If your skincare routine has hit a plateau and surface-level facials just aren’t cutting it, it might be time to go deeper. This treatment is the sweet spot for significant correction without the heavy downtime or risks associated with specialized procedures.
You have stubborn brown spots or hormonal pigmentation that topicals won't touch.
You want to smooth out texture and reduce the appearance of past breakout marks.
You are looking to soften static wrinkles and fine lines for a smoother canvas.
From the Tingle to the Transformation
When you arrive at Skin Lounge Med Spa, we’ll start by thoroughly cleansing your skin to remove all oils and makeup. This step is crucial to ensure the peel penetrates evenly. We will protect sensitive areas like the corners of your eyes and nose with a barrier balm.
Your provider will apply the chemical solution in layers. You will likely feel a sensation of heat or ‘spiciness’ that peaks for a few minutes. Don’t worry—we use a fan to keep you cool and comfortable. The solution may be self-neutralizing or removed depending on the specific acid used.
Once the treatment is complete, your skin may look slightly frosted or red, similar to a sunburn. We will apply a specialized post-peel protectant and SPF. You’ll be given a take-home kit and precise instructions on how to care for your skin as it begins the peeling process over the next few days.
Customized intensities for your skin goals
Our standard medium-depth peel using Trichloroacetic Acid. Excellent for overall resurfacing, tightening pores, and addressing moderate sun damage. Expect 3-5 days of visible peeling.
A blended peel specifically formulated with brighteners like Kojic Acid and Vitamin C alongside the peeling agents. This is the go-to choice for tackling stubborn melasma and hyperpigmentation.
Formulated with Salicylic acid and Phenol blends, this tier targets active acne and deeper acne scarring. It penetrates effectively to clear congestion and smooth out rolling scars.
Removes peach fuzz and dead skin cells before the peel application to allow for deeper, more even penetration of the acid.
A high-potency application immediately post-peel to accelerate restoring and boost collagen production.
Extend the rejuvenation down to your chest area to ensure your face matches your body.
Red light therapy used during a follow-up visit to reduce inflammation and speed up the recovery process.

Erase Years of Florida Sun for a Porcelain Finish
Living the high life in Boca Raton implies time in the sun— Unfortunately, that wellness-focused care lifestyle leaves behind sun spots, dullness, and fine lines.

We go deeper than a standard facial to shed damaged layers, revealing the pristine, ‘glass skin’ complexion required for the social season at The Royal Palm.

If you want to extend your visit, ask about a customized facial plan, gentle peel support, or another appropriate skin care service. We will recommend only what fits your skin goals, comfort level, and schedule.
You will feel a stinging or burning sensation for a few minutes while the acid is active. We use fans to minimize discomfort, and the sensation usually subsides quickly once the solution neutralizes or the numbing kicks in.
Expect 'social downtime.' You will look sunburned for the first 2 days, and active peeling usually starts on day 3 and lasts until day 7. We recommend not scheduling major events for 10 days post-peel.
Absolutely not. Picking or pulling at the shedding skin can cause scarring and hyperpigmentation. You must let the skin slough off naturally or trim loose edges carefully with sanitized scissors.
You should avoid makeup for the first few days while the skin is raw or peeling heavily. Once the peeling has subsided significantly, usually around day 5 or 6, you can resume using mineral makeup.
Certain medium-depth peels, like the VI Peel, are formulated to be safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types. However, we always perform a thorough consultation to ensure we choose a blend that minimizes the risk of hyperpigmentation.
While you will see a glow after one treatment, significant correction of acne scars or deep pigment usually requires a series of 3 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart.
You must avoid heavy sweating for at least 72 to 96 hours. Sweat can get trapped under the dead skin layers and cause blisters or irritation, so skip the hot yoga and heavy cardio.
Your fresh skin is extremely vulnerable. Sun exposure can cause severe burns and permanent dark spots. You must wear high SPF and avoid direct sun exposure in Boca Raton for at least 2 weeks.
Facial peels generally only exfoliate the very top layer (stratum corneum) for a quick glow with no downtime. Medium-depth peels reach the dermis, stimulating real collagen production and structural change.
You will see fresh, glowing skin as soon as the peeling finishes (around day 7-10). However, collagen stimulation continues for weeks, so texture improvements often get better over the following month.
