Skin Rejuvenation
A chemical peel is a skin treatment procedure used for skin rejuvenation. The procedure is most commonly performed on the face, neck, chest and hands to stimulate the production of new skin cells. Chemical peels use a liquid peeling agent to remove dead skin cells, promote skin rejuvenation and mild skin tightening. Chemical peels effectively treat fine lines and wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, acne and acne scars, sun-damaged skin, age spots, freckling, and help maintain general skin health. At our Denver skincare clinic, highly qualified and experienced medical aestheticians will properly assess your skin care needs and recommend the best skin peel for your unique skin type. A chemical peel is one of the least invasive ways to improve the appearance of your skin and is an essential part of any good clinical skin care program. Our office is proud to offer a variety of both Glytone and VI Peels, so you and your aesthetician can help you find the best peel for your needs.
Cost effective results
People suffering from sun exposure damage, fine lines and wrinkles or acne will find this treatment especially beneficial. The best results are seen after a series of peels, designed specifically for you and your skin’s changing needs. Ideally, this should also include an at-home skin care program. A chemical peel is a wonderful way to produce a subtle yet visibly healthier appearance with minimum risk involved.

Chemical Peel Procedural steps
Select an appropriate peel based on skin type, e.g., a number of factors, including but not limited to skin age, condition, and pigmentation.
Prepare the skin using an enzyme mask or dermaplaning, facilitating the full and complete penetration of the chemical peel solution.
Apply the appropriately selected chemical agent. This process prompts the natural exfoliation processes or peeling.
After a carefully monitored period of time, the peeling agent is neutralized and gently washed away.
Topical healing agents delivered via moisturizers are applied with protective sunblock.
Over the next several days, the upper skin layers heal leaving a regenerated, smoother, more evenly textured and uniformly colored skin surface.
Light Peels + Medium Peels
Superficial peels are considered light peels. With little to no downtime, light peels restore a bright, youthful appearance to one's skin. At Aesthetics by Design, we use a variety of different superficial chemical peeling agents from the Glytone Enerpeel system including: glycolic acid, salicylic acid, mandelic acid, and pyruvic.
Medium depth peels, as the name suggests, offer a deeper, more robust effect. Using either trichloroacetic (TCA) or Jessner’s Peels, a medium depth peel is ideal for advanced aging, and requires approximately one week of healing time.
Addressing age + Sun Spots
For sun spots and pigmented skin, the Perfect 10 Peel is an excellent solution. The Perfect 10 Peel comes in three strengths, all of which stimulate the cells present in skin resulting in the rejuvenation of new, healthier skin. Whether you choose a superficial peel or a medium depth peel, our experienced staff members will ensure that you achieve optimal outcomes for your desired skin care result
Expected REsults + Follow-Up
Having a chemical peel is a minor procedure with little to no downtime. Depending on the depth of the peel, you may experience a minor degree of burning or tingling during and immediately following the peel. It is important to follow all of the after-care instructions that our skin care clinic aestheticians provide to maximize healing and prevent any complications such as hyperpigmentation.
