If you’re tired of playing connect-the-dots with your breakouts or feeling like your skin is stuck in a perpetual teenage phase, this program is your exit strategy. We’ve designed these peels to tackle everything from stubborn congestion to the ghosts of pimples past, giving you a clean slate.
You struggle with clogged pores, blackheads, and whiteheads that just won't clear up with standard over-the-counter washes.
Your active acne has subsided, but you are left with hyperpigmentation, dark spots, or uneven texture that needs resurfacing.
Your skin produces excess oil throughout the day in the Florida humidity, contributing to inflammation and frequent cyclical breakouts.
From Consultation to Clarity
When you arrive at Skin Lounge Med Spa, we start with a complete skin analysis. We don’t guess with chemical peels; we assess your current barrier restore, acne type, and skin sensitivity to select the specific acid blend that will clear your skin without causing unnecessary trauma.
Your esthetician will thoroughly cleanse and degrease your skin to remove all oils and makeup. This step is crucial as it ensures the peel penetrates evenly. We may apply a barrier balm to sensitive areas like the corners of the nose and eyes for protection.
The chemical solution is applied in layers. You might feel a tingling, warming, or itchy sensation—this is the active ingredients getting to work on bacteria and dead skin cells. We monitor your skin’s reaction closely, neutralizing the peel at the perfect moment to ensure safety and efficacy.
Once the peel is removed or self-neutralized, we apply a calming serum, a heavy dose of hydration, and essential SPF. Before you leave, we provide a detailed roadmap for the next few days, covering everything from how to wash your face to managing the peeling process.
Customized intensity levels to match your skin's tolerance
A superficial peel using Salicylic or Mandelic acid. This is perfect for mild congestion and first-timers. It provides a deep exfoliation with little to no visible peeling, leaving you with an immediate glow and cleaner pores.
A medium-depth peel, often a Jessner’s blend or higher concentration Glycolic. This targets cystic acne and moderate scarring. Expect 2-4 days of light flaking or peeling as the skin purges impurities and resurfaces.
Our strongest tier involving TCA or advanced blended peels (like The Perfect Derma™). Designed for severe acne scarring and stubborn hyperpigmentation. This involves significant peeling for about a week but delivers the most dramatic transformation.
A non-intensive add-on that kills acne-causing bacteria deep within the pores and reduces redness immediately after your peel.
Uses an electrical current to zap stubborn cystic zits, reduce inflammation, and oxygenate the skin to prevent future breakouts.
Expert removal of non-inflamed comedones (blackheads) prior to the peel application to ensure the pores are as clear as possible.
A cooling massage using chilled globes to soothe the skin, reduce heat generated by the peel, and minimize pore appearance.
Investments in your skin's future clarity
Reclaim your complexion with our targeted, professional-strength chemical peel series designed for lasting clarity.
However, South Florida’s humidity can wreak havoc on congestion-prone skin, leading to persistent breakouts. At Skin Lounge Med Spa, we curate aggressive yet elegant acne peel programs that clear breakouts and fade scarring, ensuring you look radiant for every Royal Palm Yacht Club social or quiet beach day at Spanish River.
Holistic Pairings for Inner & Outer Radiance
At Skin Lounge Med Spa, true clarity is achieved through a 360-degree approach to wellness. While your Acne Peel Program targets surface congestion and texture, extending your stay allows us to nurture the internal wellness required for lasting results.
Maximize your skin’s recovery time by relaxing in our lounge with a Glow Hydration Recovery Add-On, designed to flush toxins and hydrate your cells from within. Alternatively, combat the stress hormones that trigger breakouts by adding a therapeutic Massage to your visit, or discuss a future maintenance schedule involving our soothing Custom Facials to protect your investment and maintain that glass-skin finish.
It depends on the peel strength. Light peels may cause microscopic flaking you won't notice, while stronger peels (Level 3) will result in visible sheets of peeling skin for 3-5 days.
Most clients experience a tingling, itching, or warming sensation that is very manageable. We can use a fan to keep you cool during the application process.
Please step away from the mirror! Picking at your skin creates open wounds, which can make the chemical peel penetrate too deeply and cause burns or scarring.
Yes, but we must be selective. Certain acids are safer for melanin-rich skin than others; we specialize in choosing peels that avoid post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Sometimes 'purging' occurs, where underlying congestion comes to the surface faster. This is actually a good sign that the peel is working to clear out the blockage.
