Our Acne-Focused Glycolic Peel is a targeted chemical exfoliation treatment designed to clear congestion, reduce active breakouts, and smooth skin texture. Ideal for acne-prone individuals in Boca Raton, this Professional peel penetrates deep into pores to dissolve oil and dead skin cells, revealing a clearer, healthier complexion without significant downtime.
If you are tired of playing hide-and-seek with blemishes that always seem to win, this treatment might be your new best friend. It is specifically formulated for those who need a heavy hitter against congestion but still want to keep their skin barrier happy and hydrated.
You constantly battle shine and clogged pores that over-the-counter scrubs just can't seem to clear.
You have rough skin texture or mild scarring from past breakouts and want a smoother canvas.
You experience frequent flare-ups and need a preventative treatment to keep bacteria and dead skin at bay.
From consultation to glow-here is what to expect during your visit.
Welcome to Skin Lounge Med Spa! After checking in, we’ll sit down to discuss your current skin frustrations and goals. We’ll analyze your skin type to determine the perfect glycolic acid concentration for your tolerance level.
We start with a thorough double cleanse to remove makeup and surface oils. This ensures the peel can penetrate evenly. We then apply a prep solution to balance your pH levels, getting your skin ready for the main event.
The glycolic solution is applied carefully by our experts. You might feel a spicy tingle or warmth—that’s just the magic working to dissolve the glue holding dead skin cells together. We monitor your skin closely throughout this step to ensure safety and comfort.
Once the peel has done its job, we neutralize the acid to stop the exfoliation process. We finish with a cooling mask, hydration, and heavy-duty SPF to protect your fresh skin before sending you back out into the Boca sun.

Most clients feel a tingling or 'spicy' sensation for a few minutes while the acid is active, but it is rarely painful. We use a fan to keep you comfortable, and the sensation stops immediately once we neutralize the peel.
This is generally considered a 'lunchtime peel.' You may experience some redness immediately after and mild flaking for 3-5 days, but you won't need to hide away. Just keep it hydrated and protected.
While you will notice a glow after one session, acne control usually requires consistency. We typically recommend a series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced 2-4 weeks apart for significant clearing.
We recommend waiting at least 24 hours to let your pores breathe and the skin settle. If you absolutely must, use clean mineral makeup, but going bare is best.
Yes, but with caution. Glycolic acid is generally safe, but we may start with a lower concentration or shorter duration to prevent hyperpigmentation. We always analyze your skin type first.
Not usually. Glycolic acid consists of small molecules that penetrate deep to exfoliate, often resulting in 'micro-peeling' (like eraser dust) rather than sheets of skin falling off.
Your skin will be photosensitive. You must avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for at least a week, and wear high-SPF sunscreen daily—especially here in Florida.
It breaks down the bonds between dead skin cells that clog pores and trap bacteria. By removing this debris, oil can flow freely, preventing the formation of new pimples.
We recommend waiting at least 2 weeks between a chemical peel and advanced skin treatments to ensure your skin has fully restoreed and to avoid irritation or product migration.
Glycolic acid is often considered safe in low concentrations, but every pregnancy is different.
