Chemical Peels

All chemical peels at our Schererville, Indiana, office are performed on an outpatient basis, meaning you can go home the day of your treatment. Peels are categorized as either superficial, medium, or deep. We typically offer superficial and medium depth peels in the office.

Dr. Garza and her staff will provide you with instructions for post-peel care and any products we recommend to help you optimize your results.

Superficial Peels

Superficial depth peels take less than 15 minutes and require no downtime. These peels reduce wrinkles and improve some textural sun damage. They also reduce acne scars and alleviate rough, dry skin. Most patients resume their regular routines the day of their treatment. You may experience some redness, flaking, and dryness resembling the effects of a mild sunburn as the outer skin layer sloughs off.

Medium Peels

Medium peels penetrate more deeply than superficial peels but usually only take about 30 minutes to administer. This type of peel corrects moderate sun damage, pigment and skin discoloration, wrinkles and texture problems. Medium peels don’t require anesthesia, though you may feel a slight burning or stinging sensation at first.

Depending on the level and duration of your peel, you may experience some swelling, which will diminish within a week. You will often experience sloughing of the top layers of skin, with this process usually starting 3 days after the procedure and lasting until days 5 to 7. You can resume regular activities after a week to 10 days.
