If your skin is feeling dull, uneven, or just in need of a refresh, a chemical peel could be the glow-up you didn’t know you needed. At Aurora Medical Spa, we love SkinMedica chemical peels because they deliver visible results with minimal downtime—and they’re backed by science.

Let’s break down why these peels are client favorites and which one might be right for you.

What Is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel uses a blend of exfoliating acids to remove dead skin cells, revealing fresh, smooth, more radiant skin underneath. Peels help improve:

  • Fine lines & wrinkles
  • Uneven skin tone & texture
  • Sun damage
  • Acne & acne scarring
  • Dullness

Why We Use SkinMedica Peels

SkinMedica is a trusted, physician-grade skincare brand known for clinical performance and innovation. Their peels are customizable and effective, yet gentle enough to be used regularly for long-term skin health.

The SkinMedica Peel Lineup

1. Illuminize Peel – The “Glow and Go”

  • Best for: First-time peel clients, upcoming events, or sensitive skin types
  • Downtime: None
  • Results: Brighter, more radiant skin with a refreshed glow

This is the lightest peel—perfect before a big event or to give your skin a quick pick-me-up.

2. Vitalize Peel – Our Most Popular Peel

  • Best for: Mild to moderate sun damage, fine lines, or acne
  • Downtime: Mild peeling 2–3 days after treatment
  • Results: Smoother texture, brighter tone, and noticeable clarity

This mid-depth peel is a favorite for clients who want visible results but don’t want to commit to too much downtime.

3. Rejuvenize Peel – Deeper Renewal

  • Best for: Moderate to severe skin imperfections, pigment issues, or rough texture
  • Downtime: Moderate peeling for 3–5 days
  • Results: Dramatic improvement in tone, texture, and overall skin quality

Ideal for seasoned peel users or those looking to target more advanced concerns.

Post-Peel Care Tips

After any peel, your skin will be more sensitive, so proper aftercare is key:

  • Use gentle cleansers and moisturizers
  • Wear SPF 30+ daily—non-negotiable
  • Avoid exfoliants or active ingredients for a few days
  • Let the peeling happen naturally—no picking!

We’ll provide a personalized skincare routine to protect and enhance your results.
