Chemical Peels for Cleaner, Healthier Skin

Chemical Peel Treatment Spa in Southington, CT

Did you know that there’s a fresher, healthier layer of skin hiding just beneath the surface of your body? There’s an easy, non-invasive way to bring that layer to the forefront and give you a glowing appearance: the chemical peel. These treatments are extremely popular, are safe, and are convenient for clients. At Pure Skin, we are able to offer chemical peels that leave your skin looking fabulous and leave you feeling confident and refreshed.

What Are Chemical Peels?

Chemical peels are non-invasive treatments that use acidic compounds to exfoliate the skin, removing damaged or dead skin cells on the treated area. These compounds affect the top layer of the skin, or the epidermis, and stronger chemical peels can also affect the layer just underneath, called the dermis. Since chemical peels remove layers of skin, they do require some healing time after treatment and avoiding sun exposure during the healing process. There are three main types of chemical peels, which include:

Superficial Chemical Peels. These are the gentlest type of chemical peel and take the least amount of time to heal. These peels treat the surface layer of the skin.

Medium-Depth Peels. These peels are stronger and effective at treating skin concerns such as minor acne scars, hyperpigmentation, fine lines/wrinkles, and sun damage. They may be accompanied by noticeable swelling and redness, and can take up to two weeks to heal.

Deep Chemical Peels. Deep chemical peels are not as common, as they are the strongest type of peel and are often accompanied by up to three weeks of recovery time. These peels can be effective for moderate to severe sun damage, hyperpigmentation, or wrinkles.

Benefits of Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are well-loved by clients for several reasons. They typically require no preparation on the part of the client, and clients can usually return to daily activities immediately after treatment. Chemical peels can be effective in combating a number of common skin issues, including:

Chemical Peel Side Effects

Like most skin care treatments, clients can expect to experience a few mild side effects when receiving a chemical peel. These side effects can differ based on the strength of the peel and the sensitivity of the client’s skin. Common effects of a chemical peel include temporary redness, swelling, stinging or burning, dryness, and of course, peeling. These effects are expected to subside in about a week for most chemical peels. Less common side effects that are seen with stronger grade chemical peels include scarring, darkening or lightening of the skin, loss of the inability to tan/greater risks of sunburn, and possible infection for people with herpes simplex. It is extremely important to follow your provider’s post-procedure care instructions, including the use of any creams or moisturizers and staying out of the sun.

The genuine service and advice received here, as well as the outcome of the services and advice, show that my money is being well spent here. Happy I invested in myself at Pure Skin. Other medical spas have made me feel as though I don’t belong there, but here they treat everyone as a priority and I’ve never felt more comfortable. I’ve been a loyal client for over a year now 💜

Pure Skin is amazing! I had previously gotten my lips done elsewhere and I was so upset with the results- Jen at Pure Skin transformed my thin lips into a sexy plumped pout! I can't recommend this place enough! I already made my 6 week follow up because I am so excited! Pure skin is also super clean and covid cautious- they know what theyre doing! Keep up the great work!

- Lindsay C.

My very first visit here and I was greeted with smiles and kindness. I’m new at this so for me I should have paid attention more. They offer a second visit within two weeks if your not happy. Because it was my first time I didn’t understand that the lips usually take a second fill to “ fill” up. I respect the fact that they at least do that. I’m pleased with their product. The place itself is beautiful as well. Can’t wait for my second fill

- Robbin S.

The environment at Pure Skin is amazing! I enjoyed my time there thanks to the wonderful staff and a calm environment. They made me feel comfortable getting my chin filler as I was guided every step of the way. I highly recommend Pure Skin to anyone in the area looking for any service of skincare!

Not only was Suzanne very professional, she was very welcoming and kind. Suzanne put my nervous mind at ease considering it being my first time. She really listened to all my concerns regarding my insecurities with my face. She did a great job. The spa it’s self was very beautiful. It had a very calm and serene vibe. Over all great experience, would absolutely recommend.
