Chemical Peels

Recovery time after a chemical peel in Denver can vary depending on the intensity of the treatment. With a light peel, you may encounter slight redness or flaking for several days. With a medium peel, it is common to experience swelling, redness, and peeling that extends for around one week. Finally, a deep peel may require 2-3 weeks of downtime, as it involves a more extensive shedding process. Regardless of your peel type, you will need to protect your skin after your session by wearing sunblock whenever you are outdoors. Your skin will be extra sensitive after a chemical peel, so be sure to follow all of our recommendations and instructions post-treatment.

The cost of a chemical peel in Denver, Greenwood Village, and the surrounding area will vary based on the depth of the treatment and whether your session is performed in tandem with other aesthetic or wellness options. We will conduct a detailed consultation and physical assessment. Once your individualized treatment plan has been created, we will provide you with an all-inclusive price quote.

Depending on the depth of your peel, you might experience some mild tingling during the treatment process. This just means the peel is working. If you undergo a deep peel, we will likely use a topical anesthetic to maximize your comfort and minimize any discomfort.

For those dealing with minor skin concerns, a single light peel may be sufficient to achieve the desired results. For those struggling with acne scars or deeper folds, a series of visits spaced months apart may be recommended to achieve your unique cosmetic vision.

Within one week of your peel, you will notice an improvement in the skin’s vitality and smoothness. Lighter peels offer faster, more superficial results, while deeper peels require more downtime but come with more lasting and dramatic changes.
