Welcome to Solcara Health, where your skin gets a VIP treatment with VI Chemical peels! Say hello to smoother, softer, and radiant skin - the ultimate secret for that fresh-faced glow you've been dreaming of. Our VI Chemical peels work like a charm, giving your complexion the love it deserves without the hassle.
A chemical peel, also known as chemexfoliation or dermapeeling, is a transformative cosmetic treatment designed to rejuvenate your skin. During this procedure, a chemical solution is applied to the skin, causing controlled trauma to its layers. This process prompts the skin to peel off, revealing a fresh, more youthful layer underneath. The new skin is typically smoother, with fewer lines and wrinkles, a more even color, and a brighter complexion. Whether you’re looking to address fine lines, uneven skin tone, or simply want a radiant glow, a chemical peel can be a game-changer for your skincare routine.
Our Chemical Peels involve applying a specially formulated acidic solution to your skin, followed by its gentle removal after a precise duration. This transformative process is a game-changer. By bidding farewell to those pesky dead skin cells, we’re sending a powerful message to your body—time to ramp up collagen production! The result? Skin that feels like silk, with wrinkles and blemishes taking a back seat. Glycolic acid, a common ingredient in chemical peels, helps to exfoliate the skin and promote collagen production.
A VI Peel is a medium-strength, medical-grade chemical peel that helps to minimize signs of aging, including fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, melasma and uneven skin texture, dullness, and tone. VI Peel also targets acne, acne scarring, and helps minimize pore size. These chemical peels work by removing both the epidermis (the top layer of skin) and the uppermost section of the underlying dermal layers, allowing them to be replaced by smoother, brighter skin. These chemical peels are virtually painless, safe for all skin types, require no skin preparation, and have little downtime. For optimal results, we recommend a series of 3-4 VI Peels.
Our chemical peels aren’t just for the face; they can work wonders on your neck, chest, hands, back, and feet too. They target those stubborn bonds holding onto old, damaged skin cells, whether they’re the result of aging or that relentless sun exposure. In their place, brand-new skin cells emerge, giving your skin a vibrant, youthful glow.
While chemical peels can improve the appearance of the skin, they are not effective for treating deep scars, and alternative treatments may be necessary.
At Solcara Health, we’re all about choices. We offer different chemical peels, each carefully tailored to your specific skin type and desired outcome. Our star players include Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs), and the formidable TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid). These aren’t just treatments; they’re transformations. Each type of peel has its unique way of enhancing your skin’s tone, texture, and clarity.
Medium peels penetrate the epidermis and upper dermal layers, making them effective for treating hyperpigmentation, shallow wrinkles, and superficial acne scars.
VI Peel Original is a great first-time peel that is perfect for all ages and skin types, providing tighter, smoother, and rejuvenated skin. Superficial peels are ideal for first-time users as they gently exfoliate the skin and enhance the absorption of daily skincare products. Great for younger patients seeking maintenance.
VI Peel Advanced is ideal for mature skin (usually patients 40+ years). This peel enhances collagen stimulation and skin elasticity, and minimizes fine lines, wrinkles, and acne.
Medium depth peels are particularly effective for mature skin, helping to treat acne scars and other skin disorders.
VI Peel with Precision Plus targets discoloration, sun damage, age spots, melasma, and acne—our crowd favorite!
Deep peels, using strong solutions like TCA above 50%, are highly effective in treating severe skin conditions and achieving significant skin whitening or frosting.
VI Peel Purify is a multi-faceted solution for acne triggers and symptoms, clearing pores and balancing oily skin.
VI Peel Purify with Purity is great for patients with pigmentation issues PLUS acne and/or acne scarring. This is the ultimate treatment for pigmentation, acne, and scarring providing smoother, brighter skin.
Concerned about pain or downtime? Fear not! Our peels are gentle, and downtime is minimal. Plus, we can amp up the benefits by combining them with a customized relaxing facial or a Laser Micro-peel. And we don't leave you hanging—our after-care regimen ensures lasting effects.
Preparation is key to achieving the best results from your chemical peel. To start, it’s crucial to avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least two weeks before your treatment. This helps prevent any additional skin damage and ensures your skin is in the best condition for the peel. Additionally, you should discontinue the use of retinoid products and other exfoliating treatments for 1-2 weeks prior to your appointment. Avoiding waxing, threading, and tweezing during this period is also recommended. Your doctor may suggest using a gentle cleanser and moisturizer to prepare your skin, ensuring it’s hydrated and ready for the peel.
The chemical peel procedure itself is straightforward yet highly effective. It begins with the application of a chemical solution to your skin. This solution is carefully chosen based on your skin type and the depth of the peel required. The solution is left on your skin for a specified duration, allowing it to penetrate and work its magic. For a light chemical peel, this process may take around 15-30 minutes, while a medium or deep peel may require more time. Once the solution has done its job, it is neutralized with a special agent, marking the end of the procedure. The type of chemical solution used and the duration of the procedure will depend on your individual skin concerns and goals.
Post-procedure care is essential to maximize the benefits of your chemical peel. For at least two weeks after your treatment, it’s important to avoid direct sun exposure and to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30. This helps protect your newly revealed skin from damage. Additionally, refrain from picking or peeling the skin, as this can lead to scarring or infection. Your doctor may recommend using a gentle cleanser and moisturizer to soothe and hydrate your skin during the healing process.
Chemical peels can address a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, uneven skin tone, acne scars, and rough skin. Depending on your needs, you may opt for a superficial peel, medium-depth peel, or deep peel. These treatments can also be combined with other cosmetic treatments, such as microdermabrasion or laser resurfacing, for enhanced results. However, it’s important to note that chemical peels may not be suitable for everyone, particularly those with darker skin tones, active acne, rosacea, or certain medical conditions. Consulting with a qualified doctor or dermatologist will help determine if a chemical peel is the right choice for you.
Prepare to be amazed by the benefits of chemical peels. They’re like a magic wand for your skin, reducing wrinkles, evening out pigmentation, and even fading those stubborn acne scars. Surgical or injury-related scars? We’ve got those covered too, along with firmer skin and visibly reduced pore size. And that’s not all—chemical peels can also tackle precancerous and other skin lesions, promoting your overall skin health. Chemical peeling, when performed by qualified personnel, ensures effective outcomes and safety, especially for different skin types and conditions.
Retinoic Acid – inhibits melanin (pigment) production and increases cell turnover and exfoliation.
Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) – acts by boosting collagen and exfoliates the skin. A medium peel, often using TCA, offers more significant results than a light peel and requires specific post-peel care.
Salicylic Acid – acts to reduce the bacteria that cause acne by cleansing the pores, reducing inflammation.
Phenol – numbs the skin to allow for a pain free chemical peel application.
Ascorbic Acid – a powerful antioxidant that reverses free radicals, evens skin tone and helps prevent future damage.
Hydroquinone - helps to reduce pigment helping to both lighten and brighten the skin.
Kojic Acid – inhibits the production of pigment.
