TCA Chemical Peels

TCA peels are safe, extremely effective and natural. They are so safe they can even be used during pregnancy, when many advanced treatments are not allowed. TCA are excellent for the rejuvenation of the facial and body skin through the use of therapeutic, natural chemical agents to reduce or remove fine wrinkles, tighten the skin, reduce or remove "age spots" or other pigmentary conditions, reduce the appearance of scars, and improve skin texture and tone.

Key Benefits:

• Advanced Results
• Luminous Skin
• Collagen Building

These treatments not only reverse the signs of aging, but can also protect against skin cancers by removing sun damaged skin cells. The epidermis and dermis become thicker, more elastic and resilient with increased capacity to retain hydration resulting in a more beautiful, youthful skin.

The strength of the peel can be varied and will be carefully selected for your individual skin type. These peels do require some down time, usually creating a bronzed or sunburned appearance for a few days, followed by peeling of the skin which can last 5-7 days depending on the strength selected. Most people feel this is a small price to pay for the fabulous results. While most people only need one treatment to achieve their desired results, severely sun damaged or wrinkled skin may require additional treatments. This is a treatment the Dr. Schell has done to herself for many years as maintenance.

We recommend TCA peels for treatment of those often neglected areas of the neck, décolletage, arms and hands that give away one’s age. For at home products to compliment these treatments, ask about Dr. Schell’s Renewal serum or visit our body products section.

This peel uses agents that are completely natural in our bodies. Risks with the TCA peel are minimal, and can include hyperpigmentation in individuals with darker skin types. For those wanting or needing less recovery time, a Vitalize Peel™, Illuminize Peel™ or IPL / photorejuvenation may be for you. A consultation will help determine a TCA peel is the best treatment for you.
