Chemical peels in Porter Ranch, CA
Chemical peels are a popular skincare procedure designed to improve the appearance of the skin. At On The Glow in Porter Ranch, CA, your skilled aesthetician will apply a chemical solution to the skin, exfoliating the outermost layers. This process will reveal a new layer of skin that is usually smoother, less wrinkled, and more even in tone. Chemical peels treat various skin issues, including acne scars, aging skin, sun damage, and uneven pigmentation. They are suitable for individuals seeking non-invasive solutions to enhance their skin’s appearance. Results may vary based on the type of peel, but many patients notice improvements shortly after the peeling process concludes, with more significant results appearing over the following weeks.
For those interested in a gentle yet effective peel, SkinMedica’s Illuminize Peel is an excellent option. It’s the mildest peel offered by SkinMedica and is designed to provide a brightening effect to the skin with minimal downtime. On the other hand, SkinMedica’s Rejuvenize Peel is a more robust treatment, targeting moderate to severe skin imperfections. It penetrates deeper into the skin to produce more significant results. Both peels are available at On The Glow, where our professionals can help determine the best choice for your skin type and concerns. Results from the Illuminize Peel can be seen immediately, while the Rejuvenize Peel may require several days before the rejuvenated skin is revealed. To maintain and prolong the effects, a series of peels is often recommended. Ready to uncover a fresher, more radiant complexion? Schedule an appointment at On The Glow, today!
