Skin Chemical Peels Treatment in Lehi

There are various types of chemical peels, ranging from superficial peels to deep penetration peels. Our trained master aestheticians can help you customize the perfect chemical peel to address your skin’s concerns. Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) are among the most common acids used in chemical peels. The use of AHAs is often recommended for treating fine lines, wrinkles, dullness, and uneven skin texture. Frequently, BHAs are used to treat blemishes, large pores, and uneven skin texture. TCA is often used to treat more advanced visible signs of aging and discoloration caused by sun damage, acne, or hormones. During the peel treatment, you may feel a slight burning sensation and experience redness for 24-48 hours after the treatment. Depending on the strength of the peel, your skin will continue to flake/peel for up to one week.
