Are Chemical Peels Right For You?
Your skin is dull, uneven or acne prone
Chemical peels gently exfoliate the top layers of skin to reveal smoother, brighter, more even-toned skin underneath.

By clearing debris and reducing oil buildup, chemical peels help improve acne, minimize pores, and smooth rough texture.

Your provider selects a peel based on your concerns, applying it safely and evenly across the treatment area.

This controlled exfoliation removes dull, damaged skin cells and stimulates fresh cell turnover.
New, radiant skin is revealed
Over the next few days, the skin becomes smoother, brighter, more even, and visibly refreshed.
Inside the Chemical Peel Treatment
Chemical peels are professional-grade exfoliating treatments designed to improve skin tone, texture, and clarity. During the service, a low-pH solution is applied to the skin to dissolve the outermost layer of dull or damaged cells. This triggers rapid cell turnover and encourages collagen renewal, resulting in smoother, more luminous looking skin.
Peels come in different strengths, from light refreshers with virtually no downtime, to medium-depth peels that target more pronounced discoloration, melasma, sun damage, or fine lines. Commonly treated areas include the face, neck, chest, hands, back, and buttocks.
At Oakville Medical Aesthetics, your provider will help choose the right peel based on your skin type, goals, and sensitivity. Some peels produce mild flaking, while others offer instant glow without peeling at all. Most clients benefit from a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart.
