WHAT TO EXPECT DURING A CHEMICAL PEEL

During a chemical peel, an expert esthetician will apply a special solution to your skin, peeling off its layers and revealing fresher, brighter skin. At Maui MedSpa, we use medical-grade peels to deliver optimal results. You and your esthetician/provider will work together to choose from the following:

Light Peels: Light peels with glycolic and salicylic acid remove the outermost layer of your skin. While your skin may be slightly red and peel slightly for 3 to 5 days, there won’t be any downtime.
Medium Peels: Medium peels with 30% salicylic acid and modified Jessner remove several layers of the skin to treat deeper skin issues like moderate scars or wrinkles. While the downtime is about 10 days, the results will be more dramatic than you’d get with light peels.
Deep Peels: Deep peels with TCA and Jessner produce the most dramatic results. It usually takes about 10-14 days to recover from them and only one treatment is typically needed per year.

How many peels will I need to achieve optimal results?

We suggest a series of 6 light to medium peels spaced out every two weeks. If you opt for a deep peel, one will usually be enough.

What do I need to do to care for my skin after a chemical peel?

Wait 24 hours to wash your face with a gentle cleanser and apply sunscreen along with a moisturizer. When your skin begins to peel, don’t rub, itch, or try to pick at it as doing so may cause scarring. Instead, use a soft washcloth to gently exfoliate it.

IS THERE DOWNTIME WHEN GETTING A CHEMICAL PEEL?

Downtime depends on whether you receive a light, medium, or deep peel. If you opt for a light peel, you can return to your normal activities right away. With a medium or deep peel, however, your peeling may last days or even a week or longer so you may want to take it easy and avoid social situations for a bit.

We recommend chemical peels if you:

Are bothered by your skin tone and texture.

Repairing Sun Damage with Chemical Peels

Years of sun exposure can lead to visible skin concerns like dark spots, uneven tone, rough texture, and fine lines—especially in sun-prone areas like the face, chest, and hands. At Maui Med Spa, our customized chemical peels are a proven, non-surgical way to reverse the signs of sun damage and restore a smoother, more even complexion.

By using medical-grade exfoliating solutions like glycolic acid, salicylic acid, or TCA, chemical peels work by removing the damaged outer layers of skin where discoloration and sun-induced texture changes occur. This controlled exfoliation stimulates new cell growth, revealing fresher skin underneath with improved tone, brightness, and clarity.

With consistent treatments, chemical peels can significantly improve sun-damaged skin—making them one of the most effective options for skin renewal in Austin.
