Depending on the peel selected, you may have mild discomfort throughout the treatment and shortly after. If you get a light peel, you may notice a little stinging, but it can go away quickly with the use of a handheld fan. Medium and deep peels are good for deeper skin issues and offer results that last a long time; however, they typically are more uncomfortable. Topical anesthetics and ointments can be used to help you feel more comfortable during your treatment. A member of our team will explain the best approaches to skin care after your chemical peel to maintain your results.
