Six reasons why our patients love chemical peels
Chemical peels are a wonderful and affordable way to exfoliate the skin and improve its texture and tone. This specialized facial treatment can be used for aging skin, pigmentation problems, and overall skin texture and tone. Let’s look at six popular reasons why patients visiting Essential Dermatology of Needham, Massachusetts, often ask about chemical peel treatments.
Six reasons why our patients choose chemical peels
- Cost. Chemical peels are an extremely affordable alternative to more invasive treatments like laser resurfacing or plastic surgery. This makes them accessible to a wider range of patients who may not be able to afford pricier options.
- Visible results. One of the main reasons our patients love chemical peels is because they can see and feel immediate results after just one treatment. The peel removes dead skin cells, revealing brighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
- Versatility. Chemical peels are skin treatments used to specifically treat a wide array of skin concerns, including hyperpigmentation, acne, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and sun-damaged skin. This versatility makes them appealing to patients with different skin types and concerns.
- Minimal downtime. Unlike some other treatments, chemical peels require minimal downtime. Most of our area patients resume their daily activities right after the treatment. This is especially beneficial for those with busy schedules who cannot afford to take time off for recovery.
- Customizable treatments. Our patients also love that chemical peels can be tailored to fit their specific needs. We offer a range of peel strengths and formulations to target different skin concerns and sensitivities.
- Long-lasting results. With regular use, chemical peels can provide long-lasting results and improve overall skin health. They can help maintain a smooth and radiant complexion by stimulating collagen production and reducing the depth of any fine lines and wrinkles over time.

Are chemical peels right for me?
When you visit Essential Dermatology of Needham, Massachusetts, we can assess your current skin situation and discuss your concerns and what you would like to address. Then, we can assist you in making a decision about chemical peels and whether they are right for you.
What type of chemical peel should I choose?
There are a few different types of peels that you can choose from, including superficial peels, medium-depth peels, and deep peels. Deep peels require more social downtime than superficial peels due to the extensive removal of dead skin they cause. We can select a treatment that meets your needs and talk to you about the differences so you can make a knowledgeable decision for your chemical peel and skincare needs.
