Chemical Peels
We at Alma MedSpa in Missouri are excited to use Obagi Medical for our Chemical Peels. Chemical Peels are a great exfoliation that works by exfoliating the top layers of your skin, revealing newly regenerated skin. It helps treat wrinkles, discoloration, and scarring.
Chemical peels are a popular treatment for skin problems, and we at Alma MedSpa in St.Peters are one of the most experienced providers in the area. Chemical peels are a valuable treatment option for people who want to improve their appearance. They work by removing the outermost layers of skin, which can reveal smoother, brighter skin beneath. This new skin is softer and silkier than the old one, and may take more than one light or medium peel session to achieve the desired results. However, repeated treatments over time will help you see continued improvement in your appearance.
Chemical Peel Procedure
- The patient lies flat on their back.
- Will clean the treatment area
- Soft gauze is used to degrease the skin using 70% isopropyl alcohol and acetone.
- Apply the solution evenly to a 5% body surface area according to visible endpoints, allowing at least a minute between applications.
- Using a clockwise motion, apply the solution to a maximum depth of the immediate reticular dermis, and wait for the desired effects.
- You can’t apply a facial peel to your face without “feathering” it down your neck and behind your ears.
- Always apply with a dry cotton-tipped wooden applicator.
- You should close your eyes when applying treatment to your top lids and leave them open while working on your lower lids.
- Never apply more solution until the peel has cured and the skin has been adequately stretched.
- Since tears dilute acid, you’ll need to apply the solution again if you shed any.
- Obagi’s foamy cleanser without water will effectively neutralize the dye.
