Unlock Radiant Skin with Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are a time-tested, non-device based option for rejuvenating your skin, addressing a variety of concerns from uneven texture to pigment issues. At Wilmington Dermatology Center, we offer a range of chemical peels tailored to meet your specific needs and goals. Let’s dive into what makes chemical peels an excellent choice for skin enhancement, the options available, and what you can expect from your treatment. 

What Are Chemical Peels? 

Chemical peels involve applying a specially formulated solution to the skin to exfoliate and remove damaged outer layers. This process stimulates the skin’s natural renewal mechanisms, leading to improved texture, tone, and overall quality. Whether you’re dealing with fine lines, age spots, acne scars, or dullness, chemical peels offer a versatile solution that can be customized to address various skin concerns. 

Various Options for Different Goals 

One of the standout features of chemical peels is their versatility. We offer a range of peels, from milder options that are perfect for more frequent use to stronger peels designed for more intensive treatments. The choice of peel depends on your individual goals: 

  • Mild Peels: Ideal for addressing superficial concerns such as light pigmentation and dullness. These peels can be used more frequently and are often considered a great option for routine maintenance. 
  • Medium Peels: Designed for more noticeable issues, such as moderate pigmentation and fine lines. These peels penetrate deeper into the skin, providing more significant improvements. 
  • Strong Peels: Best suited for more profound skin concerns, such as deeper wrinkles and severe pigmentation. These peels offer dramatic results but typically require more downtime. 

Exciting New Options: BioRePeel 

One of our favorite innovations in chemical peeling is BioRePeel. This advanced, bi-phase peel is gaining popularity for its efficacy and versatility. BioRePeel can be used throughout the year, making it a fantastic option for consistent skin renewal. It offers impressive results with minimal downtime, making it a practical choice for those seeking regular treatments. 

Who Performs the Treatments? 

At Wilmington Dermatology Center, our skilled aestheticians are the experts behind chemical peel treatments. With their extensive training and experience, they ensure that each peel is applied correctly and safely, tailored to your skin type and concerns. 

What to Expect During and After the Treatment 

During the Peel: You may experience a tingling or mild burning sensation as the peel is applied. The sensation typically subsides quickly, and the procedure is generally well-tolerated. 

After the Peel: Post-treatment, your skin may appear red and feel sensitive. This is a normal response and usually subsides within a few days. You might also experience peeling or flaking as the dead skin is sloughed away. It’s essential to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your aesthetician to ensure optimal results and minimize potential side effects. 

Price Ranges: 

Chemical peels vary in cost depending on the type of peel and the area treated. Generally, mild peels are more affordable, while medium and strong peels come at a higher price point. Our team will provide a detailed breakdown of the costs during your consultation. 

One of the great benefits of chemical peels is their suitability for patients of all ages. Whether you’re in your twenties dealing with acne scars or in your forties looking to reduce signs of aging, our staff can tailor the appropriate peel to meet your needs and goals. 

Protect Your Investment with the Right Skincare Regimen:
