Chemical Peel Specialist in Dickson City, PA

A chemical peel addresses a myriad of skin conditions. By removing the outermost layers of your skin, the procedure unclogs pores, reduces inflammation, and minimizes the appearance of acne scars. It also significantly diminishes dark spots resulting from acne.

In addition to acne treatment, chemical peels are used to combat signs of aging and sun damage. We can effectively target the cosmetic appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots, all while stimulating collagen production.

Chemical peels are also used to treat hyperpigmentation issues, such as melasma, commonly characterized by brown or gray patches on the face. Other conditions caused by sun exposure, hormonal changes, or even acne can also be significantly reduced with this procedure.

Our chemical peel treatments also aid in improving skin texture. Conditions such as keratosis pilaris, often referred to as “chicken skin,” characterized by small, rough bumps, can be reduced with this treatment. Chemical peels can also improve the appearance of other skin concerns, like rough patches, dry skin, or uneven skin tone.

A patient’s suitability for a chemical peel treatment depends on various factors, including skin type. Chemical peels are generally suitable for normal, oily, and combination skin types. These skin types respond well to exfoliation, experiencing reduced oiliness and acne as well as the appearance of fine lines. However, those with darker skin can also benefit from chemical peels, provided the peel is suitable for their skin type and condition.

Patients with dry or sensitive skin types, including those with skin conditions like rosacea or severe forms of acne, require caution when considering chemical peels.

Chemical peels are a popular and highly effective method to treat various skin concerns such as acne scars, age spots, fine lines, and wrinkles. However, patients need to adhere to the recommended treatment frequency to avoid potential skin damage.

The frequency of chemical peels depends on various individual factors and the specific type of peel used. These factors include your skin type, your specific skin concerns, your level of sun exposure, and your age.

We offer various types of peels, each suited to different skin needs. Superficial peels are suitable for mild concerns and can be performed every 2-4 weeks. Medium peels address more pronounced issues, often targeting wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and hyperpigmentation. Deep peels are intended to be fairly permanent with intensive corrective results.

The three main types of chemical peels that can be administered depend on your skin type and aesthetic goals: light (superficial), medium, and deep peels.

Light peels only impact the outermost layer of the skin and typically require a healing time of about 2-3 days. During this period, patients may experience mild redness and flaking.

Medium peels will penetrate the skin on a deeper level and often take up to a week to heal, with symptoms similar to a sunburn. However, the skin should be fully healed after about seven to 14 days, revealing a significant reduction in wrinkles and discoloration.

Deep peels, offering the most dramatic results, require several weeks of healing. Despite the longer healing period, the results are often impressive, with a marked reduction in deep wrinkles and skin discoloration.

At True Bliss Medical, we ensure each patient understands the factors that can affect the healing time, which include skin type, depth of the peel, age, sun exposure, and any underlying skin conditions.

This non-invasive procedure can significantly improve various skin conditions and concerns. The average cost will depend on the type of peel you are getting along with some factors. Here is a general breakdown of cost:

 Cost Factors:

Type of Peel:
• Light peels: $150-$500. These are the least invasive and affect only the skin’s outermost layer.
• Medium peels: $300-$900. These provide a deeper treatment and are more intense.
• Deep peels: $800-$2,500. The most intensive treatment, offering the most dramatic results.

Treatment Area:
• Smaller areas like the face may cost less than larger areas of the body.

Location:
• Costs may be higher due to the high demand for our services and the overhead costs associated with providing top-notch care.

Remember, multiple sessions may be required to achieve the desired outcome, which can increase the total cost. Also, as is standard in the industry, chemical peels are generally not covered by insurance since they are considered a cosmetic procedure.
