Who Should Exercise Caution:
The recovery process after a chemical peel is crucial for achieving optimal results and ensuring your skin heals properly. At The Skin Center by Charlotte Plastic Surgery, we're committed to supporting you throughout your recovery journey.
Remember, the intensity and duration of the recovery process can vary based on the depth of your peel. Superficial peels may have minimal downtime, while deeper peels require more extensive aftercare. We provide comprehensive aftercare instructions tailored to your specific treatment. Our team is always available to address any concerns during your recovery process, ensuring you achieve the best possible results from your chemical peel.
Here's what you need to know:
The journey to rejuvenated skin begins immediately after your chemical peel at The Skin Center by Charlotte Plastic Surgery. Here's what you can expect:
Immediate Effects
Short-Term Results (1-2 Weeks)
Long-Term Results (4-6 Weeks)
Remember, consistency is key. While a single chemical peel can provide noticeable improvements, a series of treatments often yields the most dramatic and long-lasting results.

The cost of a chemical peel can vary depending on the type of peel and the area being treated. At The Skin Center by Charlotte Plastic Surgery, superficial peels typically range from $150 to $300, medium peels from $250 to $600, and deep peels from $600 to $3,000. During your consultation, we'll provide a detailed cost breakdown based on your specific treatment plan.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during a chemical peel. You may feel a slight stinging or warmth during application, which usually subsides quickly. For medium or deep peels, we may use a numbing cream or pain medication to ensure your comfort. Any post-treatment discomfort is typically mild and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
The frequency of chemical peels depends on the type of peel and your skin's needs:
Our skincare experts will recommend the best schedule for your specific skin concerns and goals.
While at-home peels are available, professional chemical peels offer several significant advantages:
For safety and best results, we recommend professional chemical peels performed by our experienced practitioners at The Skin Center by Charlotte Plastic Surgery.
We recommend avoiding makeup for at least 24-48 hours after a chemical peel to allow your skin to heal properly. Deeper peels may require a longer period of going makeup-free. Once you resume wearing makeup, use clean brushes and choose non-irritating, mineral-based products. Our team will provide specific guidelines based on your peel type and skin condition.
Chemical peels can be safe for most skin types when performed by a skilled professional. However, individuals with darker skin tones may be at higher risk for post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. At The Skin Center by Charlotte Plastic Surgery, we carefully assess each patient's skin type and condition to recommend the most appropriate and safe treatment options.
Chemical peels can significantly improve the appearance of mild to moderate acne scars, especially when combined with other treatments. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results. During your consultation, we'll evaluate your acne scars and recommend the most effective treatment plan, which may include a series of chemical peels or a combination of treatments.
