Discover Medical Grade Chemical Peels in Gilbert, Mesa and Chandler, AZ

Chemical peels at SKINovative are not your “typical” peel. Our medical grade peels are so effective, you’ll see a refreshed, healthy glow to your skin immediately after your first treatment.

Whether you’re looking to even out your skin tone, get rid of fine lines and wrinkles, or smooth out mild acne scars; we offer advanced formulations from SKIN MEDICA Skin Care that will work for you. At SKINovative, you can count on a peel that is right for your skin type, even if you have sensitive skin.

Chemical peels and medical facials are a fast and easy way to exfoliate the skin and improve texture. During the treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the skin which causes an increase in cellular turnover or “flaking” of the skin. You may notice visible exfoliation over the course of a week  while some patients don’t see any peeling. This cellular turnover reveals regenerated skin that is smoother and brighter.  Chemical Peels are highly effective for treating acne, wrinkles, light pigment, and scars.

Chemical peels and medical facials are specially formulated to exfoliate and slough unwanted skin debris and imperfections and range in penetration into the skin from light to deep.  We carry a variety of professional peels which include Salicyclic Peel, Glycolic Peel, Lactic Peel, and TCA Peel. Dr. Fulton can formulate a plan to target your anti-aging goals and skin imperfections.

Please call our office for more information about your specific condition treatment! If you have been longing for an improvement in skin texture and tone, you should definitely start with a series of chemical peels!

Skin Imperfections Chemical Peels Can Improve

SKIN MEDICA Skin Care peels are a non-invasive way to safely improve the look and feel of your skin by correcting common skin irregularities.

Our SKIN MEDICA peels can effectively:

  • Reduce fine lines under the eyes and around the mouth
  • Reduce age spots and dark patches (hyperpigmentation)
  • Improve the appearance of mild acne scars
  • Treat certain types of acne
  • Treat oily skin
  • Reduce the size of enlarged pores

NOTE: Chemical peels are NOT a one-time solution to all your skin problems. If you suffer from severe wrinkles, sagging skin under your eyes or chin, then you may want to consider our non-surgical facelift.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

That’s a great question! In short, you WILL see improvement after your first treatment.

Chemical peels come in a variety of strengths that penetrate to various skin layers and produce different aesthetic results.

Skin imperfections such as age spots and fine lines that take a long time to develop may require 3 to 6 treatments to see significant improvement. Mild acne scars fall into this category as well.

Many of our customers enjoy a relaxing light chemical peel to exfoliate the skin to improve skin texture about every 4 weeks.

NOTE: For faster results to reduce wrinkles and acne scars you may consider combining your chemical peel with a microneedling or DermaSweep treatment.

What Chemical Peels Are Available?

Various levels of medical-grade peels are available to target skin conditions such as acne, hyperpigmentation, melasma, aging and photo-damaged skin. Powerful combinations of vitamins and acids are formulated for each patient based on skin type and degree of the skin’s condition. Results vary depending on the aggressiveness and amount of downtime experienced.

What Are The Benefits?

Chemical peels can improve the overall texture of the skin as well as treat:

  • Sun damage
  • Environmental assaults / anti-free radicals
  • Pigmentation / Melasma
  • Actinic keratosis
  • Light acne scarring
How Many Sessions Do I Need?

This may vary based on your skin’s reaction to the treatment itself. When spaced appropriately, you can undergo glycolic acid peels as often as you like. Dr. Fulton states that several sequential treatments are needed to experience results such as reduction in fine lines or acne.

Can Chemical Peels Be Combined With Other Treatments?

Chemical peels are used to treat wrinkles, skin discoloration and scars — typically on the face. A chemical peel can be done alone or in combination with other cosmetic procedures. Dr. Fulton will advise you about the best combinations to achieve your goals.

What Can I Treat With Your Chemical Peels?

The formulation for our peels can be custom created to effectively treat acne, unwanted pigmentation and skin aging. We offer a wide range of chemical peels serve different purposes and can be customized and even layered to target specific needs for each patient. We will evaluate your skin and find the right blend for your needs. We work closely with our suppliers to ensure our clients can enjoy the latest in skin care developments. The results are smooth skin with a clear and youthful glow. Mineral makeup can safely be applied immediately after chemical peels and most patients do not experience peeling. Treatments can be repeated every two to four weeks for continued improvement.

Chemical Peel Options

Superficial Peels

Lactic or fruit acids are the mildest, and are generally used to treat fine wrinkles, dry areas, uneven pigmentation, acne, rough skin and sun-damaged. A superficial peel will leave skin feeling refreshed and fine lines may be lessened. The downtime is generally minimal and some minor flaking can occur.

Medium Depth Peel

Retinoic acid in combination with other acids provide a deeper level of peeling to smooth fine lines, heal superficial blemishes and lighten pigmentation. The skin will experience flaking within a couple of days that can last for about 3-5 days. These peels can be used any skin type.

Deep Peel

This treatment provides the most dramatic results for treatment of hyperpigmentation and /or melasma. The acids used are customized with the most effective prescriptive pharmaceutical agents. Pre and post care are required for optimal results.
