The main goal of chemical peels is to eliminate the dull outer layers of the skin, revealing a fresh complexion over time. At Awaken Skin + Body, we feature specialized peel solutions from SkinCeuticals, Obagi, and PCA Skin. Our esthetic specialist will select the perfect formula for you!

What To Expect For Your Chemical Peel
During your consultation, your clinician will determine if a chemical peel is right for you. She will guide you through the process from there, explaining the safety and advantages of this remarkable treatment.
How To Prepare For Your Chemical Peel Treatment
Prior to your appointment, remember to steer clear of extended sun exposure, hair removal, and any exfoliating home products.
During Your Chemical Peel Procedure
The process takes about an hour and begins with your skin being cleaned and prepped. Your practitioner will apply peel solution in layers, and you may feel a mild stinging sensation, tightness, and warmth. You will leave with home products and instructions for how to best care for your skin post treatment.
Chemical Peel Aftercare and Recovery Timeline
Treat your skin as though you have a sunburn for the days following your treatment. Cleanse gently, avoid home exfoliation and hair removal, and protect your skin from the sun. Chemical peels are minimally invasive, yet impactful, so carefully follow all the home care instructions your esthetician outlined. Skin peeling and sensitivity is expected, but the duration of downtime depends on the type and depth of peel you received.
How Many Treatments Are Needed?
Like most of the services at Awaken Skin + Body, the number of treatments will be determined by your individual skin concerns and level of correction needed. Also, chemical peels are most impactful when done in combination with our other services like laser and microneedling.
