What is SkinMedica Illuminize Peel?
The SkinMedica Illuminize Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel designed to brighten dull skin, even out tone, and smooth texture by gently exfoliating the surface layers of the skin. It’s commonly used to address concerns like discoloration, uneven pigmentation, and a tired or lackluster complexion, and it’s known for delivering a visible glow with minimal downtime.
At Gold Bar Aesthetics in Columbus, Ohio, our experienced providers customize every peel to your skin’s unique needs, so you leave with a fresh, radiant complexion that looks naturally healthy.
How Does SkinMedica Illuminize Peel Work?
The SkinMedica Illuminize Peel is applied to the skin in a thin layer, where its blend of exfoliating acids and brightening ingredients works to loosen and lift away dull, discolored surface cells. As the outer layer sheds over the following days, fresh, smoother skin is revealed, helping to fade the look of uneven pigmentation and dark spots while restoring a brighter, more even-toned complexion. Because it’s a lighter-depth peel, most clients experience mild flaking or peeling rather than significant downtime.
At Gold Bar Aesthetics in Columbus, Ohio, our experienced providers assess your skin and customize the treatment to your specific concerns, so you see a gradual, natural-looking improvement in tone, texture, and radiance.
