Chemical peels use exfoliating solutions to gently remove the outermost layers of the skin. Depending on the formula used and your skin’s needs, they can treat:
- Sun damage and pigmentation
- Uneven skin tone or rough texture
- Fine lines and mild scarring
- Post-summer acne and congestion
- General dullness or lack of radiance
At Glo Skin & Medspa, our team will assess your skin and recommend a peel suited to your concerns and sensitivity level. Every peel is performed under clinical conditions with your skin’s safety and long-term health in mind.
What to Expect From a Peel at Glo Skin & Medspa
When you book a chemical peel with our Edmonton clinic, your treatment begins with a detailed skin consultation. Your provider will evaluate your skin's condition and recommend a customized medical-grade peel to target your specific goals.
Most peels involve the following steps:
- Deep cleanse to remove impurities
- Application of the peel solution, selected based on your skin type
- Neutralization and soothing serums
- Post-care advice and skincare guidance
You may experience light peeling or flaking over a few days, depending on the depth of the treatment. Most clients notice brighter, more even skin within 5–7 days, with optimal results continuing to improve over time.
Complementary Treatments for Enhanced Results
If you're looking to boost your results or want a multi-step fall skin strategy, these treatments from our service menu can pair well with peels:
Clear & Brilliant™ Laser
A non-ablative fractional laser ideal for improving tone, texture, and early signs of sun damage. It's gentle, safe for most skin types, and a good complement to light-to-medium peels.
Oxygenating Facial
This clinical-grade treatment detoxifies and re-energizes tired, sun-exposed skin. It’s great for those who aren’t ready for a peel or want something with no downtime.
Microdermabrasion
A mechanical exfoliation option that polishes away dull surface skin and preps the skin for better product absorption.
While chemical peels are the foundation of most fall skincare resets, layering them with these options can further improve texture, hydration, and long-term skin resilience.
Why Fall is the Best Time to Peel
Cooler weather means reduced sun exposure, which allows your skin to heal without additional UV stress. This also means better, longer-lasting results. Fall is also a great time to prepare your skin for the holiday season and winter months ahead, when dryness and dullness can return if left untreated.
Whether you’re dealing with visible sun damage or just want to hit refresh, now’s the time to book your appointment.
