How much does a chemical peel cost?
Our staff can go over your costs in your consultation once they have finished building your custom treatment plan. Costs for a chemical peel will vary depending on the formula you select. Elevation Health and Wellness Spa accepts many payment methods, and we often run specials on treatments like chemical peels. You may also consider buying a package of several chemical peel treatments.
What level should I choose for my chemical peel?
Which level of chemical peel is best for you will depend on your specific skin issues and cosmetic goals. In your initial consultation with our staff, they will help you choose which type of peel is right for your skin. A few things you may consider are your overall health, the type of skin you have, how deep you want the peel to work, how long you can spend in recovery, and what concerns you have about the appearance of your skin. For first-time patients, it is better to select a light peel and decide how you like the results. After this, you and our staff member may tweak your treatment plan to discover the best type of peel for your needs.
Should I get a chemical peel or dermabrasion treatment?
Dermabrasion and chemical peels are both facial rejuvenation procedures that treat surface blemishes to give your skin a rejuvenated appearance. The major difference is that dermabrasion uses aesthetic tools (a rotating brush or shaving instrument) to clear away the top layer of skin through a careful scraping process. A chemical peel applies a specialized solution to your skin to remove damaged skin cells. In your initial consultation, we will discuss the pros and cons of each and help you decide if dermabrasion or a chemical peel best fits your needs and goals.
Will my face hurt after a chemical peel?
Based on the formula selected, you might have mild discomfort while it is actively treating your skin. If you choose a lighter peel, you will feel some stinging, but it can be alleviated with a handheld fan. Deep or medium peels are good for deeper issues and give you longer-lasting results, but they usually are more uncomfortable. Topical anesthetics, skin medications, and soothing ointments can be used to minimize your discomfort during the treatment. A member of our team will give you tips on skin care after your chemical peel to maintain your results.
Can I combine a chemical peel with other treatments?
You may consider combining a chemical peel with another nonsurgical skin treatment at Elevation Health and Wellness Spa. In your initial consultation, be open with our staff about your skin issues so we can create a personalized treatment plan to best address your goals. This might include adding injectable wrinkle treatments (such as JUVÉDERM® or BOTOX®) along with your chemical peel to rejuvenate your entire appearance.
