SilkPeel Dermalinfusion

SilkPeel successfully reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines while restoring resilience and firmness, as well as improving texture and tone. It is the only skin care treatment that exfoliates and infuses skin-specific dermaceuticals, leaving you with fresh and better-looking skin. Our experienced licensed medical aestheticians will select a specific SilkPeel solution to target your fine lines, wrinkles, age spots and/or discoloration. SilkPeel’s “wet abrasion” treatment exfoliates and removes toxins while infusing your skin with essential vitamins, nutrients and antioxidants.

Microdermabrasion/Dermaplaning

Microdermabrasion and dermaplaning are non-invasive exfoliation treatments that use mild abrasiveness to remove the top layer of the skin, thereby eliminating dead skin cells and exposing beautiful, fresh skin underneath. In addition to repairing sun damage and mild age-related irregularities, with repeat treatments microdermabrasion and dermaplaning can help reduce unwanted pigmentation and fine lines and wrinkles. Dermaplaning can be performed alone or in combination with most chemical peels for a deeper treatment.

The Illuminize Peel

Illuminize Peel is non-invasive very superficial chemical peel that utilizes a novel approach to chemical peeling to maximize skin rejuvenating effects with low irritation. The Illuminize Peel helps increase skin glow and radiance while tightening the skin to restore a more youthful appearance. After a series of treatments, patients of all skin types will see an improvement in clarity, color and skin texture. This treatment requires very minimal down time, has little or no visible peeling which is ideal for first-time chemical peel patients.

The Vitalize Peel

Vitalize Peel helps fight the effects of time, sun damage, and environmental factors. This powerful yet non-damaging peel can take years off aging skin. Vitalize Peel helps address various skin conditions, such as pigmentation abnormalities, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, acne, melasma, and photodamage. Patients of all skin types can achieve visible improvement after one treatment and significant results after a series of treatments.

The Rejuvenize Peel

Rejuvenize Peel is an advanced formulation of peeling agents, with a built-in anti-irritant and penetration enhancer that provides controlled exfoliation of the uppermost damaged layers of the skin to reveal fresher and healthier skin. It is effective for use on skin with sun damage, melasma, pigmentary changes and acne scarring. Patients of all skin types will see noticeable improvement with just one peel.

Micro Peel and Micro Peel Plus

The Micro Peel is an excellent skin care treatment that removes a micro-layer of skin in three simple steps. First, an acid solution is applied to the skin to remove dead cells. Next, a special solution is used to eliminate debris lodged within the pores. Finally, dry ice is moved over the skin in a circular motion to remove a micro-thin layer of cells from the surface of the skin. This treatment is used to ameliorate a number of skin irregularities and it is generally completed within 30 minutes.

Dermaceutic Spot Treatment Peel

The Dermaceutic Spot Treatment Peel is a simple, in-office procedure that takes less than 15 minutes. It is designed to reduce pigmented spots caused by acne scars, sun damage, dark spots caused by pregnancy and melasma. After cleansing the skin, a thin layer of the peel is applied and is worn for eight hours. This peel is medium-strength, meaning the recovery process is easy and the skin is slightly pink for about two days. Patients are also provided with a take-home after care kit that enhances the results of the peel. Protecting the skin from sun exposure and other harmful environmental factors is essential during the healing process. The spot peel significantly reduces dark spots, and repeat treatments are safe.

Milk Peel

The Milk Peel is a very gentle peel that focuses on improving skin clarity and color. The Milk Peel is comprised of an ultrasonic peeling system and gentle fruit acids to brighten dull skin, remove surface pigmentation and blemishes for clear, beautiful and healthy skin. The treatment starts with the ultrasonic peeling system, which removes clogged pores and dead cells. A customized blend of fruit acids is then applied to the treated skin to exfoliate any dead layers and lighten the skin for an even and bright complexion. The main ingredient of the Milk Peel is derived from yogurt, hence its name. The peel is finished with a whitening serum, which allows the skin to regenerate. Recovery is minimal and results are achieved within a few days.

PCA Peels

The PCA line provides an array of moderately aggressive, corrective chemical peels to increase cell turnover rate, improve fine lines and correct hyper-pigmentation, environmental damage and asphyxiated skin. In most skin types and conditions, the results are seen after the first treatment. All body parts can be treated including hands, arms, chest and back.

Obagi Blue Peel®

The Obagi Blue Peel® is an in-office procedure designed to significantly improve the appearance and health of your skin. Using the chemical trichloroacetic acid (TCA) mixed with a special blue base, the Obagi Blue Peel® removes the thin surface layers of aged and damaged skin. These dead skin cells are replaced by healthier ones, allowing the skin’s own clarity and tightness to resurface. Our staff has specialized training and experience with this highly effective peel, which can be performed on the face, neck, chest, hands, back, arms and legs.
