Chemical peels
Glycolic acid peel - $150
Glycolic acid is a type of alpha-hydroxy acid (or AHA) that's derived from sugar cane. It joins other acids you might recognize, such as lactic acid (derived from sour milk and reportedly a favorite of Cleopatra's), tartaric acid (from grapes), and citric acid—which is from citrus fruit.
The 30% Glycolic Peel is an excellent cell renewal peel and is a great classic on its own. The glycolic acid dissolves the desmosomes that hold skin together to allow for an efficient exfoliation. Some will experience redness during and after treatment along with sensitivity.

If you peel it will generally start 48-72 hours after your treatment and can last from 5-7 days. It is very important not to pick off peeling skin. Peeling is minimal and easily controlled with moisturizer.
Premature peeling of the skin will result in dry, cracked, raw skin that may develop into hyperpigmentation. Please let the skin naturally shed and heal on its own. Don’t forget to wear spf daily and apply 15 mins before being exposed to the sun.
