Chemical Peels
Peel Away Years of Skin Damage
Healthy, glowing skin is not out of reach. At Gearity Wellness Center, chemical peels are tailored to address your specific skin concerns at every level.
Chemical peels use a carefully selected blend of exfoliating acids to remove damaged outer skin layers, revealing fresher, more uniform skin underneath. From light superficial peels to deeper resurfacing treatments, each formulation can be customized to target sun damage, hyperpigmentation, acne, fine lines, and uneven texture, making them one of the most versatile and effective skin treatments available.
The Science Behind Chemical Peels
A clinically formulated acid solution is applied to the skin to break down and remove damaged layers, triggering fresh cell regeneration.
Your provider cleanses the skin and may apply a pre-peel solution to prepare the surface for optimal penetration and even results.
The selected chemical solution is applied to the treatment area and left for a controlled period before neutralization, depending on peel depth.
As old skin sheds over the following days, fresh new skin emerges with improved tone, texture, and a noticeable natural glow.
Who Should Consider a Chemical Peel?
Chemical peels benefit a wide range of skin types and concerns. Whether you are dealing with the aftermath of sun exposure, persistent acne, age-related changes, or simply want a refreshed and more radiant complexion, there is a peel depth and formulation suited to your specific skin goals and tolerance.
This service is for you if you:
- Have sun damage, dark spots, or uneven skin tone
- Struggle with active acne, post-acne marks, or congested pores
- Want to reduce the appearance of fine lines and rough skin texture
- Are looking for a regular maintenance treatment to keep skin bright
- Want to enhance the results of other skin treatments you are receiving

How to Care for Skin After a Chemical Peel
Post-peel skin is sensitive and actively renewing. Proper care ensures the best possible outcome and minimizes side effects.
Keep skin hydrated with a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer throughout the peeling process.
Apply a broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen every morning to protect newly exposed skin.
Allow skin to shed naturally and contact your provider if you experience unexpected reactions.
Never pick, peel, or pull at flaking skin, as this increases the risk of scarring.
Avoid retinoids, exfoliants, and active skincare ingredients until skin has fully healed.
Skip direct sun exposure, steam rooms, and sweating for at least one week post-peel.
Any Questions?
Yes. Certain chemical peel formulations are specifically designed for sensitive skin types including those with acne, rosacea, or eczema, and can be customized to suit your skin's needs.
Chemical peels are categorized as superficial, medium, or deep depending on the depth of exfoliation, with each level targeting different concerns and requiring different recovery times.
Chemical peels treat a wide range of skin concerns including sun damage, hyperpigmentation, acne, acne scarring, rough texture, fine lines, and dull or uneven skin tone.
Recovery time varies by peel depth. Superficial peels require up to 72 hours, medium peels may need a few days to a week, and deep peels can require several weeks of recovery.
The number of chemical peel sessions needed depends on your skin concerns and goals. A series of treatments is often recommended for optimal, cumulative results.
Before a chemical peel, avoid retinoids and prescription retinol products for at least five days, as well as sun exposure, exfoliating treatments, and hair removal procedures.
