  Medical Glycolic Peels
   
  What Are Glycolic Peels?
Glycolic peels are acids used to exfoliate the skin. These peels have been shown to improve fine lines and wrinkles, smoothen mild acne scars, reduce the appearance of light brown spots, and give a refreshing glow to your skin. After the peel, skin will be red and you will have a sunburn feeling, but you are able to return to normal activities. It is recommended that make-up not be applied for 24-48 hours. For information on gentler peels, visit our Comprehensive Skin Care section.
 
What Is Involved? Will I Need Further Treatments?
Peels begin at a strength of 30% glycolic and increase in percentage over the course of your treatment up to 70%. The physician assistant will determine the right program for your skin. Generally, a series of three to six treatments are required for optimum results. These are spaced two to three weeks apart. The results of the peel are quickly evident.
   
  How Long Does the Procedure Take?
 
The medical peel process takes about 15-20 minutes. Although the results are usually not permanent, maintained improvement can be accomplished by periodic re-treatments.
   
  How Do I Get Started?
 
Dr. Goldberg and his staff will be happy to discuss this procedure with you. Please feel free to call for a private consultation or Schedule an appointment online @ one of our offices.
