Medical Grade Peels Overview

A Transformative Approach To Skin Renewal

Over time, sun exposure, fine lines, uneven tone, and persistent blemishes can leave your skin looking tired or prematurely aged. When your complexion doesn’t reflect how vibrant you feel, it can affect your confidence. The good news: your skin is designed to regenerate. With professionally administered treatments like chemical peels in Atlanta, you can stimulate healthy turnover, improve clarity, and reveal a smoother, more radiant appearance.

Chemical Peel Options At RefreshMD

Every peel is selected based on your skin type, concerns, and desired level of downtime. Our experienced medical team will guide you toward the option best suited to your goals, including:

BioRePeel®

A gentle, low-downtime peel that refreshes dull skin and enhances overall glow with minimal visible peeling. Ideal for patients seeking subtle revitalization without interrupting their schedule.

VI Peel®

A deeper exfoliating treatment that targets uneven tone, discoloration, and textural irregularities while stimulating collagen renewal.

VI Peel Advanced®

Formulated for more mature skin or advanced concerns, this peel supports collagen production while softening fine lines, wrinkles, acne, and even stretch marks.

VI Peel Purify®

Designed specifically for acne-prone and oily skin, this medium-depth peel helps clear breakouts, reduce inflammation, and improve overall clarity. Suitable for teens and adults alike.

VI Peel Purify with Precision Plus®

An enhanced acne-focused peel that also addresses post-acne discoloration and textural scarring, helping to refine and brighten the complexion.

VI Peel Precision Plus®

Ideal for pigment-related concerns such as sun damage, melasma, and hyperpigmentation. This medium-depth option helps create a more even, luminous skin tone and is appropriate for a wide range of skin types.

How Chemical Peels Enhance Your Skin

Chemical peels work by exfoliating the outermost layer of compromised skin, allowing fresh, healthier cells to surface. This controlled renewal process encourages improved tone, smoother texture, and a clearer overall complexion.

As new skin emerges, concerns such as discoloration, sun damage, and uneven pigmentation can visibly fade. Many patients also notice softening of fine lines and an overall brighter, more hydrated appearance.

Peels are available in varying strengths—from light refreshers to deeper resurfacing treatments—so your provider can tailor the depth and intensity to your specific skin goals and tolerance.

What To Expect Before Your Chemical Peel

Your experience begins with a personalized consultation at RefreshMD. During this visit, a trained medical aesthetic provider will assess your skin type, concerns, and goals to determine which peel formulation and strength are most appropriate for you.

Once your treatment plan is selected, you’ll receive detailed pre-care instructions. Depending on the peel chosen, you may be advised to pause certain skincare products or treatments beforehand to ensure your skin is properly prepared and protected. Thoughtful preparation helps optimize both safety and results.

Katherine was very friendly and did a wonderful job. She made me feel completely pampered and relaxed. My skin was glowing after the treatment, and I’ve never felt more refreshed. I ended up purchasing all the products she recommended, and my skin still feels smooth and radiant. Thank you, Katherine, for making me feel so beautiful!

I got a hydro facial with Katherine and it was amazing. My skin felt clean and amazing after and cleared my skin beautifully. I will for sure be coming back again.

What Happens During A Chemical Peel?

Your appointment at RefreshMD typically takes about 45 minutes from start to finish. This includes time to review your goals, perform the peel, and go over detailed aftercare instructions. The solution itself is usually applied for approximately 15–20 minutes, depending on the type and strength selected. During application, you may feel warmth, tingling, or a mild stinging sensation. These feelings are temporary and vary based on individual sensitivity and peel depth. Cooling techniques, such as a handheld fan, can help keep you comfortable. The sensation generally fades shortly after the treatment is complete.

How Will My Skin Look Immediately After?

It’s common to experience mild to moderate redness following a peel, similar to a light sunburn. The intensity depends on the depth of the treatment and your individual skin response. As the exfoliation process unfolds over the next several days, fresh skin gradually replaces the outer layer.

You’ll receive personalized post-care instructions, including guidance on gentle cleansing, hydrating products, and daily sun protection suited to your skin type.

Protecting Your Skin After A Peel

Newly revealed skin is more sensitive to environmental exposure—especially sunlight. For at least one week, diligent sun protection is essential. A broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher should be applied daily, along with minimizing prolonged sun exposure.

Once peeling has fully resolved, you may gradually resume your regular active skincare products as directed by your provider.

What Results Can You Expect?

As the skin renews, you’ll notice improved smoothness, brightness, and overall clarity. Tone becomes more even, texture feels softer, and concerns such as discoloration, fine lines, and blemishes appear less prominent.

For continued improvement, chemical peels can be incorporated into your long-term skincare plan and repeated at intervals recommended by your RefreshMD provider—often every few weeks, depending on your goals.
