What Is Perfect Derma™ Peel?

The Perfect Derma™ Peel is a professional, medium-depth chemical peel formulated with a unique blend of ingredients including TCA, Salicylic Acid, Retinoic Acid, Kojic Acid, Vitamin C, Phenol, and Glutathione. This advanced blend penetrates deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen, accelerate cell turnover, and dramatically improve skin tone and texture.

It’s one of the most popular chemical peels, and one of the top ten treatments nationwide for clients seeking noticeable results without extended downtime.

FAQs

After one treatment of THE PERFECT DERMA™ PEEL, overall skin tone and complexion will appear smoother, glowing and refreshed. Depending on the skin condition and severity, multiple treatments may be necessary and recommended to achieve the desired result. A series of 2-3 treatments applied every 4 weeks will allow for optimal results for more severe skin conditions such as Melasma and active acne.

THE PERFECT DERMA™ PEEL application only takes 15 to 20 minutes to administer.

Actual visible peeling will vary with each patient. Some patients shed layers of skin for several days, while others experience a light flaking process. In most cases, peeling will begin 72 hours post application and is generally completed by day seven, with results that continue improving thereafter.

Immediately after the peel has been applied the skin will either appear red. Some of the dark spots may appear darker in color (don’t worry those will peel off). Generally, on day three, peeling will begin. The Post Peel moisturizer provided in the patient post peel kit will help mask the visible peeling by hydrating the skin. The most intense shedding will most likely be during days three, four and five. You still may have residual peeling on days six and seven.

Normal activities may be resumed immediately post peel. We recommend avoiding heavy exercise, saunas, jacuzzies during the peeling process as it will elevate body temperature and may cause irritation such as rashes or blistering of the skin.

THE PERFECT DERMA™ PEEL requires no preconditioning, but for certain skin conditions, preconditioning may help patient avoid post-peel complications such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

  • Use of Accutane within the past four months
  • Open wounds, sunburn, infected skin, or lesions

  • Those with a history of autoimmune disease or any condition that may weaken the immune system (consult a physician)
  • A history of keloids
  • Excessive sun exposure within the past two weeks
  • Current skin irritations such as perioral dermatitis, dermatitis, eczema
  • Note: Those with a history of cold sores (herpes simplex) should be given an antiviral 3 days before treatment to help prevent a breakout.

The patient may feel a slight stinging or tingling sensation which will subside after 30-60 seconds. Numbing takes place once the first pass of THE PERFECT DERMA™ PEEL solution is applied. A fan or cool breeze may be used for the comfort of the patient.

As long as the skin is maintained with proper skincare such as The Perfect A, The Perfect B Brightening Complex and The Perfect C, the improved results will last. We recommend 3 to four treatments of THE PERFECT DERMA™ PEEL per year to sustain desired results and for regular maintenance and rejuvenation.
