Chemical peels are professional skincare treatments that use a specialized solution to exfoliate the skin’s surface, revealing smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin. By removing dead skin cells and stimulating collagen production, chemical peels help improve texture, reduce discoloration, and promote the growth of healthy new skin over time.
Chemical peels are applied to the surface of the skin, where it works to refresh the appearance of the skin. It is left on for a period of time before being peeled away to reveal younger-looking, refreshed skin. It works to boost collagen production, encourage the development of new skin tissue, while also removing any dead skin cells on the surface.
This treatment has a lot of benefits for the skin and is becoming a more popular option for many to keep their skin looking vibrant without invasive surgery.
There are loads of benefits that this treatment option can deliver. Let’s talk about some of them.
Redness, hyperpigmentation, and other issues that cause the tone of the skin to be uneven can be hard to deal with using only other methods. This treatment option is able to even out any redness or other discoloration and give you a vibrant, beautiful complexion.
Uneven skin texture can not only cause makeup application to be less than smooth, but it can also cause the skin to appear dull and sometimes even more aged than it is. This treatment can effectively smooth out rough skin and bumpy skin, giving you smooth skin.
If you have lines and wrinkles around the eyes, on the forehead, around the mouth area, or on other regions of the face, this treatment can help a lot more than any at-home treatment. This treatment can help diminish the appearance of mild to even severe lines and wrinkles.
Discoloration caused by sun damage can cause the skin to appear spotty and uneven. This treatment can effectively diminish the look of any damage caused by the sun and leave you with a much more even complexion.
Those who struggle with active acne have found this treatment particularly helpful in preventing future breakouts and helping their skin look less damaged by scarring caused by past acne. This treatment has been one of the only treatments that many who struggle with these issues have found that actually works for them.
Because this treatment works to improve the natural production of collagen, this treatment helps skin be firmer and appear plumper. All of these things can be attributed to the boost in collagen production. Your skin will look much younger after only a single treatment session.
The struggle of enlarged pores can feel like an endless one. Large pores are usually caused by debris being trapped deep within the pores which this treatment can help with, leaving you with much smaller pores.
At Vibrant Rejuvenation, we proudly use industry-leading chemical peel formulations from PCA SKIN® and ZO® Skin Health, two of the most trusted names in clinical skincare. These medical-grade peels are designed to treat a wide range of skin concerns, from uneven tone and texture to breakouts, fine lines, and dullness.
Whether your goal is to brighten your complexion, minimize the appearance of sun damage, or support collagen production for firmer skin, our team will select the peel that aligns best with your skin type and treatment goals. Each peel is applied expertly and backed by years of proven results, offering powerful exfoliation with minimal downtime.
Chemical peels are excellent for improving skin texture, tone, and overall radiance without surgery or extensive downtime. Unlike facials, which mainly focus on surface-level cleansing and hydration, chemical peels penetrate deeper to stimulate collagen and target concerns like discoloration, acne scars, and fine lines.
Compared to laser treatments or microneedling, chemical peels offer a gentler, more affordable option for many clients, especially those new to professional skincare. While lasers and microneedling can deliver dramatic results, they typically involve more downtime and are better suited for deeper skin concerns. Chemical peels balance effectiveness and ease, making them a go-to treatment for consistent skin maintenance and visible renewal.
Before your chemical peel begins, our trained professionals will gently cleanse your skin to remove any oil, dirt, or makeup. This helps ensure the peel can penetrate your skin effectively for optimal results.
Once your skin is prepped, the chemical solution is carefully applied to the treatment area. You may feel a mild tingling, warming, or tightening sensation—this is completely normal and usually subsides quickly. We will closely monitor your skin throughout the process to ensure you’re comfortable and that the peel works as it should.
Depending on the type used, the peel is then either neutralized or left to self-neutralize. Once it’s ready to be removed, we’ll apply calming and soothing products to help protect your skin and reduce any immediate sensitivity. You’ll be in and out in about 30 minutes, and then free to go about your day!
Recovery after a chemical peel is typically quick and manageable, with most people experiencing only mild redness, flaking, or dryness for a few days. Depending on the strength of your peel, you may notice visible peeling or shedding around days two through four, with full recovery usually within seven days.
Taking care of your skin after a chemical peel is key to maximizing your results and supporting the natural healing process. Here’s what you can expect and how to care for your skin:
Your skin will be more sensitive to UV rays after a peel. We recommend avoiding direct sunlight and wearing a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ every day, even indoors if you’re near windows.
Avoid using exfoliants, retinoids, or any products with strong active ingredients for at least a week post-treatment. These can irritate your freshly treated skin and delay the healing process.
Use a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer to keep your skin well-hydrated during recovery. Hydrated skin heals faster, feels more comfortable, and looks healthier overall.
It can be tempting to pick or peel the skin manually, but don’t! Let it shed naturally to avoid scarring or damage.
You’ll also receive detailed aftercare instructions customized to your skin type and the type of peel you received. If you ever have questions, we’re only a phone call away.
A little preparation goes a long way to get the best results from your chemical peel. A few simple steps before your appointment can help minimize sensitivity and ensure your skin responds well to treatment.
Avoid using exfoliants, retinoids, or any skincare products with active ingredients (such as AHAs, BHAs, or vitamin C) for at least a week before your peel. You should also skip waxing, threading, or any harsh treatments in the area to avoid irritation.
On the day of your appointment, arrive with clean, makeup-free skin—no lotions, oils, or SPF. If you’re unsure which products to stop using or when, we will walk you through pre-peel care during your consultation.
