What to Expect During the Chemical Peel Procedure
During a chemical peel, your skin will be cleansed thoroughly to remove excess oils, followed by applying a chemical solution that exfoliates the top layers. Post-treatment, expect some redness and peeling as your skin renews. Visible improvements typically appear within 7-10 days, with ongoing enhancement over weeks. Risks may include temporary discomfort, sensitivity, and rare chances of scarring or infection. Always follow post-care instructions to ensure optimal results and safety.

Benefits of Professional Peels & Facials
Professional peels and facials can do more than provide a temporary glow. At Winter Park Laser & Anti-Aging Center, treatments are customized to your skin's condition and goals, whether you want to improve hydration, clear congested pores, smooth uneven texture, brighten discoloration, or address visible signs of aging. With options ranging from customized clinical facials to targeted chemical peels, your provider can select an approach that fits your skin rather than using the same treatment for everyone.
Improve Skin Texture and Smoothness
Exfoliating treatments help remove dead skin cells and encourage a smoother-looking complexion. Depending on the treatment selected, peels and facials can help improve roughness, uneven texture, enlarged-looking pores, and other surface concerns.
Brighten Dull or Uneven Skin
Professional exfoliation can help reveal fresher-looking skin and improve the appearance of uneven tone. Treatments such as the Illuminize, Vitalize, and other targeted peels can be selected based on concerns such as sun damage, pigmentation, and overall dullness.
Address Fine Lines and Signs of Aging
Certain chemical peels are designed to improve the appearance of fine lines, roughness, and other visible signs of aging. By encouraging skin renewal and exfoliating damaged surface cells, professional treatments can help create a smoother, more refreshed appearance.
Support Clearer, Less Congested Skin
Clinical and acne facials can provide deeper cleansing, exfoliation, and pore extractions to address excess oil, debris, and congestion. Customized acne-focused treatments can also incorporate ingredients selected for skin experiencing breakouts, redness, or inflammation.
Restore Hydration and Radiance
Facials can combine exfoliation with hydrating serums, masks, and other professional products to help skin feel softer and look more refreshed. DiamondGlow®, for example, combines exfoliation, pore extraction, and serum infusion for an immediately refreshed appearance.
Improve the Appearance of Acne Scars and Pigmentation
Some professional peels can be selected to address the appearance of acne scars, pigmentation, and uneven skin tone. The appropriate peel depends on the type and severity of the concern, as well as your individual skin characteristics.
Choose a Treatment Based on Your Skin's Needs
There is no single facial or chemical peel that is right for everyone. Winter Park Laser offers multiple options, including clinical facials, acne facials, DiamondGlow®, Illuminize, Vitalize, Rejuvenize, VI Peel, Mini Melanage, and Glytone peels. A personalized evaluation can help determine which treatment best matches your skin concerns and desired results.
Maintain Healthy-Looking Skin
Professional facials and peels can also be incorporated into an ongoing skincare routine. Some clients use these treatments for regular maintenance, while others schedule them when they want to address a specific concern or refresh their skin before an event. Your provider can recommend an appropriate treatment frequency based on your skin and goals.
Peels & Facials FAQs
What is the difference between a facial and a chemical peel?
A professional facial typically combines cleansing, exfoliation, hydration, masks, serums, and other customized techniques to address your skin's immediate needs. A chemical peel uses a specialized solution to exfoliate the skin at a controlled depth and address concerns such as uneven tone, texture, fine lines, sun damage, and pigmentation. Your provider can help determine which option is appropriate for your skin.
What skin concerns can professional facials treat?
Facials can be customized to address concerns including dullness, dehydration, congestion, excess oil, uneven texture, enlarged-looking pores, acne, redness, and signs of aging. The treatment is selected based on your skin's condition and the results you want to achieve.
What skin concerns can chemical peels improve?
Depending on the peel, professional chemical peels may improve the appearance of fine lines, sun damage, uneven pigmentation, acne, acne scars, rough texture, enlarged-looking pores, and signs of aging. Different peels use different ingredients and strengths, so treatment is customized to your needs.
