It is important to understand that not all Peels are created equal; peel efficacy varies depending on the PH of the peel (acid). The lower the PH of the peel the stronger the results, a 100% acid peel with a high PH is weaker and less effective than a 50% peel with a low PH. Synergy Spa & Aesthetics uses low ph peels that are non-buffered to ensure the greatest results. Please note: If you are currently using a topical prescription on your face such as Retin A, Renova, Tazorac, Benzol Peroxide, or any form of AHA’s such as Glycolic Acid you will need to stop and wait at least 72 hours before a facial peel can be performed.

Work’s slightly deeper than level II peels. Pre-prepping with a minimum of 2 level II peels and the use of proper pre- prep home care products may be required before a level III peel will be performed. Proper pre-prepping minimizes down time, however, there is the potential of minor “crusting”, darkening of brown spots until they peel off, redness and moderate peeling of the skin 2-3 days following the procedure that may last 5-7 days.

This is an add-on service which is performed before a skin peel. A gentle scraping of surface skin that removes a micro-thin layer of dead skin cells. This allows skin care products to penetrate the skin more effectively. It also tricks your skin into pushing up new, healthy skin cells to the surface. No irritation is created by dermaplaning and most skin types are good candidates for this procedure. - $55 when added to any peel or facial with peel service.
This medical grade peel is offered in two strengths, depending on your desired outcome. While it is more gentle than traditional medical peels, you will still see equally amazing results. If refining texture and removing unwanted dark spots is a result you are looking for, this is a great option for you! - $175, Advanced $225
For Maximum results 3-6 peels spaced 2-3 weeks apart are general recommended depending upon which peels are being performed. Ask your aesthetician for more information.
Depending upon which peel you received and how sensitive your skin feels there may be a slight burning sensation for the first 3-4 days post peel when applying any home care products. If this occurs it may be necessary to limit application of a particular product.
