Best Chemical Peels near me in Brookside, Tuscaloosa

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.

Superficial peels have minimal downtime: some redness for a day or two. Medium peels may cause peeling and redness for 5–7 days. Deep peels require more significant recovery of 1–2 weeks. Your provider will advise on aftercare and sun protection.

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.

Different types of chemical peels are used for different reasons. Superficial (light) chemical peels remove the top layer of your skin so that it looks smoother, with less wrinkles, acne, and hyperpigmentation when new skin cells grow. Medium peels target similar issues at a deeper level; and deep peels target the deepest skin cells, and is often used to treat severe sun damage. You may experience some stinging during a chemical peel, but this is normal.

Chemical peels typically cost between $88 and $99 per session for superficial to medium peels, with deep peels priced higher. Fresha shows upfront pricing before you book.
