What is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel uses safe, medical-grade acids to gently exfoliate the top layers of dead or damaged skin, revealing fresher, smoother skin underneath. At Refine Skin Kare, Karen customizes each peel to address concerns like acne, sun damage, dullness, or uneven texture, ensuring a safe, effective treatment with modern, gentle formulations.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

At our Franklin Park studio, Karen begins with a gentle cleanse and skin analysis to customize your peel. The peel solution is applied evenly, with a mild tingling or warm sensation lasting a few minutes. After neutralizing the peel, Karen applies soothing serums and SPF to protect your skin. The 30–45-minute session leaves you refreshed and glowing.

Aftercare & Results

Post-peel, you may experience slight redness, tightness, or mild peeling for 2–7 days, depending on the peel’s strength. Karen provides tailored aftercare, including avoiding sun exposure, heat, and active ingredients while prioritizing SPF and hydration. Results appear quickly, with smoother, brighter skin that improves with regular treatments.
