Chemical Peels

Advanced Chemical Peels for Radiant, Healthier Skin

Target Fine Lines, Acne, Discoloration, and Uneven Texture—Without Surgery

Chemical peels are one of the most trusted and effective ways to dramatically improve skin clarity and texture. At Allure Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery in St. Petersburg, our advanced medical-grade peels are tailored to treat a wide range of concerns—from acne and sun damage to melasma and visible signs of aging.

By exfoliating the outermost layers of skin and stimulating cellular regeneration, chemical peels help reveal smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin beneath. These treatments are an excellent option for patients who want visible results without downtime or invasive procedures.

Whether you’re looking for a light refresh or deeper resurfacing, our team will customize your peel to match your skin type, lifestyle, and goals.

What Conditions Can Be Treated With Chemical Peels?

Safe, Customized Treatments for All Skin Types

Chemical peels are highly versatile and can address a wide variety of skin concerns. Depending on the depth and formula, a chemical peel may be used to improve:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles

  • Sun damage and age spots

  • Acne and acne scars

  • Enlarged pores

  • Uneven skin tone and texture

  • Hyperpigmentation and melasma

  • Dull or rough skin

All treatments are performed under the supervision of our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Percy Lo, to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Types of Peels Available

From Gentle Refreshers to Deep Resurfacing Options

At Allure, we offer a range of chemical peels suited to different skin concerns and levels of sensitivity:

  • Light Peels (Superficial): Use mild acids (like alpha hydroxy acid) to gently exfoliate the skin. Great for maintenance and improving brightness.

  • Medium Peels: Use trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to target deeper lines, age spots, and pigmentation irregularities.

  • Deep Peels: Penetrate to deeper layers of skin for more dramatic resurfacing results. Typically used for deeper wrinkles, scars, and stubborn pigmentation. These require more downtime but offer more dramatic improvement.

What to Expect After Your Chemical Peel

Minimal Downtime and Long-Lasting Results

Recovery time varies based on the strength of the peel, but you can generally expect:

  • Light peels: Mild redness or flaking for 1–3 days

  • Medium peels: Peeling and tightness for 5–7 days

  • Deep peels: Significant peeling and sensitivity for 7–10 days or more

Our team provides complete aftercare instructions, including skin-soothing tips and sun protection guidance, to support healing and enhance results.
