Indianapolis Chemical Peels
Chegar Facial Plastic Surgery is proud to offer a full line of PCA Skin® treatments that are customized to your individual skin care needs. These professional treatment protocols focus on breaking through the stratum corneum (the outer layer of the skin) to nourish the underlying dermis, as opposed to simply stripping away the surface. PCA Skin’s progressive approach leads to dramatic results without unnecessary and unwanted trauma or downtime.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Much Does Chemical Peel Cost?
The cost of chemical peel will depend on several factors. The number of sessions will influence the final price, as will the severity of the cosmetic issues being addressed.
Can Chemical Peels Be Customized Based on Individual Skin Types and Concerns?
Yes, chemical peels can be highly customized to suit individual skin types and concerns. The concentration and type of acid used can be adjusted to cater to various issues, from sensitive skin to more resilient types, targeting specific problems such as acne, hyperpigmentation, and signs of aging.
How Do Chemical Peels Compare With Laser Treatments in Terms of Efficacy and Recovery?
Chemical peels and laser treatments both offer effective solutions for skin rejuvenation but have different downtimes. Chemical peels typically require less recovery time, depending on the depth of the treatments.
Light chemical peels will peel for one week. Medium chemical peels will need two weeks of downtime before you can resume exercise, using makeup, engaging in water activities, and IPL. A deep chemical peel requires three weeks of downtime before you can go back to working out, using makeup, going to saunas, and getting an IPL.
Laser treatments might offer more targeted results for certain conditions but often come with a longer recovery period and a higher price tag. Initial recovery for a laser treatment is one week, but full recovery can be expected after a month.
What Pre-treatment Assessments or Preparations Are Necessary Before Undergoing a Chemical Peel?
Pre-treatment assessments for a chemical peel involve a thorough evaluation of the individual’s skin type, condition, and medical history. Preparations may include discontinuing the use of blood thinning medications, NSAIDs, or herbal supplements. Skincare products that could affect the skin’s sensitivity or the peel’s outcome, such as retinoids and products containing salicylic acid, should also be paused a week before a chemical peel.
How Do Chemical Peels Address Specific Skin Conditions Such as Acne, Hyperpigmentation, or Aging Signs?
Chemical peels help in reducing acne by unclogging pores and decreasing oil production. For hyperpigmentation, they remove the outer layer of skin to lighten dark spots. As for aging signs, peels stimulate collagen production, improving skin texture and reducing the appearance of fine lines.
Can Chemical Peels Be Safely Performed in Combination With Other Aesthetic Treatments?
Yes, chemical peels can be safely combined with other aesthetic treatments like dermaplaning, dermabrasion, or laser resurfacing. This customized treatment plan enhances overall results. The key is timing and professional guidance to ensure that the skin is not overly stressed, allowing for safe and effective treatment combinations.
Are There Any Long-Term Skin Health Benefits Associated With Regular Chemical Peel Treatments?
Regular chemical peel treatments can offer significant long-term benefits for skin health, including improved texture, tone, and clarity. By promoting cell turnover and collagen production, chemical peels can help maintain youthful, healthy-looking skin over time.
