Chemical Peels
A chemical peel is a quick and effective way to revive the skin's shine, color, and vibrancy. By placing a mild acid solution over the face, the top layers of the dermis - comprised of damaged, dead, or dried out skin cells - can be uniformly removed, revealing the healthy skin underneath. Because only the top layer of the dermis is being removed, there is no risk of injury. Patients who undergo chemical peels may experience some redness immediately after their facial treatment, but this subsides, usually in just a couple of hours.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is similar to a chemical peel, in that it involves removing the outermost layer of dead and damaged skin cells. However, microdermabrasion is a nonchemical facial treatment - unlike a chemical peel, which utilizes an acid solution - and it actually promotes the production of healthy skin cells, making it a unique alternative to other treatment options. The process is particularly effective because the microcrystals which act to remove dead or damaged skin (applied to the face in a spray) contain collagen and elastin, which serve to improve the skin's health.
Facials
Facials are a multi-step process for rejuvenating the skin, and involve cleansings, exfoliation, extractions, massages, facial masks, and protective creams. Though the results of a facial are temporary, it is a great option for women and men seeking a quick and effective treatment to revitalize the face.

For some patients, minor facial treatments are enough to satisfy their aesthetic goals, and we are happy to work with those individuals. If you have minor facial wrinkles, sun spots, or skin discoloration, you may benefit from a chemical peel or microdermabrasion.
