Chemical Peels

What Is an chemical peel?


Chemical peels aren’t just about shedding skin—they’re about revealing the smoother, brighter, and more confident version of you that’s been waiting underneath.
Our medical-grade chemical peels are custom-tailored to your skin’s needs. Whether you’re targeting acne scars, sun damage, melasma, fine lines, or just looking to refresh dull skin, our peels work at a cellular level to exfoliate, brighten, and renew. Expect clearer, softer, and more even-toned skin—with that unmistakable post-peel glow that screams “I take care of me.”

RENEWED RADIANCE

Brighter, smoother skin in just 3–7 days post-treatment. That glow-up isn’t waiting around.

Zero Downtime

From peel to power lunch—most clients return to their daily routine the same day, no problem.

Naturally You

Our medical-grade peels enhance your skin’s glow—never overdone, always effortlessly radiant.

Preventative Power

Peels help delay signs of aging by boosting skin renewal and balancing tone and texture before issues even begin.

Our peels use carefully curated acids like glycolic, salicylic, lactic, or TCA to gently remove dead skin cells and stimulate collagen production. The treatment is quick, effective, and minimally invasive, with little to no downtime depending on the peel strength. Results develop over days, leaving your skin noticeably smoother and more radiant.

Not Sure Which Peel Is Right for You?

Let’s find your perfect match.

Chemical peels aren’t one-size-fits-all—and that’s exactly why we don’t treat them that way. At The Aesthetics Lounge and Spa Oceanside, we offer a curated menu of professional-grade options, each one designed to target specific skin goals: dullness, uneven texture, acne, sun damage, melasma, or signs of aging.

Some clients want a subtle glow-up with zero downtime. Others are ready for deeper resurfacing and major skin renewal. Wherever you are on your journey, we’ll assess your skin, chat about your goals, and create a customized peel plan tailored to your skin tone, concerns, and lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a professional skin-resurfacing treatment that uses a safe chemical solution to exfoliate the top layer of skin. This process removes dead cells, unclogs pores, and stimulates collagen production, revealing smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin underneath.

2. What are the benefits of a chemical peel?

Reduces fine lines and wrinkles

Brightens dull skin

Improves acne and acne scars

Minimizes sun damage and dark spots

Refines skin texture and tone

Boosts overall skin radiance

3. How does a chemical peel work?

A specialized solution is applied to your skin, which gently dissolves dead cells and stimulates new cell growth. Depending on the depth of the peel, the outer layer may lightly flake or peel over several days, revealing fresh, renewed skin beneath.

4. What types of chemical peels do you offer?

At The Aesthetics Lounge and Spa Oceanside, we offer a range of light to medium-depth peels customized to your skin type and goals. Options include brightening peels, acne-clearing peels, anti-aging peels, and advanced corrective peels. Your aesthetic professional will determine the best formula for your needs during your consultation.

5. What should I expect during the treatment?

Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed, and the peel solution will be carefully applied. You may feel mild tingling or warmth for a few minutes. Afterward, soothing products are applied to calm the skin. The entire procedure typically takes 45–60 minutes.

6. Is there any downtime?

Downtime depends on the type of peel. Light peels may cause minimal redness or flaking for 1–2 days, while deeper peels may involve more noticeable peeling for 3–7 days. Your provider will guide you through aftercare to ensure safe, glowing results.

7. How soon will I see results?

Many clients notice a fresher, smoother complexion after just one treatment. For best results, we often recommend a series of 3–6 peels spaced 4–6 weeks apart, depending on your skin goals.

8. Are chemical peels safe?

Yes — when performed by trained professionals, chemical peels are very safe and effective. We use medical-grade products and tailor the treatment to your skin type and sensitivity to ensure optimal, comfortable results.

9. Who is a good candidate for a chemical peel?

Chemical peels are great for most skin types and anyone looking to improve dullness, uneven tone, acne, fine lines, or texture. During your consultation, our skincare expert will assess your skin and recommend the best peel for your concerns.

10. How should I prepare for a chemical peel?

Avoid retinoids, exfoliants, and harsh products 3–5 days before treatment.

Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning.

Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin.

Stay hydrated and protect your skin with SPF daily.
