A chemical peel applies a professional-strength solution that removes dead skin cells and encourages fresh, even skin.
The type and strength of peel is chosen at your skin consultation, depending on your skin and what you'd like to improve.
Depending on your goals, Rebeca may suggest combining it with microneedling or facials as part of a wider plan.
Honest advice, and knowing when to say, “You don't need that.”
