Chemical Peel Fredericksburg, VA | Dr. Howard P. Heppe, MD

What is a Chemical Peel?

At Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg, chemical peel treatments offer a comprehensive solution for skin rejuvenation. Using medical-grade exfoliating solutions like salicylic, glycolic, lactic, and trichloroacetic acids, these treatments effectively resolve various skin abnormalities. The procedure removes damaged skin cells, enabling natural skin repair and revealing a smoother, clearer complexion.

Treatment Approach

Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg provides customized chemical peel treatments performed by experienced plastic surgeons Dr. Howard Heppe, Dr. Harold Bautista, and Dr. Pejman Aflaki. These noninvasive facial treatments target multiple skin concerns with precision and expertise.

Benefits of Chemical Peel Treatments

• Evens and calms skin tone
• Reduces visible pores and skin flaws
• Minimizes dynamic lines and aging marks
• Enhances skin texture and hydration

Treatment Procedure

During your appointment, patients are positioned comfortably while a team member cleanses the skin and applies a customized chemical solution. The solution is carefully spread and left on for a specific duration determined during the initial consultation. Afterward, the solution is cleaned off, and a neutralizing agent is applied.

Candidate Evaluation

Chemical peel candidates include both women and men experiencing skin concerns such as scars, rough patches, discoloration, flaky skin, wrinkles, fine lines, and sun spots. A comprehensive skin assessment helps determine the most appropriate peel strength for individual needs.

Treatment Considerations

The ideal chemical peel depends on unique skin requirements and cosmetic goals. Factors like overall health, skin type, desired treatment depth, and recovery time are carefully considered during the initial consultation.

Complementary Treatments

Chemical peels may be combined with other nonsurgical skin treatments like injectable wrinkle treatments (BOTOX® or JUVÉDERM®) to provide comprehensive skin rejuvenation.
