Chemical Peels
Am I a candidate?Over time, dead skin cells build up on your skin, causing dullness, flaking, and texture. You may be prone to dry skin, or you may find that your skin doesn’t quite look like it used to as you age. One of the best ways to give your skin a refresh is with a professional chemical peel.
For more radiant, glowing skin, it’s important to exfoliate and encourage skin cell turnover. There are two forms of exfoliation: chemical and physical. While physical exfoliation has its place, it is oftentimes too abrasive for inflamed or sensitive skin. Chemical peels in Oklahoma City are a more gentle approach.
They use professional-grade ingredients to exfoliate away dead skin cells for restored, beautiful skin. Renew Wellness & Aesthetics is proud to offer the ZO® Stimulator Peel, ZO® 3 Step Peel, and The Perfect Derma® Peel to treat all skin types, ethnicities, and skin depths.

Chemical Peel Treatment
Your provider will make sure you are comfortable and will begin by cleaning the treatment area. This is followed by degreasing the skin and applying the peel solution. After the peel, a soothing masque is applied to calm and cool the skin.
Results
Some peels, like our ZO® Glow & Go peel, reveal beautiful and radiant skin immediately after the treatment. Deeper peels may take 2 to 4 days to complete peeling and reveal your glow.

Renew Wellness & Aesthetics offers a variety of chemical peel treatments, ranging from those with no recovery or downtime to those with 5 days of active peeling. During your consultation, your provider will determine the depth of peel that is appropriate to reach your aesthetic goals.
Are chemical peels painful?
Not all chemical peels are the same; some are absolutely painless and others are a little spicy. Before your chemical peel in Oklahoma City, we will be sure to review everything you should expect during and after treatment and help you manage any symptoms as they arise.
Can you see results after one chemical peel?
Yes, regardless of which chemical peel we administer, results will be noticeable. Results will be noticeable as soon as your skin recovers, which can range from immediate for a light peel to a few days for a deeper peel.
How often should I get a chemical peel?
We recommend light chemical peels for maintenance every 4 to 6 weeks. Medium peels can be applied every 3 to 6 months. You should only receive deep chemical peels once or twice a year. Our team can help you decide the best long-term care plan for your unique skin type and aesthetic goals.
What is the best chemical peel for hyperpigmentation?
All chemical peels will improve the appearance of hyperpigmentation, but The Perfect Derma peel is a great choice to safely reduce hyperpigmentation in skin of types and ethnicities. Ask your Renew provider what chemical peel is best for your skin.
Can chemical peels help with acne and breakouts?
Certain chemical peels are specifically formulated to target acne-prone skin. By exfoliating the surface and reducing excess oil, peels help unclog pores, decrease inflammation, and minimize the formation of future blemishes. Regular treatments can also reduce post-acne marks for smoother, clearer skin.
Do chemical peels stimulate collagen production?
Yes. One of the major benefits of chemical peels is their ability to trigger the skin’s natural collagen production. Increased collagen levels help improve skin elasticity, reduce fine lines, and promote a more youthful texture over time, making peels an effective anti-aging option.
Are there different types of chemical peels?
Chemical peels in Oklahoma City range from superficial to medium and deep formulations. Superficial peels target the outermost layer of skin for gentle exfoliation, medium peels reach the mid-layer to treat pigmentation and moderate lines, and deep peels penetrate further to address pronounced wrinkles or sun damage. The type of peel is selected based on your skin type and goals.
How should I prepare my skin before a peel?
Preparation is key to optimizing results. Patients may be advised to use or stay away from specific skincare products in the weeks leading up to a peel. Sun protection is essential, and avoiding harsh exfoliants ensures your skin is calm and receptive for treatment.
Can chemical peels improve skin texture?
Absolutely. Peels remove damaged surface cells, smooth rough patches, refine enlarged pores, and enhance overall skin tone and radiance. They are effective for addressing uneven texture caused by sun damage, environmental factors, or aging.
Will chemical peels work on all skin tones?
Modern chemical peels can be tailored to virtually any skin type and tone. Renew providers carefully select the formula to safely minimize the risk of pigmentation changes, ensuring effective and even results.
Do chemical peels help with fine lines and wrinkles?
Yes. By exfoliating the outer layers and stimulating cellular turnover, chemical peels can improve the appearance of fine lines and early wrinkles.
Can I combine chemical peels with other skin treatments?
Many patients enhance their results by combining chemical peels with treatments like microneedling, laser therapy, or professional facials. These combined approaches address multiple skin concerns simultaneously for more comprehensive rejuvenation.
