Rejuvenate Your Skin

Chemical Peel Treatments

Damaged or uneven skin can often be improved with a chemical peel, which removes dead surface cells to stimulate the development of beautiful, healthy skin. A light or deep treatment can offer long-lasting benefits for damaged skin on your face, neck, and chest. Dr. Feledy and Dr. Maiorino performs chemical peels at their plastic surgery clinics in Chevy Chase, Maryland and in Stafford, Virginia.

Treatment For You

What can be treated with a chemical peel?

This treatment is ideally suited for achieving the appearance of younger-looking skin. Chemical peels can address the following common issues:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Poor complexion
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Some scars (e.g. acne scars)

Light peels are suitable for addressing mild problems such as fine wrinkles or slightly uneven skin texture. Deep peels are more potent and can address more difficult and deeper wrinkles. Ask Dr. Feledy or Dr. Maiorino which peel might be best suited for your unique needs.

Ideal Candidates

Am I a good candidate for a chemical peel?

Chemical peels are suitable for most ages, with younger patients often seeking the procedure to address mild to moderate acne scars. Older patients typically want to target wrinkles or uneven skin tone. Patients with darker skin may not be suitable patients for a chemical peel because the procedure can change the pigmentation of the skin. People with darker skin should consult with Dr. Feledy or Dr. Maiorino about their skin treatment options.

Chemical Peel Procedure

What happens during a chemical peel?

This procedure is very simple and often takes about 15 minutes. After your skin has been cleansed, a chemical peel solution is applied to the treatment area – usually the face, the neck and the chest. The solution remains on your skin for some time before being removed. Some Washington DC chemical peel patients may need more than one treatment.
