Deep clean and brighten with this revolutionary, pore-refining treatment. Skin is exfoliated with a custom blend light-medium depth peel to treat hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and acne scars for Face and Neck, then refined and polished using medical-grade microdermabrasion OR Dermaplane . The look of enlarged pores is reduced, while skin is replenished with a custom blend of highly effective serums, delivered to your skin via our advanced oxygenating machine. The ultimate multi-tasking facial, this treatment addresses excess buildup, breakouts and congestion, oversized pores, uneven skin tone and lackluster complexions.

Dermabrasion OR Dermaplaning
Extraction
Oxygen Therapy
Celluma LED Light Therapy

CORRECTIVE PEELS

CUSTOM PEEL ADD-ON ONLY $80

​
We offer a variety of targeted peels 
to address more serious skin concerns.

Our peels feature pure, high-grade ingredients such as glycolic acid, and next generation flower acids, such as Hibiscus Sabdariffa, which increases cellular regeneration and boosts hydration levels in the skin. Fruit enzymes are also used in conjunction with acids to treat many skin conditions such as hyperpigmentation, acne, sun damage and photo aging. They accomplish this by: 

  • Removing build-up of dead skin
  • Decreasing fine lines and wrinkles
  • Stimulating collagen and elastin
  • Improving skin texture, tone, and hydration
  • Reducing pore size
  • Helping to clear blemishes
  • Promote balanced oil production and healthier skin

The peels we offer do not penetrate below the epidermis (upper layers of the skin), and are not to be confused with medical or physician-strength peels that affect the dermis (lower layer). Peels can be done as a single treatment or in a series. The number of peels required for any given problem varies with each individual.

A peel consultation appointment with Renata our trained peel experts is required before booking a Mid-Depth or Deep Peel if you have not had a facial with her before. A thorough skin analysis will help us understand the state of your skin and how it reacts so we can determine which peel or treatment plan will help you best achieve your goals. We’ll go over the in’s and out’s of what to expect, how to prepare, and answer any questions you may have. We may also recommend pre-treatment home care at this time depending on the state of your skin. If you’d like to bypass the pre-peel consultation appointment, you can sign up for one of our facial treatments, which includes a complimentary consultation. No consultation is required for a light peel.

Post Peel

You will be given specific instructions to follow after your treatment. Post care is as important to successful results as the peel itself! Your practitioner will recommend a daily cleanser, moisturizer and sunblock as part of your post care. Additional specialty products can enhance and quicken results and may be recommended based on your individual goals

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a peel right for me?Maybe! You can schedule a peel consultation to receive a proper skin assessment, talk about your goals and discuss your options. If we don’t think you will benefit from a peel, we wont recommend it. A peel is not the best option for you if you’ve taken Accutane in the last six months, used a retinol or other topical prescriptions in the past two weeks, are pregnant or lactating, have diabetes, high blood pressure, lupus, heart disease, or if you have severe rosacea or sensitivity.

Is there anything I should avoid right after my peel?Yes! First and foremost, never pick! Picking can lead to post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Also you’ll need to avoid the sun for at least two full weeks. This is why peels are more popular in the late fall and winter. Avoid heat, saunas, steam rooms and vigorous exercise. Overstimulation and heat can flush the skin whereas sweat from exercise can create the perfect breeding ground for bacteria, causing breakouts to form. Avoid chlorinated pools, excessive alcohol consumption and smoking. Now is also not the best time to schedule a dental appointment. As an added precaution you will be asked to avoid exfoliants for a short period of time.

How soon can I expect results?Results vary with each individual and are determined by many different factors such as the depth of treatment and the current state of your skin, however, most notice improvements within one week.

Other considerations:Although peels can yield some wonderful results, they are not appropriate for everyone. Perhaps you could benefit from an alternative type of treatment or maybe you’re fabulous just the way you are! It’s also important to note that some skin conditions may require a more intensive treatment plan to achieve results. Additionally, undergoing a peel treatment requires diligence, patience and a willingness to carry out the proper post care instructions.



Yelp 12/7/2010
Renata is absolutely amazing!!! She is nothing short of a miracle worker for my skin. I always had very clear skin and then inexplicably started breaking out very badly when I turned 27. For two years, I tried every kind of product and had countless facials with no change. I even went to a dermatologist who proscribed antibiotics and about 5 different kinds of creams with no improvement. Within a week of my first facial by Renata, I noticed that I had less breakouts so I went back for more. After about three months, my skin was almost perfect and continues to improve tone and texture. If you have problem skin, I highly recommend the 
Skin Brightening Facial with LED Light Therapy.

Renata is a skin saver! I was suffering from a hormonal and cystic acne attack from changing medications, making changes to my diet and the stress of moving and 1 session with her got my skin back on track. We moved through a customized advanced facial of extractions, skin brightening, peels, microdermabrasion and LED treatment and my skin has never looked or felt better. She really is a skin whisperer. I love that she takes the time to explain what she's doing and the benefits of the various treatments. She starts every appointment with a consultative approach to what skin issues you're experiencing, your current skin care routine and what type of products you use and/or have worked for you in the past. I really appreciate her incredible attention to detail and the mastery of her profession.
