Best Chemical Peels near me in Puyallup, Seattle

When carried out by an experienced dermatologist or practitioner, chemical peels can achieve great results, reducing skin discoloration, wrinkles, and acne with minimal discomfort. However, you need to be prepared for your skin to start peeling 3-5 days after your treatment in a similar way to flaking, sun-burned skin. Your skin will be vulnerable at this stage: pick at it and you could cause irritation and infection. Those prone to acne may experience breakouts, but these should clear up within a few days, leaving your skin looking healthier. You’ll also need to avoid high temperatures, over-exertion, and wearing makeup for 1-2 weeks.

Many skin therapists use BHA-based peels to target active acne and congestion. Browse and book acne-focused chemical peel specialists near you on Fresha.

A chemical peel is a skin resurfacing treatment that uses an acid solution (such as AHA, BHA, TCA or phenol) to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin. Depending on the peel depth, superficial, medium, or deep, it can improve skin texture, tone, fine lines, acne, and pigmentation.

Your skin will start to flake (like sunburn) 3-5 days after your peel, and you’ll probably only start to see the real results when new skin cells generate. It’s likely that you’ll notice an improvement in skin tone and texture after your first session, but it normally takes several treatments to achieve your desired skin goal.
