Chemical Peel
Chemical Peel
A chemical peel is a skin resurfacing treatment that uses a chemical solution to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin, promoting cell turnover and revealing a fresher, smoother complexion. This treatment effectively targets concerns like acne, fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone.
At Modern Medi Spa, we use customizable Alumier chemical peels tailored to your specific skin needs. These peels range from mild to deep, offering various levels of downtime and results, to rejuvenate the skin, improve texture, and enhance overall clarity for a more youthful appearance.
