Chemical Peels

From Portland Oregon’s Center For Skin and Facial Rejuvenation

The aging process can cause your skin to become lax, pigmented and rough.  Fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and discolorations can appear – leaving you looking older than you would prefer.  A chemical peel is a mildly invasive procedure used to dissolves the upper layers of dry, damaged skin. By placing a specific mix of chemicals and nutrients on the face, the top layer will slough away and will reveal a radiant new complexion underneath.  Here at Style Aesthetics located in the Pearl District in Portland, Oregon – we put great importance on skin therapies like the Vi-Peel Chemical Peel, a proven treatment that works synergistically with all our injectable facial rejuvenation treatments.

What is the Vi-Peel Chemical Peel at Style Aesthetics?

Aging is inevitable but the Vi-Peel we offer here at Style Aesthetics is a great treatment that is beneficial for all skin types and ethnicities. The Vi-Peel is made from a cutting-edge blend of vitamins and chemicals, including Retin-A, Salicylic Acid, Phenol, and Vitamin C. This peel is designed to improve the skin’s texture while enhancing the overall complexion, slowing down the skin’s aging process even further to create a beautifying face and glowing skin. The Vi-Peel is a gentle peel, yet strong enough to rejuvenate aging skin and prevent future damage, while stimulating collagen production for long-term benefits.

What should you expect during a Chemical Peel at Style Aesthetics?

Our medical-grade chemical peels are performed within the comfort of our Portland clinic to ensure your comfort. A chemical solution will be applied to the surface of your skin for several minutes before it is removed. Once the peel is applied to your skin, you may experience a slight tingling or burning sensation. The amount of tingling you experience varies individually. The process for a chemical peel usually takes less than an hour, and our Dr. Rajani’s highly trained staff will stay with you through the entire procedure to monitor the product as it does its job. You can expect your skin to peel for several days following the procedure. During this time, you will be given specific instructions on how to care for your skin during the healing process.

Are you a good candidate for a Chemical Peel?

Almost anyone may make a good candidate and benefit from a chemical peel. A potential patient should understand the chemical peel process and hold realistic expectations for their final results which can be discussed during your consultation.

How long does the Chemical Peel take?

At Style Aesthetics, each chemical peel will be performed in a private, comfortable treatment room. This treatment takes about 30-45 minutes and the extent of downtime can be expected between 5-7 days where you can expect your skin to peel following the procedure. During this time, you will be given specific instructions on how to care for your skin as it heals and restores. It is important to keep sun exposure to a minimum in the days following your treatment, as healing tissue are extremely sensitive and can cause darkening of the skin. It is essentially important to use a high, broad-spectrum SPF especially during outdoor activities while your skin is recovering.
