are in good overall health with realistic expectations. However, it’s important to note that certain skin conditions or medications may be contraindications for chemical peels. During your consultation, be sure to discuss your medical history, including any history of cold sores, scarring issues, or recent facial procedures, as these factors can influence the type of peel recommended for you.
The Procedure
Chemical peel sessions vary depending on the formula level being used. Light and medium peels typically only require a topical anesthetic to ensure comfort during the procedure, and can often be completed during a lunch break. For deep phenol-croton oil peels, the treatment is usually performed under sedation, with the patient asleep but breathing independently. Over the next few days, the peel solution removes the top layer of skin while simultaneously stimulating new, rejuvenated dermal tissue formation.
What to Expect After a Chemical Peel
Recovery time varies significantly based on the type of chemical peel received. Light peels may require only a few days of mild redness and peeling, while deeper peels need more extensive recovery time. Expect a 7-10 day healing period for deep peels as new skin forms. Following your non-surgical facial resurfacing treatment, our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results.

Chemical Peel FAQs
Can chemical peels help with active acne, or should I wait until breakouts clear?
Certain types of chemical peels can actually help treat active acne by deeply cleansing the pores and reducing inflammation. The key is to select the correct type of peel and have it performed by an experienced provider who can personalize the treatment to your skin condition.
Why not just always get a deep chemical peel?
While deep chemical peels provide the strongest and most long-lasting results, lighter peels can be an excellent choice for those simply desiring gradual improvements or maintenance of healthy skin. The choice between peel depths ultimately depends on your symptoms, lifestyle, and other factors.
