What are Chemical Peels?
At Skin Bar MD, we have developed customized chemical peels that address the most common skin complaints. Each of our chemical peels gently, yet effectively exfoliates the upper levels of the skin, even out skin tone, soften wrinkles, and rejuvenates the skin. Each peel begins with our signature skin cleansing technique. After cleansing the face, or other areas to be treated, a peeling agent is applied. To ensure maximal safety, all peels are neutralized and soothing skin serum is applied to the skin. For best results, we recommend a series of 3-6 chemicals every 4-6 weeks.
