WHAT IS A CHEMICAL PEEL?

A chemical peel is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses a customized solution to exfoliate the outermost layers of the skin. The process encourages cell turnover and stimulates collagen production, revealing fresher, younger-looking skin beneath the surface. Depending on your individual goals, we can perform light, medium, or deeper peels to target different levels of skin rejuvenation.
 

Chemical peels have been trusted by dermatologists for decades to improve skin texture, tone, and clarity. At Kline Dermatology, we use advanced formulations that combine effectiveness with minimal downtime, allowing you to return to your routine quickly while still enjoying noticeable results.

WHAT SKIN CONCERNS CAN CHEMICAL PEELS TREAT?

Chemical peels are versatile treatments that can target multiple skin issues at once. They are especially effective for:
Fine lines and wrinkles:

 

  • Peels help smooth and soften early signs of aging.

  • Uneven Tone & Discoloration: They reduce sunspots, age spots, and melasma.

  • Acne & Blemishes: Chemical exfoliation helps clear clogged pores and reduce breakouts.

  • Acne Scars: Peels encourage collagen production to minimize the appearance of mild scarring.

  • Dull or Rough Texture: By removing dead skin cells, peels restore smoothness and radiance.

  • Sun Damage: Chemical peels can help repair visible damage caused by years of sun exposure.

    Because everyone’s skin is different, our providers will assess your specific concerns and recommend a peel strength and formula that will deliver optimal results with minimal irritation.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING TREATMENT

Your comfort and safety are our top priorities at Kline Dermatology. A typical chemical peel treatment lasts approximately 30 to 45 minutes. The process begins with a thorough cleansing of your skin, followed by the careful application of a customized peel solution. You may experience a mild tingling or warming sensation as the peel works to exfoliate the skin.
 

After a set period, the peel will be neutralized, and soothing products will be applied to calm the skin and promote healing. You’ll leave the office with post-treatment care instructions to ensure the best possible outcome.

TREATMENT AREAS

Chemical peels can be performed on several parts of the body, depending on your goals. Common treatment areas include:

 

  • Face: To refine texture, minimize fine lines, and even out skin tone.

  • Neck: To address sun damage and mild laxity.

  • Décolleté: To smooth and brighten the skin on the chest.

  • Hands: To reduce discoloration and age spots.

  • Back: To help clear acne and improve overall tone and texture.

 

Your dermatologist will help you determine which areas can benefit most from treatment and may recommend combining peels with other cosmetic procedures for enhanced results.

AFTERCARE & RECOVERY

The recovery process after a chemical peel depends on the depth and strength of the treatment. Light peels typically require minimal downtime, with only mild redness or flaking for a few days. Medium to deeper peels may result in more noticeable peeling and a slightly longer recovery period. After your peel, it’s essential to follow our recommended aftercare plan:

 

  • Avoid direct sun exposure and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily.

  • Keep your skin moisturized with gentle, hydrating products.

  • Refrain from picking or peeling flaking skin.

  • Avoid retinoids, exfoliants, and strong skincare ingredients until your skin has fully healed.

 

Following these guidelines will help protect your results and ensure your skin heals beautifully.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU
GET CHEMICAL PEELS?

While a single peel can deliver a healthy glow, a series of treatments is recommended for the best and most long-lasting improvements. Many patients start with a series of 3 to 6 peels spaced several weeks apart. Once optimal results are achieved, maintenance treatments every few months can help preserve your results and keep your skin looking refreshed year-round.


Your dermatologist will work with you to create a treatment schedule tailored to your skin’s condition, your lifestyle, and your aesthetic goals.
