Refresh, revitalize and renew your complexion with a chemical peel from Dr. Karam
This is a superficial San Diego chemical peel with superior hydrating properties. As a byproduct, it improves product penetration. You receive a choice of 50% or 75% lactic acid in your peel solution. It is safe, effective medical grade peel that is ideal for dry, dehydrated and photo-damaged skin with little to no downtime. This peel produces micro-exfoliation and long lasting skin hydration. You will experience 1-3 days downtime.
This peel uses a unique concentration of lactic, salicylic, and azelaic acids and AHA Retinoid Conjugate. It targets pores and reduces the appearance of blemishes/skin imperfections, while also minimizing the appearance of age spots and pigmentation. It improves tone, texture and resilience of skin while increasing collagen production. There is a 5-7 day downtime.
Revive your youth with this unique concentration of phenol, TCA, salicylic and lactic acids. It is a medium depth medical grade peel ideal for aging, wrinkled and photo-damaged skin. It works to improve texture, tone and resilience for a more youthful appearance while increasing collagen production and reducing signs of sun damage. Skin hydration is also improved. This San Diego chemical peel has a 7-10 day downtime.
The ZO 3-step peel is an innovative, restorative facial rejuvenation procedure that treats imperfections such as acne scars, enlarged pores, uneven skin textures, wrinkles and fine lines, and melisma. Treatment at the office is followed up by maintenance treatment at home, thus extending the peel’s results beyond that of ordinary facials.
Step one: Salicyclic acid, lactic acid and trichloracetic acid are applied.
Step two: A 6% retinol cream is administered right after the peel, and again 5 hours later
Step three: A soothing topical cream is applied continuously after the peel that softens and hydrates the skin.
The Jessner chemical peel in San Diego is medium-strength and is designed to remove damaged layers of depleted cells and fight the everyday stress of environmental toxins. Treatment results tend to last longer than the average peel, making it especially popular about facial rejuvenation practitioners.
The Jessner peel has three key ingredients, which include lactic acid, salicylic acid and resorcinol. Together, these three compounds help to exfoliate, penetrate and heal broken, compromised skin.
At first, your skin may be tight, dry and red, as well as slightly sensitive. These are all normal reactions to our San Diego chemical peel, and just means that the peel has done its job. Slowly over the course of about a week, the skin will turn from a pinkish color to a more brown shade. Once the damaged layer has been shed, however, your new complexion will be glowing and healthy. So expect about 7-10 days of recovery.
