The Science Behind Chemical Peels

Woman against pink background is pampered before her chemical peel. Chemical peels are a proven way to refresh your skin, soften imperfections, and reveal a brighter, more even complexion. At Cosmetic and Reconstructive Specialists of Florida, our medspa team offers light and medium-depth peels using medical-grade solutions to gently exfoliate and renew your skin. While the treatment is non-surgical, its effects are backed by real science — and when performed by trained professionals, the results can be dramatic.

How Chemical Peels Work

A chemical peel uses a carefully selected acidic solution — often alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), or trichloroacetic acid (TCA) — to remove the outer layers of dead and damaged skin. Once applied, the solution breaks down the bonds between skin cells, prompting the outermost layer to shed and reveal newer, healthier skin underneath.

This controlled exfoliation also stimulates your skin’s natural repair process. As the damaged skin cells slough off, collagen production increases, circulation improves, and cell turnover accelerates. The result is smoother texture, improved clarity, and a more youthful glow.

Benefits of Light and Medium Peels

At our Fort Lauderdale medspa, we provide gentle and medium medical-grade peels tailored to your skin type and concerns.

  • Light peels gently exfoliate the surface layer and are great for improving tone, mild discoloration, and dullness.
  • Medium peels penetrate deeper, targeting fine lines, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation.

Unlike deep peels, which require extensive recovery and are performed under physician supervision, light and medium peels involve minimal downtime and can be safely repeated for cumulative results.

Why Professional Application Matters

Although chemical peels may seem straightforward, they require medical knowledge and precision. Our experienced medspa professionals are trained in skin physiology and peel application techniques to ensure each treatment is safe, effective, and personalized. We carefully assess your skin, select the right formula, and provide detailed aftercare guidance to maximize your results.
