No Need to be Scared, Chemical Peels are Here to Help!

Injections, lasers, and chemical peels. . . oh my! The major players in the world of aesthetic medicine can sound intimidating but fear not! We don’t like painful procedures any more than the next person, so that’s why at Timeless Elements, everything we do is with your utmost comfort (and results!) in mind. One of the most trending treatments as of late are chemical peels, so today we’re diving a little deeper into these transformative treatments and why we suggest adding these powerhouse peels to your regular skin regimen.

How Do Chemical Peels Work?

When we think about chemical peels, we often liken the treatment to the process of putting a fresh coat of paint on a house. You’re making the investment of hiring a painter, choosing the paint color and buying the paint. . . so it’s only natural that you’d want to clean the surface and clear it of debris, to ensure the new paint job looks the best it possibly can, right? It’s the same idea with chemical peels, but while we’re clearing away dead skin cells (by removing the outermost layers of the skin) and making way for fresh skin cells to surface, we’re also helping to treat scars, improve texture and smooth the skin. That way we know that any other targeted treatments we’d like to get afterward (or any medical-grade skincare we’ve invested in) is truly working to the absolute best of their ability.

What Kind Of Chemical Peels are Offered at Timeless Elements Med Spa and Laser Center?

At Timeless Elements, we know that no two faces need the same level of treatment, and for that reason, we’re proud to offer a variety of peels including the Precision Plus and Purity Peels from VI Peels® as well as the Rejuvenize, Vitalize and Illuminize Peels from SkinMedica®.

VI Peels® Chemical Peels

• Precision Plus Peel and Purity Peel- For those battling UV-induced pigmentation issues, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and general sun damage, the Precision Plus peel is a great option for exfoliating and helping to diminish pigmentation and textural damage. By promoting rapid cell turnover, this medium-depth peel effectively penetrates damaged areas to restore skin to its natural health. The Precision Plus Peel is safe for all skin types, shows results within just 7 days, and also includes the VI Peels Lighten Booster and fast-acting Brightening Booster to repair skin while also restoring that lighter and brighter glow of our youth.
• Purify Peel- We all need a little skin purifying from time to time, but if you regularly struggle with active acne or oily skin, the Purify Peel is for you! The Purify VI Peel is a highly effective treatment for acne and addresses a variety of concerns caused by acne symptoms (and yes, it’s even safe for all skin types!) The Purify Peel’s unique formula increases cellular turnover to open pores and reduce comedones (those skin-colored small bumps we acne sufferers find on our chin and forehead), kills p. acnes (the bacteria that causes acne), and balances the skin for fewer breakouts. . . with results in up to 7 days! This medium-depth peel is perfect for soothing the inflammation and redness commonly associated with active acne, breakout-prone skin, teen acne or just plain old oily and congested skin. As an added bonus, both VI Peels include a take home kit with a post-peel protectant and after peel towelettes to protect your skin and ensure you get the results you want.
