CHEMICAL PEELS
The Chemical Peel is a procedure which involves a chemical solution that is applied
to the skin which causes a layer of skin to separate and peel off. The new, regenerated
skin underneath is usually smoother in texture and more even in color than the old skin.
There are various strengths and concentrations of Chemical Peels each developed for
specific indications such as wrinkles, acne, overall skin texture and skin tone. Some
chemical peels are mild and have no down time, others are stronger and have down
time for up to one week. The stronger chemical peels are deeper and remove thicker
layers of skin which result in more significant improvement of skin texture and tone.
Chemical peels can be performed on the face, neck, chest, hands, arms, and legs.
Benefits and Visible results of Chemical Peels
• Correct uneven skin pigmentation
• Texture becomes more refined
• Fine lines and wrinkles become less apparent
• Oily or acne-prone skin is improved
• Enlarged pores appear smaller
• Superficial scars appear reduced
• Skin appears healthier, more youthful and radiant
Generally, no anesthesia is needed for peels since they cause only a slight stinging
sensation during application. Protecting skin from the sun is important following a peel.
In a consultation with Dr. Rubinstein or our medical aesthetician, a treatment regimen is
designed to identify the strength of the peel based on the condition of your skin and the
desired result as well as available recovery time.
SkinMedica VITALIZE PEEL: Our Most Popular Peel
Indication: Uneven skin tone and texture, tired looking skin
Recommended Series: 2-3 Peels, 4-6 weeks apart; then every 6-8 months for maintenance
Downtime: 2-3 days of medium/heavy peeling beginning 2 days after procedure
The VITALIZE Peel from SkinMedica brings the benefit of alpha-hydroxy and retinoic acids in a
unique blend to create one of the strongest, but safest and most gentle peels. Even after one
peel you will begin to notice a dramatic improvement in your skin’s texture and tone,
lessening of superficial lines and a healthier, more youthful look and feel. The renewal
process has been clinically proven to help pigmentation problems (such as age spots) fade
and stimulate collagen production in the cells underneath. The VITALIZE Peel is safe and
gentle for all skin types.
ALPHAHYDROXY ACIDS (AHAs)
Indication: Uneven skin tone and texture, tired looking skin
Recommended Series: 2-3 Peels, 4-6 weeks apart; then every 6-8 months for maintenance
Downtime: Mild to High, depending on the strength of the peel.
Alphahydroxy acids (AHAs) such as glycolic, lactic, or fruit acids range from the mildest of the
peel formulas to higher strengths and produce peels that can provide smoother, brighter-
looking skin. The strength of the peel is based on your desired results, the condition of your
skin and available recovery time. A consultation with Dr. Rubinstein or our aesthetician helps
define your goals.
ACNE FACIAL
Indication: For patients undergoing medical acne treatment.
Recommended Series: Monthly facials, including extractions, throughout the treatment
process, then as needed every 6 to 8 weeks for maintenance.
Downtime: Not significant.
Areas: Face, Back, Chest
Depending on each patient's individual needs, extractions and calming treatments are
performed to help cleanse the skin and contribute to the medical treatment of acne. Back
facials are often recommended in conjunction with PhotoDynamic Therapy treatment.
HYPERBARIC OXYGEN FACIAL
Does your face feel dry and tired with fine wrinkles?
Does it look dehydrated, lackluster and dull?
Indication: For anyone who wishes to improve the appearance of skin.
Refreshes, rejuvenates and plumps up tired skin. Great for calming
the skin surface.
Recommended Series: One treatment offers excellent results for already healthy skin. A
series of six treatments is recommended for improving skin texture
and appearance.
Downtime: None. This treatment is recommended before public appearances.
A molecular weight hyaluronic acid that holds 1000 times of its weight in water is infused into
the skin using topical hyperbaric oxygen technology. This process supplements and plumps
the skin surface and stimulates regeneration of new cells to visibly reduce the appearance of
fine lines and wrinkles. A series of six weekly treatments is recommended, but just one 30
minute treatment will help your skin look and feel nourished and hydrated. This celebrity
endorsed O2 Facial is great before parties or photo shoots.