Which facial is right for my skin?
The best facial depends on your skin type and concerns. DiamondGlow® may be appropriate when you want exfoliation, pore cleansing, and hydration, while a Clinical Facial can be customized for broader skincare needs. An Acne Facial focuses on congestion and impurities, and an Illuminize Facial combines a clinical facial with a gentle peel. Your provider can recommend the most appropriate option.
Which chemical peel is right for me?
Winter Park Laser offers several peel options with different strengths and formulations. Illuminize is the gentlest SkinMedica peel, while Vitalize addresses concerns such as fine lines and sun damage, and Rejuvenize is designed for more significant cosmetic concerns. Other options, including VI Peel, Mini Melanage, and Glytone peels, target specific concerns. A consultation helps determine which peel is appropriate for your skin.
Are chemical peels safe for all skin types?
The practice offers chemical peels and facials designed for different skin types, but the appropriate treatment and strength depend on your individual skin. Certain peels may be particularly suited to specific pigmentation concerns or skin tones. Your provider will evaluate your skin and select an appropriate treatment.
Is there downtime after a chemical peel?
Downtime varies depending on the type and strength of the peel. Some treatments have minimal to no downtime, while others may cause redness, sensitivity, dryness, or visible peeling as the skin renews. Your provider will explain the expected recovery before treatment.
How long does it take to see results from a chemical peel?
The timeline depends on the peel and your skin's response. The current treatment page notes that visible improvements typically appear within about 7–10 days, with continued improvement over the following weeks.
Will my skin peel after a chemical peel?
Some chemical peels can cause visible peeling, while others produce little or no noticeable peeling. The amount of peeling depends on the specific formulation and depth of treatment. Your provider will explain what to expect from the peel selected for you.
How often should I get a facial?
Treatment frequency depends on your skin concerns and goals. Some people use professional facials as regular skincare maintenance, while others schedule treatments periodically when their skin needs additional cleansing, hydration, or exfoliation. Your provider can recommend a schedule that fits your skin.
Can I get a facial before a special event?
Some facials can be appropriate before an event because they can leave the skin looking brighter, smoother, and more hydrated without significant downtime. DiamondGlow®, for example, is described by Winter Park Laser as an option with immediately glowing results and no downtime. More intensive peels may require recovery time, so scheduling should be discussed in advance.
Can chemical peels help with acne?
Certain chemical peels and professional facials can be incorporated into an acne-focused skincare plan. The practice also offers a dedicated Acne Facial designed for deep-pore cleansing, exfoliation, and extraction. Your provider can determine which approach is appropriate based on your breakouts and skin condition.
Can chemical peels help with melasma or pigmentation?
Certain peels may be selected to address the appearance of pigmentation and uneven tone. The Mini Melanage Peel is specifically described on the current page as an option for pigmentation and uneven tone and as particularly suited to darker skin tones and melasma patients. Treatment should be customized based on your individual skin.
Can peels and facials be combined with other treatments?
Depending on your skin and treatment plan, professional facials or peels may be combined with other skincare treatments. Some treatments can also complement services such as dermaplaning or microneedling. Your provider should determine which treatments can safely be performed together and how they should be scheduled.
How should I prepare for a chemical peel?
Your provider will give you specific preparation instructions based on the peel being performed and your skin. During your consultation, be prepared to discuss your current skincare routine, products, recent treatments, and any skin sensitivities so your treatment can be appropriately customized.
What should I do after a chemical peel?
Aftercare varies by treatment, but your provider may recommend gentle skincare, avoiding unnecessary irritation, and protecting your skin from sun exposure while it recovers. Following the specific post-treatment instructions provided by your team is important for supporting the healing process.
How do I know whether I need a facial or a chemical peel?
If you're primarily looking for cleansing, hydration, exfoliation, pore care, or a refreshed appearance, a customized facial may be appropriate. If you're looking to address concerns such as pigmentation, sun damage, fine lines, acne scars, or more noticeable texture issues, a chemical peel may be considered. A consultation can help determine which option best fits your goals.
