CHEMICAL PEEL (T.C.A. Peel)

Facial Procedures:
You may consider a chemical skin peel...

• If you have superficial wrinkles of the face, neck, upper chest, arms, and hands
  
• If you have deeper facial wrinkling
  
• If you have uneven pigmentation problems caused by sun exposure, prescription drugs, or disease
  
• If you have enlarged facial pores
  
• If you have superficial acne scars of the face
  
• If you have "age spots" on your face, upper chest, and/or arms and hands

A chemical skin peel will enhance your appearance--your skin will be smoother and more youthful and the color will be more uniform.

Chemical skin peels are done on an outpatient basis under sedation. Light peels may be done without any anesthesia. After preparing the skin, a series of solutions may be applied. Light, moderate, or deep peels are available. A consultation is required to determine which type of peel (if any) will achieve the results you desire. You will return home with specific written instructions. The treated areas are washed and medicated lotions are usually applied several times daily. After light peels, the treated skin turns red or pink and heals without crusting. After moderate or deep peels, a superficial crust usually forms and peels off 3-7 days later (like a sunburn blister)--revealing a new skin surface that is smoother. The skin redness after deeper peels fades in a month or two.

Additional facial procedures such as Facelift, Forehead Lift/Brow Lift, Eyelid Lift, Cheek and/or Lip Enhancement, Fat Transfer, Botox® Cosmetic, and Nose Reshaping can be performed at the same time.

We invite you to schedule a private consultation with Dr. Bennett or one of our nurse coordinators. During the consultation all aspects of your proposed surgery will be discussed including preparation, relative risks, recovery, range of fees, and financing options. We gladly schedule from one to two hours for your consultation. We encourage you to ask questions and express your needs and concerns in a relaxed and unhurried atmosphere.
