Chemical peels are advanced skin treatments that exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. By applying a specialized chemical solution, these peels remove the outermost layers of dead skin cells, revealing a fresher, more radiant complexion beneath. They effectively address various skin concerns, including acne, fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, and hyperpigmentation. At Lumen Skin & Aesthetics, we offer professional-grade VI Peels to provide safe, effective, and noticeable results, helping you achieve healthier, smoother skin.
Chemical peels work by applying a solution containing acids such as glycolic, salicylic, or trichloroacetic acid to the skin. These acids penetrate the epidermis and, depending on the peel’s strength, can reach the dermis. The solution causes controlled damage to the skin layers, prompting the body’s natural healing process. As the damaged skin cells shed, new, healthier skin emerges. This process also boosts collagen production, which improves skin texture and reduces the appearance of imperfections, resulting in a smoother, more youthful complexion.
At Lumen Skin & Aesthetics, we provide VI Peels for powerful and effective results. VI Peels combine common ingredients like trichloroacetic acid (TCA), retinoic acid, salicylic acid, phenol, and vitamin C to target various skin concerns. These peels are designed to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, treat acne and acne scars, and even out skin tone. We offer VI Peels because they are suitable for all skin types and deliver the dramatic rejuvenation of deeper peels while ensuring minimal side effects and downtime.

Preparing for a chemical peel involves several steps to ensure optimal results and minimize risks. You should avoid excessive sun exposure and discontinue the use of retinoids, exfoliants, and other skin-irritating products for at least a week before the procedure. Your aesthetic provider may also recommend using specific pre-peel skincare products to prepare your skin.
During the procedure, the skin will be thoroughly cleansed, and the chemical solution will be applied evenly to the treatment area. You may experience a mild tingling or burning sensation, which typically subsides quickly. The procedure duration varies depending on the type and strength of the peel but generally takes about 30 minutes.
Potential side effects include redness, peeling, and temporary changes in skin color. More serious but rare side effects can include infection, scarring, and persistent changes in skin color. Proper pre- and post-peel care can help minimize these risks.
