Chemical Peels
WHAT IS A CHEMICAL PEEL
Controlled exfoliation.
A chemical peel uses a carefully selected acid solution to remove damaged outer layers of skin. As the skin heals, it regenerates with improved texture, tone, and clarity. The depth of the peel determines how much exfoliation occurs and how significant the results are.
At Graceology Med Spa, we use medical-grade peels tailored to your skin type and concerns. Your provider selects the appropriate formulation at your consultation based on what your skin needs and the amount of downtime you can accommodate.
Consultation
Your provider assesses your skin type, concerns, and goals. The right peel formulation and depth are selected for your skin.
Peeling phase
Skin begins to peel within a few days. This is the exfoliation process at work. Most peeling resolves within 5 to 7 days.
Treatment
The peel solution is applied to clean skin and left on for a precise amount of time. Most treatments take 30 to 45 minutes.
Results
Smoother texture, improved tone, and clearer skin emerge as healing completes. Results continue to improve with each treatment.

FAQ
Frequent asked questions.
Does a chemical peel hurt?
Most guests experience a mild tingling or warming sensation during treatment. Stronger peels may cause more intensity but are manageable. Your provider will monitor your skin throughout the appointment.
How much downtime should I expect?
It depends on the depth of your peel. Light peels involve minimal peeling and little to no downtime. Medium depth peels typically involve 5 to 7 days of visible peeling. Your provider will set clear expectations at your consultation.
How many treatments will I need?
Many guests see meaningful improvement after one treatment. For more significant concerns like hyperpigmentation or acne scarring, a series of peels spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart delivers the best results.
Can I wear makeup after my peel?
We recommend avoiding makeup during the active peeling phase, typically 5 to 7 days. Once peeling has resolved, you can return to your normal routine.
Can I combine a chemical peel with other treatments?
Yes. Chemical peels pair well with other skincare treatments, but timing matters. Your provider will advise on the best sequencing based on your full treatment plan.
