Facial Treatments

There are three levels of chemical peels used by a qualified technician who can help determine the one that will provide the desired results. They are classified as light, medium and deep peels depending on the intensity of the formula. Typically, the deeper the peel is, the more dramatic the results are, and the longer they will last. Before undergoing a chemical peel, the skin must be free of all dirt, oil, and makeup. After cleaning the face, a technician will apply the solution. The treatment time depends on the chosen level.

Most patients experience minimal downtime following light peels. After medium peels, redness and swelling may occur but usually goes away in less than one week. Deep peels are a bit more invasive, and recovery tends to take a little longer. Detailed instructions are given following any treatments.

Chemical peels vary in price depending on the condition of the skin and the extent of the procedure. We can help you choose the best chemical peel for the results you are seeking. We accept cash, check, and most major credit cards. The board-certified dermatologists and clinicians at Dermatology of Athens are skilled at performing safe and effective chemical peels.
