What Is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a skin care treatment designed to refine the texture of your skin through deep exfoliation and subsequent peeling. This dermatology procedure can make your face look younger and smoother.

Achieve Striking Results Without Plastic Surgery or Microdermabrasion
Cosmetic surgery is not always necessary to reduce the appearance of fine lines, just as microdermabrasion isn't necessary to improve scarring. If you have minimal wrinkles, sun damage, or acne scars, then you may be able to achieve noticeable results from peeling alone.
If you don't qualify for a chemical peel, we offer other nonsurgical dermatology procedures that can address your skin concerns.

You can improve the appearance of age spots, wrinkles, scars, and more with a chemical peel, but you may be overwhelmed by the options you have. During a consultation with Dr. Christopher R. Hove, you can review your options and decide which chemical peel will best address your skin concerns.
We apply an individual approach, giving each of our patients a treatment tailored to their unique goals. From your skin tone to your timeline, we will find something that works for you. If you're on the Main Line and you wish to reap the benefits of a chemical peel, fill out our contact form or call our Paoli office.
Dr. Hove offers glycolic acid and TCA chemical peels at his Paoli office. During your consultation, he will happily walk you through the benefits of each product.
Improve Your Acne With a Chemical Peel
Both teenagers and adults can experience acne and blackheads. While it is a common skin condition for people of all ages, it may still cause a degree of insecurity.
If you have tried other treatments like salicylic acid cleansers and over-the-counter peels but have had little success in reducing the appearance of your acne, blackheads, and scarring, you may benefit from a professional chemical peel.
Glycolic acid and TCA chemical peels work as a stronger exfoliant, which allows them to provide more dramatic results. If you opt for a deeper peel, you may also receive your desired results in fewer treatments.
How Long Will It Take to Heal After My Chemical Peel?
Though the length of your recovery period will depend on the depth of your chemical peel, your treatment area should heal within a week or two. During this time, you can expect redness, tightness, and flaking skin.
Because chemical peels can result in redness and flaking, be sure to request your appointment long before any big events to give yourself plenty of time to heal.

Choose Safer Treatment
While over-the-counter options like salicylic acid peels are cheaper than professional chemical peels, they can pose genuine dangers. You are likely not trained to administer peels, so if you use the wrong peel for your skin or apply it incorrectly, you may become seriously injured.
At Hove Center for Facial Plastic Surgery, your peel will be made of ingredients for your skin type and concerns, and it will be administered by a qualified individual like a licensed aesthetician. This is the best way to get safe and effective results.
