Facials And Peels

During a facial or chemical peel treatment at Youthful You Aesthetics, you will receive a thorough consultation with one of our experienced aestheticians, who will assess your skin type and discuss your specific concerns. A facial typically includes deep cleansing, gentle exfoliation, extractions (if needed), and hydration to nourish and revitalize your skin, leaving it refreshed and glowing. For a chemical peel, a specialized acidic solution is applied to exfoliate the surface layers of the skin, stimulating cell turnover. You may experience a mild tingling sensation during the peel, which is normal and indicates the treatment is working. Afterward, your skin may feel sensitive or appear slightly red for a few days. As it heals, you may notice light peeling or flaking, revealing a smoother, more radiant complexion. Regardless of the treatment, proper post-care is essential—hydrating the skin, avoiding direct sun exposure, and applying SPF regularly will help maintain your results and protect your skin’s health.

Yes, chemical peels at Youthful You Aesthetics are designed to be safe for all skin types. Our skilled aestheticians tailor each facial peel treatment to accommodate a variety of skin conditions and tones. Before proceeding with a face peel, a comprehensive skin assessment is conducted to identify your skin type and any specific issues you may have, such as sensitivity, acne, or pigmentation. This ensures that the peel formula and its strength are precisely adjusted to your individual needs. While chemical peels are generally safe, some individuals may experience minor irritation or sensitivity, especially after their first treatment. To minimize these effects, we recommend following the pre- and post-care guidelines provided by our specialists. By choosing the right type of peel and adhering to the recommended skincare regimen, clients of all skin types can achieve beautiful, revitalizing results.

The frequency of facials and chemical peels depends on various factors, including your skin type, specific concerns, and the type of facial or peel used. At Youthful You Aesthetics, our aestheticians will assess your skin and recommend a personalized facial or peel schedule. For mild facials, such as our Glow or Brighten & Restore Facial, you can generally receive treatments every 4 to 6 weeks. These facials gently exfoliate the skin and are safe for more frequent application to maintain a radiant complexion. Medium-depth peels, like the Professional Peel, may be spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart, depending on your skin’s sensitivity and recovery rate. Deep peels or more intensive facial treatments are conducted less frequently, perhaps every few months, to allow ample time for the skin to fully heal and renew. Adapting the frequency of facials or peels to your unique skincare needs ensures that you achieve the best possible results without compromising your skin’s health and integrity.

Proper preparation is key to maximizing the benefits of a facial or chemical peel. At Youthful You Aesthetics, we provide clients with detailed pre-treatment guidelines to ensure optimal results. In the week leading up to your appointment, it’s advisable to avoid exfoliating products, retinoids, and treatments that might increase skin sensitivity, such as waxing or laser procedures. Maintaining a gentle skincare routine with hydrating cleansers and moisturizers will help in balancing your skin’s hydration levels. On the day of your facial or peel, arrive with a fresh, clean face and avoid applying makeup or sunscreen. If you’re on any specific medications or undergoing any treatments, communicate this to your aesthetician during the initial consultation. By following these preparation steps, you help ensure that your skin is in the best possible condition to receive the facial or peel, allowing for a successful treatment with optimal exfoliation and rejuvenation results.
