Will a chemical peel treatment hurt me?
While patients should not feel pain during or after the procedure, the peel may cause the skin to have temporarily increased sensitivity. To avoid irritation or discomfort on your skin, avoid exfoliating for at least 48 hours following a chemical peel. In addition, avoid vigorous activities for at least 24 hours and drink plenty of water. These will help protect your skin and extend the incredible post-treatment results.
Patients do not need to take time off work following a chemical peel. In the past, the chemical peel recovery time was lengthy, and patients were required to take time off work for their skin to heal. Fortunately, these formulas are a thing of the past and are no longer used. Instead, modern chemical peels coax the skin into the desired form rather than injure it. This is done using an advanced acid-hybrid, robust, safe, and effective formula.
Chemical peel treatments are designed to help rejuvenate and refresh your complexion while improving the overall surface and appearance of the skin. This topically applied treatment is ideal for reducing uneven skin tones, fine lines, and much more. Although some may believe this is a treatment for your face, it’s also great for your neck & hands.
Chemical peels are typically performed in a medical aesthetics office because unless completed by a trained professional, you very well could harm your skin instead of healing it. Our professionals will apply a chemical peel solution that will exfoliate dead skin cells, allowing the new healthy skin cells to appear. This allows fresh and brightened skin to appear, leaving your skin glowing! Chemical peels are great for many, but specifically, those who suffer from:
- Acne
- Acne Scarring
- Fine Lines & Wrinkles
- Pigmentation
- Melasma
- Sun Damage
- Sun Spots, Age Spots, Freckles
- Sagging Skin
- Uneven Skin Tone
Chemical peels cause patients minimal pain. While you may experience a slight tingling, tightness, or a change in the temperature of your skin, chemical peels are not painful. The provider will monitor your reaction to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure.

Before & After a Chemical Peel
- Take a look at your medical history. Prepare to answer questions about your present and former medical issues, medications you’re taking or have recently taken, and any cosmetic procedures you’ve had.
- Perform a physical examination. We’ll examine your skin and the area to be treated to see which peel would be best for you and how your physical characteristics, such as skin tone and thickness, might affect your outcomes.
- Discuss your expectations. You may discuss your motives, expectations, and potential dangers with us. Make sure you understand how many treatments you’ll require, how long you’ll need to recover, and your outcomes.
Here at River District Aesthetics, we provide options to our clients and explain to them in detail what each entails. That way, they can decide which type of peel is best for their skin type and the condition they wish to treat.
