Traditional chemical peels typically work by causing a controlled injury to the skin to the two top layers of the skin, triggering a wound healing process. While effective, this process can create inflammation, peeling, and irritated skin. The controlled injury requires an up to 10 days on average of downtime where sun exposure, heat, working out, makeup and skin treatments must be limited. We now have an efficient process of achieving improved skin texture, tone and pigment with a no downtime peel that can also be used in the summer.  

 

We are Proud to Announce "The Modern Peel Option" - Linder Health Peels

​

Linder Health chemical peels, are designed with skin health in mind. These peels use lower concentrations of active acids combined with advanced delivery systems to target cellular aging processes without triggering inflammation. They focus on enhancing cellular metabolism and eliminating "zombie" cells—damaged cells that contribute to aging, pigmentation, and breakouts—through a process called cellular apoptosis. Linder Peels can also be used on any skin type.  The peels perform best in a series of 3 to 6 done one month apart.  We can combine this treatment with microneedling or the Rezenerate nano wand to create a stronger peel.

​

Traditional Peels consist of a variety of formulas that are customized based on your skin type and ethnicity, discussing your background is extremely important. Peels vary in strength and depth, depending on your specific goals. Some patients may achieve a refreshed glow with a single treatment, while others may benefit from a series of treatments to address skin concerns such as:

​

• Fine lines under the eyes and around the mouth

• Wrinkles caused by sun damage, natural aging, or genetics

• Mild acne

• Scarring (mid-depth peels are needed for this)

• Brown spots, freckles, and melasma (dark patches from pregnancy or birth control)

• Dull skin tone and texture

What to Expect

A chemical peel treatment typically takes about 30 minutes, but the exact duration depends on the peel selected. The chemical solution is applied in thin layers as tolerated and left on the skin. You may experience a mild stinging sensation, usually a 1-3 on a scale of 10. Afterward, you will have moisturizer and sunscreen added and can resume most daily activities.

Types of Peels & Recovery

​

• Light/Superficial Peels: Minimal to no downtime; can be combined with treatments like microneedling, rezenerate nano or dermaplaning.

• Medium-Depth Peels: Expect peeling and flaking, often beginning around areas of facial movement (e.g., mouth) and progressing to the forehead, cheeks, neck, and chest. Full peeling can take 7+ days. Note: Some patients may experience little to no visible peeling—this does not mean the peel was ineffective. Healthier, well-conditioned skin often results in less downtime. It is best to be well hydrated on the day of your chemical peel. As we get to know your skin better, we can adjust treatments accordingly. Your skin’s safety is always our top priority.

 

How to Prepare for Your Chemical Peel

• Avoid antibiotics prior to treatment.

• Must be in good general health.

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding are contraindications.

• Discontinue use of Retin-A, retinol, Alpha/Beta hydroxy acids, Glycolic acids, and even high-strength Vitamin C, 5-7 days prior to treatment.
