Chemical Peels

Improve the look and feel of your skin with a chemical peel!

A Chemical Peel is an acidic gel applied to the skin to resurface the top layer of the skin in order to promote the growth of new skin cells. The regenerated skin is smoother than the old skin, creating a fresh-faced glow.

What is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a medical-grade facial solution which triggers your skin to “blister” and peel. With this, new, smoother, and softer skin emerges.

Chemical peels can be applied to the face, neck, and hands to treat:

  • Fine lines around the mouth or eyes  
  • Wrinkles caused by sun damage and aging  
  • Mild scars  
  • Certain kinds of acne  
  • Age spots & freckles 

Treatment Procedure

At Guelph Medical Laser, we offer the Retamax Chemical Peel. This peel is a part of the Zo Skin Care line created by Dr.Obagi.

Retamax uses an innovative micro emulsion technology that blends a potent Retinol (Vitamin A) with plant stem cells and antioxidants. This solution is applied to the skin to reverse signs of aging and prevents future damage.

Retamax also helps trigger the natural production of collagen and hyaluronic acid, resulting in a stronger skin barrier and hyrdrated skin.

During the treatment, it is common to experience a mild tingling sensation. After about 15 minutes, the treatment is complete.

For optimal results, we recommend 4 treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart.
