Chemical Peels

Over time, sun exposure, acne, and the natural aging process can leave your skin looking dull or uneven.

Whether you’re targeting fine lines, discoloration, or acne scars, chemical peels can help refine your complexion and restore your skin’s youthful glow. Schedule your appointment today by phone or online to begin your journey toward radiant skin.

What are chemical peels?

Chemical peels are professional exfoliating treatments that use a carefully selected blend of acids to remove dull, damaged, or dead skin cells from the surface. This controlled resurfacing process stimulates new cell growth, enhances collagen production, and improves overall skin tone and texture. 

Depending on your goals, your provider can adjust the depth and strength of your peel to deliver subtle or more dramatic rejuvenation. Over time, this treatment helps refine pores, fade discoloration, and promote a smoother, more youthful complexion.

What concerns can chemical peels address?

Chemical peels can effectively treat a wide range of common skin concerns, including:

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Uneven skin tone or texture
• Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
• Acne and acne scars
• Enlarged pores
• Melasma or age spots
• Dull, congested skin

By revealing fresh, healthy skin underneath, chemical peels help improve clarity, smoothness, and luminosity—often after just one session. The results continue to improve as cell turnover increases, resulting in a brighter and more even complexion over time.

What can I expect during my chemical peel appointment?

Your provider will begin with a consultation to assess your skin and determine the best peel for your needs. After cleansing your skin, the chemical solution is applied evenly and left on for a specific period before being neutralized and removed. You may feel mild tingling or warmth during the process, which typically lasts 20–30 minutes. Following your treatment, gentle peeling or flaking may occur over several days as your new skin emerges, revealing a refreshed and revitalized appearance.

How often should I get a chemical peel?

Most patients notice visible improvement after one peel, but a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart can enhance and extend results. Lighter peels can be done monthly, while deeper peels are performed less frequently for more significant resurfacing. Your provider will recommend a personalized treatment plan based on your skin type, lifestyle, and long-term goals.

At Sakura Aesthetics, every chemical peel is selected and customized to match your unique skin condition and comfort level. The goal is to restore balance and radiance safely, using evidence-based techniques that promote long-lasting skin health and natural beauty.
