Chemical Peel Stockton, CA | Stockton Plastic Surgery

Understanding Chemical Peel Treatments

Chemical peels are advanced skin care treatments designed to improve and smooth facial skin texture by removing damaged outer layers. Stockton Plastic Surgery offers specialized chemical peel procedures to address various skin concerns such as sun damage, premature aging, and acne-prone skin.

Chemical Peel Options

Alphahydroxy Acids (AHA) Peels

AHA peels represent the mildest peel formula, providing gentle skin rejuvenation. These treatments can effectively:

• Smooth rough, dry skin
• Improve sun-damaged skin texture
• Aid in acne control
• Correct pigmentation issues

Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) Peels

TCA peels offer medium-depth skin resurfacing, targeting more pronounced skin concerns such as:

• Fine surface wrinkles
• Superficial blemishes
• Pigmentation problems

Treatment Procedure

Stockton Plastic Surgery's experienced estheticians carefully apply chemical solutions to cleansed facial skin. The procedure typically takes 10-15 minutes, with mild stinging sensations that quickly subside. Depending on individual skin needs, multiple treatments might be recommended to achieve optimal results.

Recovery and Aftercare

Recovery varies depending on the peel type. AHA peels may cause temporary flaking and redness, while TCA peels might involve mild swelling and crusting. Patients are advised to follow post-treatment instructions carefully and protect newly formed skin from sun exposure.

Ideal Candidates

Chemical peels are most effective for individuals with fair, thin skin experiencing superficial wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, or minor skin blemishes. A thorough skin analysis by Stockton Plastic Surgery's professionals ensures the most appropriate treatment approach.
