What skin concerns do chemical peels treat?

Chemical peels effectively address a wide range of skin concerns including acne and breakouts, post-acne hyperpigmentation and dark spots, dullness and uneven skin tone, fine lines and early signs of aging, sun damage, and rough or uneven skin texture. Body peels can treat rough texture on the back, elbows, knees, and underarms. Every peel at the practice is customized to your skin type and specific concerns, using the appropriate acid type and concentration for your treatment goals.

How much does a chemical peel cost?

Chemical peels at Bruce Wellness & Aesthetics start at $100 for facial peels and $100 or more for body peels depending on the area treated. A consultation or pre-treatment visit will confirm pricing based on the peel depth, size of the area treated, and any add-on enhancements. Contact the practice at (919) 390-2848 for current pricing information.

How long does it take to recover from a chemical peel?

Recovery depends on peel depth. Light peels cause minimal to no visible peeling, with mild dryness and flaking that resolves within two to three days. Medium peels produce more noticeable peeling over three to seven days. Deeper peels may involve more pronounced redness, peeling, and healing time of one to two weeks. During recovery, it is important to avoid picking at the skin, use gentle moisturizers, and apply broad-spectrum sunscreen daily to protect the fresh new skin.

How often should I get chemical peels?

Light chemical peels can be performed every four to six weeks as part of an ongoing skin maintenance regimen. Medium peels are typically scheduled every two to three months. A series of three to six peels is often recommended initially for maximum improvement in texture and tone, followed by periodic maintenance sessions. Your esthetician or provider will recommend a schedule based on your skin goals and how your skin responds to treatment.

Q: Are chemical peels safe for all skin types?

Chemical peels can be adapted for a wide range of skin types, including sensitive and darker skin tones. Acid type, concentration, and application time are all adjusted based on your Fitzpatrick skin type to minimize the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. A thorough skin assessment is performed before each peel to confirm appropriateness. Patients with active infections, open wounds, or certain skin conditions may need to postpone treatment until their skin is ready.

How Do Chemical Peels Work?

During the procedure, a trained skincare specialist applies a carefully selected acid solution to gently resurface the skin and stimulate cell turnover. This controlled process encourages regeneration, helping to improve texture, tone, clarity, and overall radiance. As dead skin cells naturally shed over the following days, your complexion becomes visibly smoother, brighter, and more refined. The type and strength of peel are customized to match your skin’s unique needs and goals.

Am I a Candidate for Chemical Peels?

You may be a good candidate for chemical peels if you’re dealing with sun damage, acne scarring, uneven texture, or hyperpigmentation and want a treatment that delivers real, visible improvement in skin tone and clarity. Because peel strength can range from light to deep, this treatment works for a wide variety of skin types and concerns.

During your consultation at Bruce Wellness and Aesthetics, our team will assess your skin type and goals to recommend the right peel depth and formulation for you. Patients with certain skin conditions or recent sun exposure may need to wait or choose a gentler option, which your provider will discuss during your evaluation.
