Peels/Facials
Are you still battling acne, wondering if you will ever have the clear skin you desire? For stubborn hard to treat acne, chemical peels and acne facials may be just what the doctor ordered. To supplement your current acne regimen or control episodic flares due to stress and hormones, chemical peeling and/or acne facials can be added to standard acne therapy for faster results.
Dermatologists have been using peeling agents for the last 50 years. Light “lunch time” peels can treat those annoying sun spots and blemishes or “jump start” and freshen your skin by stimulating the production of new healthy skin. Deeper peels can reverse changes due to a lifetime of sun exposure, hormonal changes, more severe acne, acne scars, smoking and other environmental stresses.
