What Is the Perfect Derma Peel?

Smooth, Radiant, Confident

The Perfect Derma Peel treatment utilizes a specialized peel solution that combines trichloroacetic acid, kojic acid, salicylic acid, retinoic acid, and a powerful antioxidant blend. Unlike lighter chemical exfoliations, this medium-depth peel works through the entire peel process, affecting multiple layers of the skin to correct more severe skin conditions such as stubborn acne scars, age spots, and sun damage.

Matching Peel to Goals

What Is the Peel Procedure Like?

First, your provider gently cleanses your skin and looks closely at its texture and tone. Think of this as a clean slate, so the peel can work evenly and safely.

Next, the peel is brushed on in a smooth, controlled layer. You may feel mild warmth or tingling, similar to a light sun-kissed sensation. This usually fades within minutes as the solution settles in.

What Skin Concerns Does It Address?

Versatile Application

The Perfect Derma Peel is designed to target the everyday skin concerns you actually see in the mirror.

Dullness and lack of glow: Gently resurfaces tired-looking skin so your complexion appears brighter and more refreshed.

Uneven tone and hyperpigmentation: Softens dark spots and patchy areas for a more even-looking tone.

Melasma: Helps break up stubborn discoloration so skin looks clearer and more balanced.

Sun damage and age spots: Fades visible sun spots and weathered areas for a smoother, more luminous look.

Fine lines and texture: Refines roughness and softens fine lines so skin feels silkier and more polished.

Active acne and post-acne marks: Calms breakouts and lightens old blemish marks for a clearer, more even surface.

Enlarged pores: Minimizes the look of large pores, giving skin a smoother, more refined finish.

Ideal for Many, Personalized for You

Is the Perfect Derma Peel right for me?

The Perfect Derma Peel can work beautifully across many skin types and tones, but at Marvel, no two treatments are ever exactly the same.

During your consultation, your provider looks closely at your skin, your goals, and your lifestyle. We consider sensitivity, past treatments, and how much downtime you're comfortable with before recommending a plan. Some patients do best with a gentler approach, while others may benefit from pairing the peel with a broader skincare strategy.

Recovery & Aftercare

Healing That Leads to Glow

Most patients notice warmth, tightness, and mild redness right after treatment. Think of it like a light sunburn that settles within a day or two. Keep your routine calm and minimal so your skin can focus on healing.

Day 1–2: Fresh & Tight

• Skin may feel warm, tight, and slightly pink
• Mild swelling or itchiness is common and usually eases within 24–48 hours
• Cleanse gently twice daily; apply soothing moisturizer and SPF in the morning
• Avoid makeup the first day unless your provider advises otherwise
• Skip workouts, hot showers, and steam to prevent irritation

Days 3–5: Visible Peeling

• Peeling often starts around day 2–3, from fine flakes to light sheets
• Tightness and itchiness may increase as skin sheds
• Do not pick, rub, or peel—let skin lift off on its own
• Continue gentle cleansing, rich moisturizer, and strict sun protection
• A mineral sunscreen can help calm and protect sensitized skin

After Peeling: Protect Your Glow

• Most peeling settles by days 5–7, revealing smoother, brighter skin
• Makeup and light exercise can usually resume once peeling has mostly stopped
• Keep prioritizing SPF, hydration, and gentle antioxidant serums to maintain results
• Avoid harsh scrubs or active treatments until cleared by your provider
• Contact our team anytime if discomfort feels unusual or you have questions

Results & Maintenance

Most patients notice smoother, clearer skin within one treatment, with deeper changes in texture, tone, and clarity. For persistent concerns, such as stubborn acne scars or severe pigmentation, multiple treatments—typically two to four sessions spaced six weeks apart—can yield dramatic improvement.

To sustain results, plan yearly touch-ups and follow your clinician’s daily routine recommendations to maintain resilient skin.
