How Chemical Peels Work

Chemical peels work by applying a solution to the skin that causes controlled damage to the outer layers. This triggers your body’s natural healing response, prompting the damaged skin to peel away and revealing new, regenerated skin beneath. The depth and intensity of the peel depends on the type of acid used and how long it remains on the skin.

Superficial Peels

Target the outermost layer of skin (epidermis) for gentle exfoliation. These peels address minor concerns like dullness, rough texture, and mild discoloration with little to no downtime.

Medium-Depth Peels

Penetrate deeper into the epidermis to address moderate skin imperfections including fine lines, age spots, uneven pigmentation, and acne scars. Results are more dramatic with some visible peeling.

Types of Chemical Peels Available

We offer multiple peel options to address various skin concerns and tolerance levels:

Radiance Peel

A superficial salicylic acid-based peel perfect for achieving an instant glow. Reveals tighter, smoother, brighter-looking skin after just one treatment with minimal downtime. Ideal for maintaining radiant skin between deeper treatments.

Perfect 10 Peels

Medical-grade chemical peels that provide visibly apparent skin peeling for dramatic transformation. Within days, your skin will be smoother and softer with a more even tone, revealing a refreshed and rejuvenated complexion.

Universal Peel

A gentle peel recommended for sensitive skin and first-time peel patients. Addresses mild skin concerns while minimizing irritation, making it perfect for those new to chemical peels or with reactive skin types.

Intermediate Peel

A mid-level peel designed for sensitive to normal skin types seeking visible results. Provides noticeable improvement in texture, tone, and clarity while remaining appropriate for less tolerant skin.

Advanced Peel

An intensive peel recommended for more tolerant skin types ready for deeper resurfacing. Delivers dramatic results, effectively addressing stubborn imperfections, deeper wrinkles, and advanced sun damage.

ZO 3 Step Peel

A potent peel of trichloroacetic, salicylic and lactic acids that is suitable for all skin tones. It includes a powerful retinol creme that boosts skin renewal for more profound results. Designed as a corrective peel to improve the appearance of advanced signs of aging, stubborn hyperpigmentation and rough texture.

Benefits of Chemical Peels

Chemical Peels: What to Expect

Every chemical peel begins with a personalized consultation at Numa Spa. We’ll evaluate your skin type, discuss your concerns and goals, and recommend the most effective peel for your needs. We’ll also review pre-treatment instructions and answer any questions to ensure you feel confident and prepared.
On treatment day, your skin will be thoroughly cleansed before the chemical solution is carefully applied. You may feel a mild tingling or warming sensation during application, which is normal. Depending on the peel type, the solution remains on your skin for a specific amount of time before being neutralized or removed. Most treatments take 30-45 minutes. Afterward, a soothing serum and SPF are applied to protect your freshly treated skin. Your full appointment will take approximately one hour.
Results continue to improve as your skin heals, revealing smoother, brighter, more even-toned skin. Superficial peels deliver an immediate glow with continued improvement over the following days. Medium peels show progressive results as peeling completes, typically within 7-10 days, with skin appearing significantly refreshed and rejuvenated. Many patients see optimal results after a series of treatments. With proper sun protection and skincare maintenance, results can last several months to over a year depending on peel depth.
