About Chemical Peels:
What It Is
These advanced skin rejuvenation treatments are professional skin exfoliation and resurfacing treatments that are customized for different skin types and concerns. At Gold Bar Aesthetics, our practitioners use active ingredients to exfoliate dead skin cells and stimulate cellular turnover, revealing a smoother, brighter, and more even complexion.
These treatments vary in strength and depth, allowing treatment of different layers of the skin. Superficial solutions gently exfoliate the outermost layer and are typically applied in layers and left on the skin, with the strength controlled by the number of layers applied. Medium and deeper treatments penetrate further into the skin, are precisely timed to achieve more advanced skin rejuvenation.
Each treatment is customized to address concerns such as acne, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and uneven texture, ensuring safe, effective, and results-driven skin resurfacing.
How It Works
By applying a specialized exfoliation solution to the skin, damaged, dull surface cells are removed and stimulate natural skin renewal. As the outer layers of the skin exfoliate, new, healthier skin cells emerge, resulting in a smoother texture, brighter tone, and more youthful appearance.
Various strengths can be used ranging from gentle exfoliating acids to more advanced formulations designed for deeper skin resurfacing. During your consultation, our experienced practitioners will evaluate your skin type, concerns, and goals to recommend the most effective option for optimal results. Each treatment is customized to safely improve concerns such as acne, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone.
What To Expect
A treatment typically takes 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the type, depth of exfoliation, and number of layers applied. During the application, you may experience a mild warming or tingling sensation as the solution works to exfoliate the skin.
Superficial treatments generally involve little to no downtime, allowing most clients to return to normal activities quickly. Medium and deep treatments may require a longer recovery period, with visible peeling, redness, or sensitivity lasting from several days to a few weeks.
To support proper healing and optimal results, it is important to avoid sun exposure and temporarily discontinue active skincare ingredients such as retinol, vitamin C, and exfoliating acids until your skin has fully healed. Your practitioner will provide personalized aftercare instructions to ensure safe recovery and long-lasting skin rejuvenation.
