Chemical Peels
The Chemical Peel is a procedure which involves a chemical solution that is applied to the skin, which causes the outermost 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 types 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 downtime; others are stronger and have down time for up to one week.* 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. During your consultation with Dr. Rubinstein or our aesthetician, a treatment regimen is designed to identify the type of 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 a unique blend of acids to create one of the strongest, but safest and most gentle epidermal 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: 0 to 2 days, 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 will help in defining 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.*

Hyperbaric Oxygen Facial
Does your face feel dry and tired with fine wrinkles? Does it look dehydrated, lackluster and dull? Then this may be the perfect facial for you!*

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 an aesthetician favorite and great before parties or photo shoots.*
