What it Treats:
Our facial skin bears the brunt of life’s stresses, such as sun damage, acne, and the effects of aging, which can leave us feeling less than radiant.
At Copper Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery, we provide chemical peels as a highly customizable and noninvasive solution to significantly enhance your appearance. Each chemical peel is carefully chosen to address your skin’s individual needs, revitalizing your unique complexion for a fresh and radiant look.
How the Treatment Works
At Copper Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery, we offer a variety of chemical peel procedures conducted in our office. Following a brief consultation with one of our skin care specialists, we will choose a peel tailored to your specific needs. You can sit back and relax while the peel works its magic, gently exfoliating away damaged skin. Generally, there is little to no downtime associated with chemical peels; however we do have some more aggressive peels that may require downtime of 3-5 days.

Chemical Peel FAQs
Most patients notice results within 5 to 7 days. The outcomes can vary depending on the type of peel used and your skin’s unique characteristics.
We recommend arriving at your appointment with clean, makeup-free skin. Additionally, it’s a good idea to avoid sun exposure and tanning in the days leading up to your peel.
