Chemical peels remove cell accumulation on the surface of your skin to quickly reveal smoother, rejuvenated skin.
What is it?
Chemical peels improve your skin's texture and complexion rapidly using naturally-derived ingredients. Buckeye Dermatology uses chemical peels to safely address several concerns, including acne, fine lines, pigmentation and age spots.
The name is more intimidating than the actual treatment – chemical peels are derived from natural ingredients and have a 5-decade history of safety and effectiveness. That said, every person has different skin and different goals, so its important to have a medically-trained expert select the appropriate peel for you. These clinical experts can also help minimize redness and irritation by monitoring your skin's reaction in real time to remove your peel at just the right time.
In other words, it matters who applies and removes your chemical peel. You and your skin deserve the best outcomes. We proudly offer highly trained, board-certified providers to administer your chemical peel in Dublin, Grove City and Dublin, Ohio.
What to expect
Depending on the area we treat, chemical peel treatments can be fairly quick, sometimes as short as 15 minutes. First, your provider will perform a deep facial cleansing to get your skin ready for treatment. Then, your provider expertly applies the peel and monitors the way it interacts with your unique skin. Once ideal results are achieved – and before irritation sets in – your provider removes the peel. For patients experiencing discomfort after treatment, w eoffer cold compresses and soothing skincare products.
Before you leave, the Buckey Dermatology team walks you through a personalized at-home care regimen to maximize results and minimize downtime. Additionally, we'll explain when it's safe to apply makeup and how long redness or swelling may last. For more aggressive peels, we may schedule a follow-up visit to make sure you get the best result.
