Chemical exfoliation is the most effective option, delivering lighteners deeper into the skin . This chemical exfoliation treatment will be customized to your needs . It involves application of a chemical solution to produce a “removal” of outer layers of the skin . This allows the fresh , new layer of the skin underneath to develop and grow, leaving you with a radiant and brightened complexion. This peel is used to gently exfoliate acne-prone, hyperpigmented, and aging skin without excessive irritation or dehydration. It may cause mild flaking of the skin.
*PLEASE NOTE* if you need a more aggressive option/peel, you need to refer to a dermatologist.

Hydrodermabrasion hydrates, cleanses, and revitalizes skin while supporting healthy blood circulation. Better circulation, in turn, promotes the production of collagen and elastin fibers that tighten the skin and promote a youthful look.
