Northstar Dermatology provides a range of medical-grade chemical peels in various strengths and concentrations to treat hyperpigmentation, discoloration, uneven skin tone and texture, acne, and general anti-aging concerns. These peels work by gently exfoliating and resurfacing the skin’s outer layer, promoting cell renewal for a brighter, more even complexion.
Glycolic Acid Peels (Level I, II, III):
Rejuvenating Peel (TCA Peel):
Chemical peels are administered by cosmetic specialists in a quick, in-office visit. Before treatment, our experts will conduct a full-face assessment to discuss your cosmetic concerns and create a plan for the most suitable peel(s). Once you’re comfortably positioned, a single layer of the solution will be gently applied to the skin.
Additional layers may be applied as tolerated. During the procedure, you might experience a “tingling,” “stinging,” or mild “burning” sensation as the active ingredients exfoliate the skin. The peel will then be neutralized, and post-care will be provided. Some redness may follow the treatment, and more intensive peels might involve minimal downtime, including possible peeling of the skin’s outer layer.
Your board-certified dermatologist may recommend a series of chemical peels to address stubborn acne scars or treat conditions like melasma.
