Our chemical peel in Pittsburgh is a cosmetic treatment that uses a chemical solution to remove the top layers of the skin, revealing smoother, healthier, and less wrinkled skin underneath. It's used to address a variety of skin issues, including wrinkles, acne scars, uneven skin tone or texture, sun damage, and age spots. The chemical solution used in the peel causes the skin to exfoliate and eventually peel off, hence the name "chemical peel". Chemical peels come in three different strengths: light, medium, and deep. The Gloss Peel is a light peel that gently exfoliates the skin's surface.
Among our most popular facial pick-me-ups is the Gloss Peel, a painless, superficial chemical peel created to revive stressed-out skin cells and boost your youthful glow. It is among the first chemical peels created to be effective without wounding or harming the skin in the process.
Using trichloroacetic acid, salicylic acid, azelaic acid, cell turn-over enhancers, and Vitamin A, the Gloss Peel is very mild. You will be able to undergo treatment and then return right away to your normal routine. You will also receive a take-home product kit to complement your in-office session.
I have been getting work done for the past ten years, in California, Las Vegas and Tampa. Dr. Leong is the best by far. I look extremely youthful and very natural. I highly recommend him. What a gem I have found and in Pittsburgh!
Understanding which chemical peel is right for your skin type is an art form, and should not be attempted by inexperienced practitioners. The skin is a very delicate and complex organ that deserves the expertise of a board-certified facial plastic surgeon such as Dr. Leong, who personally oversees every treatment to ensure its effectiveness, appropriateness and comfort levels.
We will meet with you for an in-depth consultation at our Pittsburgh offices and complete a preliminary evaluation of your complexion. Patients seeking a natural and refreshing procedure that boosts their skin’s suppleness and vibrance may be ideal candidates for this painless chemical peel in Pittsburgh, PA - the Gloss Peel.
After your Gloss Peel, you will be sent home with a kit that contains a perfume-free cleanser, sunscreen, retinoid pads, and a moisturizer containing niacinamide. It’s common to experience facial redness for up to five days after your peel; however, any actual peeling or flaking should be minimal. You are advised to use sunscreen every day in order to protect your newly minted skin from hyperpigmentation. The Gloss Peel can be repeated twice a year.
When conducted or overseen by a board-certified plastic surgeon, such as Dr. Leong, chemical peels are exceptionally safe. However, it’s critical to carefully follow pre-and-postop instructions to reduce the risk of skin damage.
Yes! You may notice a significant improvement in the appearance of your skin tone and texture in as little as one Glossy Peel treatment. Because a peel functions as an exfoliant, it quickly and drastically improves the superficial quality of your skin.
You may not be a good candidate for chemical peels if you have the following:
Microneedling and chemical peels treat similar concerns but produce different results. Chemical peels remove damaged skin layers, and microneedling induces a healing process that replaces skin damage by filling it in with collagen.
