Chemical Peels
What are chemical peels?
Chemical peels are solutions applied to the skin to remove/exfoliate top layers at a uniform level to improve overall skin appearance.
Perfect Derma Peel, Pure Retinol Peel (4% or 6%) and Pro Clinical Peel are professional grade mediaum depth and light peels offered at Reinu Medspa. They contain a powerful blend of clinically proven acids and antioxidants such as glutathione, to treat fine lines and wrinkles, sun/age spots, hyperpigmentation, acne/acne scarring, uneven skin tone and dull complexion.
How does it work?
A chemical peel is also known as chemexfoliation or dermapeeling. The procedure involves applying a solution on your skin (face, neck or hands) and over a period of several days, top and or middle skin layers peel away revealing smoother, softer, more rejuvenated skin. Most people are great candidates for peels.
Benefits of chemical peels include:
-
Improve overall skin clarity, tone and texture.
-
Reduce-hyperpigmentation
-
Control acne and improve the appearance of acne scars.
-
Reduce the appearance of pore size
-
Soften fine lines and wrinkles
-
Stimulate the production of collagen and elastin for firmer, brighter and more youthful skin

Different chemical solutions and strengths in peels determine the depth of skin penetration which can be superficial, medium or deep. Type of peel used will depend on degree of skin concerns, skin type and amount of downtime allowed.
Light/superficial (lunchtime) peels
Remove the outermost layer of skin and are often performed in series with combination treatments. They are perfect with dermaplaning (hyperlink dermaplaning page) . They are best for minor skin concerns. They often promote a healthy glow. Downtime is as little as couple hours to couple days. They can be repeated every 2 weeks.
