Chemical Peels in Santa Ana/Irvine

SkinMedica® Illuminize, Vitalize & Rejuvenize Chemical Peel

SkinMedica’s amazing medical grade chemical peels target everyone’s needs and issues at three different levels. This safe 20-minute treatment results in a flawless finish for just about everyone.

The Illuminize Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel which delivers a nice “glow” to the skin immediately. This mild peel exfoliates dead skin cells in a similar manner that microdermabrasion performs but without the abrasiveness of the crystals and without the risk of spreading bacteria across the skin as the microdermabrasion wand has a tendency to do. The result is a quick glow without any peeling or downtime. This peel is ideal for individuals who want something more invasive than a facial but cannot have the downtime of peeling.

The Vitalize Peel is our most popular peel which exfoliates your dead skin resulting in less acne, less acne scarring, less brown spots and less sun damage. Two days after this peel is applied, the skin starts to shed from the chin up to the forehead for a duration of about 2-3 days. If you want to peel during the weekend, we suggest receiving this peel on a Wednesday evening.

The Rejuvenize Peel is the strongest of the 3-peels and is ideal for those who have already had other peels and are now tolerant to medical-grade peels where individuals are now seeing less shedding of dead skin when other chemical peels are performed. This peel may result is some mild redness and an increase of skin peeling two days after this peel is applied. The duration usually lasts about 3-4 days.

Chemical Peel FAQ’s

Who is a good candidate for a chemical peel?

Men and women who would like to correct early signs of aging, sun-damage, or lifestyle habits (such as smoking) are likely good candidates for chemical peels. Patients who are in otherwise good health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about what the procedure can do for them typically have the best outcome.

People with darker skin tones, existing medical conditions, or excess skin laxity should consult with their doctor before undergoing a chemical peel.

How many treatments are needed to see results?*

You should be able to see a noticeably healthy glow after just one treatment. However, mild peels or more severe cosmetic concerns may take several treatments to achieve your desired results. Chemical peels are typically spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Once you’ve reached your aesthetic goals, results from your peel can last months or even years.

Do chemical peels hurt?*

Before your chemical peel, one of our trained specialists will apply a local anesthetic to ease any discomfort during the procedure. Most patients report a warming sensation throughout the 20-minute treatment and several hours thereafter.

Depending on the level of peel, you may experience scaling, swelling, redness, or bruising for 3-14 days post-treatment. Any discomfort can easily be controlled with over-the-counter pain medication during this time.
