Seaside Sting Chemical Peels
How It Works:
Our 30-minute chemical peels offer a deeper form of chemical exfoliation that addresses concerns ranging from hyperpigmentation to visible signs of aging, acne, and more. Peels work by breaking apart the bonds between dead skin cells to speed up the cell turnover process. The type of peel and number of layers used will depend on a client's individual concerns and their skin's resiliency. Post-peel downtime varies, but clients may have mild to moderate flaking or peeling for up to 7 days.
Who It's For:
Peels are fantastic for clients looking for more dramatic results. They can help with almost any skin concern, but are especially good for acne, hyperpigmentation, visible signs of aging, and resurfacing skin to restore a healthy glow. Depending on the peel and number of layers used, clients' post-peel experiences can range from no noticeable peeling to flaking/peeling for up to 7 days. To ensure the best outcome, pre-treatment prep and post-treatment home care instructions must be followed.
If you are a first-time peel client looking to acclimate your skin to more corrective treatments, or want a lighter treatment without the potential downtime of a traditional peel, opt for a Seaside Sting Intro Peel.
Why We Love It:
We love Seaside Sting Chemical Peels for their corrective abilities. They're perfect for a deeper skin reset, especially during the cooler, less sunny months. There is a peel option for every skin type and concern, allowing us to personalize your treatment based on what your skin needs.

Please know that any adjustments are made with your skin's best interest in mind. We always recommend booking a consultation before your first appointment or if we haven't seen you for several months.
