A medical chemical peel is a short and sweet procedure that consists of a heavy-duty solution being applied to the skin to remove the outmost layers, the epidermis and dermis. The skin that develops after a chemical peel is healthier, silky, and smoother. If you choose to get a light or intermediate peel you might need to complete more sessions in order to get the results to be relevant. Medical chemical peels are used for many reasons. Most often to treat spotted skin and scars or wrinkles usually on the face or hands. Medical chemical peels can be done by themselves but can also be done in combination with other beautifying cosmetic procedures. Medical chemical peels are done at various depths. The deeper the peel the more noticeable the results, but will have a longer recovery time. 

• Light chemical peel -  A superficial chemical peel removes the epidermis or the outermost part of the skin. This peel is used to manage acne, fine lines and wrinkles and uneven skin tone. You might have a light peel every two to five weeks. The light chemical peels we offer at Recharge Clinic are the Obagi Blue Radiance and Image peel. 
• Medium chemical peel -  A moderate chemical peel removes skin cells from the epidermis and in some cases the upper part of the dermis as well. This peel is used to treat acne scars, uneven skin tone and scars from acne. More than one session might be needed to achieve your desired result. The medical chemical peels we offer at Recharge Clinic are the VI Peel Basic and Perfect Derma Peel Basic. 
• Deep chemical peel - A deep chemical peel discards skin cells much farther into the skin. Your provider might advocate one for patients with major wrinkles, deep scars or growths. You won't need redo procedures to get the full effect. The deep chemical peels we offer at Recharge Clinic are the VI Peel Plus and Perfect Derma Peel Plus. 

Results are not guaranteed to be permanent. Regardless of the depth of your peel there is always the chance that your skin will become red, swollen, tight and irritated. Always listen to what your aesthetic professional tells you in regards to sun protection, cleansing, mortirizing and applying ointments as you are healing from your peel. Also, avoid rubbing, picking or scratching your skin. This will ensure the best results!
