** Results Vary. Ever wondered which peel is best for you? Dr. Sheila Nazarian, Board-Certified Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon, explains the difference between the medium depth VI peel and the more superficial Rejuvenize peel. 

Downtime depends upon the type of peel, generally the more aggressive results desired, the longer the downtime
Pink discoloration and post-treatment flaking is to be expected; this is a temporary condition that resolves in a few days
Sun block is a must to due to increased sun sensitivity

What chemical might be present in a Chemical Peel Treatment?

Lactic (Alpha-Hydroxy acid): Employed to treat such conditions as photo-damage, hyper-pigmentation, reduction of fine lines and superficial wrinkles, a lightening of surface pigmentation, and softer, supple skin with improved hydration
Resorcinol: Removes the top, surface layer of the stratum corneum and is used particularly in cases of acne
Salicylic (Beta-Hydroxy acid): An aggressive surface skin exfoliant. Reduces sebaceous follicle blockage, has antimicrobial action, excellent for the treatment of acne
Panthenol (Vitamin B-5): Stimulates cellular proliferation and aid in tissue repair
Saponins: Glycoside compounds. The properties function as a "natural antibiotic" for fungal infections, and to combat microbes and viruses
Retinoic Acid

Please note the pH of the peel varies by peel type. Each individual responses to each peel differently.
