Chemical Peel
A chemical peel is a treatment in which an acid solution is used to remove the damaged outer layers of the skin. It is a powerful skin exfoliating solution applied to the face, neck, or hands to reveal smooth and clear skin underneath.
What makes this technique so popular is that it’s useful for a variety of skin concerns.
In performing chemical peels, physicians apply alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), trichloroacetic acid (TCA), or phenol to the skin.

Acne Treatment
Acne is a persistent medical skin condition that can affect your face, chest, back, shoulders, and arms, and although it does not necessarily impact our physical health, it can absolutely take a mental toll.

And although acne is totally normal and nothing to be ashamed of, it can still place unnecessary stress on everyday life.
When a particularly extreme acne breakout happens, it can feel like nothing works fast enough to get us back in the clear. LED Light Therapy for acne is a tremendous treatment option for faster results.
