Chemical peels can improve skin tone and fine lines, giving you a smoother, glowing complexion. Chemical solutions, varying in strength, can remove just the superficial skin of the epidermis, or can penetrate to the deeper dermal layers. These solutions stimulate the layers underneath to grow, revealing smoother, younger, more even-toned skin as the outer layers get exfoliated.

A specialist in burns and wound-healing, Dr. Patel understands how skin gets damaged and how it heals. Whether you’re getting a single chemical peel, or our very popular physician-strength Signature 7 Peel, you can get amazing results with minimal downtime.

During your consultation with Dr. Patel, she will recommend a chemical peel treatment appropriate for your skin condition.
