Professional-strength peels matched precisely to your skin, revealing the brighter surface waiting underneath.
Curious about
peels?
What is a
chemical peel?
A chemical peel uses carefully chosen acids to dissolve the bonds holding tired surface cells in place, prompting the skin to shed them and rebuild fresher layers beneath.
Depth is everything. A light lactic peel brightens before a weekend; a deeper TCA-based formula spends about a week of downtime trading dull, marked skin for a genuinely new surface.
Our menu, featuring Vitality Institute formulations, spans that full range. The choice of acid, strength, and layers is made by a professional reading your skin in person.
Peels reward expertise more than almost any treatment we offer. Ours are chosen and applied by trained providers, never from a fixed menu.
Acid type, strength, and layering are selected in person, not preassigned by a menu.
Even a single light peel lifts dullness and evens tone within days.
Sun damage, post-acne marks, and melasma respond well to a planned peel series.
From no-visible-peel brighteners to a committed week of renewal, the depth is your call together.
When dull skin keeps winning the morning, a peel resets the board.
The right peel is a prescription, not a product. Your provider examines your skin, hears your downtime budget, and chooses accordingly.
Tone Turned Uneven
Sun spots, post-breakout marks, and patchiness lift as fresh layers surface.
Texture Feels Rough
Skin that catches light poorly smooths as buildup sheds away.
Products Absorb Poorly
Your serums work better on a renewed surface than a compacted one.
Breakouts Left Souvenirs
The marks acne leaves behind fade faster with a peel series than with time alone.
Old skin,
politely dismissed.
New skin,
formally invited.
It depends on the peel's depth. Lighter peels may cause only mild flaking you barely notice; medium peels produce a few days of visible shedding. Your provider tells you exactly what to expect before choosing the formula, so nothing surprises you.
Our menu features Vitality Institute peels among other professional formulations. The brand matters less than the match: acids, strength, and layers are chosen for your skin type and concern at the appointment.
One peel delivers noticeable freshness. Concerns like melasma, acne marks, or rough texture typically respond best to a series of three to six, spaced about a month apart.
Yes, with the right formulation and an experienced hand. Certain acids and strengths suit deeper skin tones better than others, which is exactly the judgment call your provider is trained to make.
Gentle cleansing, rich moisturizer, no picking at flaking skin, and disciplined sunscreen. Skipping the sun protection is the one way to undo a peel's work, so we send you home with specifics.

What is the peeling and downtime like?
It depends entirely on depth. A superficial peel gives light flaking for 1 to 3 days. A medium-depth peel produces visible peeling for several days and…
