Chemical Facial Peels - Types

Created from a mixture of resorcinol, lactic acid, and salicylic acid, Jessner's Peels offer patients deeper penetration and exfoliation than more mild peels. As a result of this, noticeable flaking will occur in the following 3 - 4 days after the peel. You'll notice an improved appearance to your skin within one week.

Obagi Blue Peel

Obagi Blue Peel is a breakthrough skin care procedure in skin rejuvenation. A solution of Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA), the Obagi Blue Peel is a custom skin rejuvenation technique that slowly peels away the damaged outer layers of skin, revealing the firmer, clearer, more youthful skin below. The Obagi Blue Peel allows Dr. White to control the depth of the peel and the number of coats applied in order to tailor the process to your skin's specific needs. The Obagi Blue Peel can even be performed on the neck, chest, hands, back, arms and legs.

Unlike common alpha-hydroxy peels or at-home procedures, the Obagi Blue Peel puts control of your treatment in professional hands. Based on your individual needs and skin condition, your skin professional determines the strength of the peel.

The Obagi Blue Peel uses Trichloracetic Acid (TCA) as the active ingredient mixed with the patented Blue Base from Obagi. Your skin professional will apply the Obagi Blue Peel based on your level of damage and your desired level of Transformation.

The Obagi Blue Peel is ideal for those who have skin problems including:

• Minor blemishes
• Uneven pigmentation
• Wrinkling
• Sun damage
• Dull skin

Depending on your preferences and the nature of your skin problems, the Obagi Blue Peel may consist of anywhere from one to four skin care treatments. You may experience a mild burning sensation for up to three minutes following application, but any pain will be temporary and minimal. Your appointment will generally last around an hour. A slight blue tinge may remain for 12 to 24 hours following the skin care procedure, but it will wash off completely.

Within two to three days of the procedure, the outer layers of your skin will begin to peel lightly, as the damaged outer layers slough off. Within a week to ten days, your skin should be completely healed and your healthy, radiant new complexion will be revealed.
