Sometimes your skin needs more than a good exfoliation.

At EVOLV Plastic Surgery & Medical Aesthetics in Toledo, our professional chemical peels are designed to remove built-up, damaged surface cells and encourage fresh, healthier-looking skin to come through.

From a light refresh to more advanced correction, we offer different types and depths of peels that can be customized based on your skin, concerns, lifestyle, and the amount of downtime that works for you.

Chemical peels can help improve the appearance of sun damage, uneven pigmentation, acne and acne scarring, fine lines, rough texture, and dullness while revealing smoother, brighter, more even-looking skin underneath.

Not sure which peel you need? You don’t have to be. Your EVOLV provider will evaluate your skin and recommend the treatment that makes the most sense for where your skin is now and where you want it to go.

Consider it a fresh start for your skin.

THE PROCEDURE

What It Is

Your at-home exfoliant is great. Sometimes your skin needs a little more.

Professional chemical peels use carefully selected exfoliating ingredients to remove built-up surface cells and encourage fresh, healthier-looking skin to come through.

Depending on the peel selected, treatment can help improve the appearance of sun damage, uneven pigmentation, acne, fine lines, rough texture, and dullness while leaving skin looking smoother, brighter, and more even.

Peels can also be incorporated into a larger skin plan alongside other aesthetic treatments and a consistent at-home skincare routine.

The key is choosing the right peel. Your EVOLV provider will customize your treatment based on your skin, concerns, goals, and desired downtime.

Fresh skin, strategically.

How It Works

Not every peel is created equal, and that’s kind of the point.

Your treatment starts with freshly cleansed, prepped skin. From there, your EVOLV provider will apply a carefully selected peel based on your skin, concerns, and the level of exfoliation we’re looking to achieve.

Different ingredients, including acids like glycolic, salicylic, and lactic acid, work at different depths and target different concerns. Depending on your treatment, the peel may be neutralized before finishing with products selected to soothe, protect, and support your skin.

Some peels offer a lighter refresh with minimal downtime, while others go deeper for more advanced correction.

We’ll choose the peel. Your skin gets the fresh start.

What It Treats

  • What Are We Peeling For?

    Honestly, quite a bit.

    Depending on the type and depth of peel selected, chemical peels can help improve the appearance of:

    • Fine lines and visible signs of aging
    • Acne and congestion
    • Post-acne marks and acne scarring
    • Brown spots and uneven pigmentation
    • Rough or uneven texture
    • Enlarged pores
    • Dull, lackluster skin

    Some patients come in wanting to tackle one specific concern. Others just want their skin to look smoother, brighter, and more refreshed overall.

    And while you can absolutely see benefits from a single peel, a series of treatments or ongoing maintenance may be recommended based on your skin and goals.

    One peel or a whole skin plan. We’ll figure out what makes sense for you.

Benefits

  • Plays Well With Others
    Chemical peels can be incorporated into a larger aesthetic plan alongside other surgical and non-surgical treatments to support smoother, healthier-looking skin and complement your overall results.

    Out With the Old
    By exfoliating built-up surface cells, chemical peels support natural skin renewal and reveal a brighter, smoother, more even-looking complexion underneath.

    The Right Peel Matters
    Your EVOLV provider will select your peel based on your skin, concerns, goals, and desired downtime. Different ingredients and peel depths give us plenty of ways to customize your treatment without taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

    No Peeling Required
    Yes, really. Visible peeling isn’t the measure of a successful chemical peel. Superficial options can refresh tone, texture, and brightness with little to no visible flaking or downtime.

    Your skin can get the message without shedding the evidence.

OVERVIEW

Treatment Time

30 minutes

Treatment time is approximately 30 minutes; During this session, we work carefully to ensure optimal results tailored to your skin’s needs. Our team uses precise techniques to provide a safe and effective treatment experience, making the most of this quick yet impactful procedure.

Recovery Time

0 – 7 days

Depending on the strength of the treatment, recovery time could be zero to 5-7 days; For lighter peels, you may be able to resume regular activities immediately. However, stronger peels might require a few days for your skin to heal fully. It’s important to follow aftercare instructions closely, as they play a significant role in ensuring a smooth recovery and enhancing the overall results.

Side Effects

Possible flakiness, peeling and red skin

These side effects are normal and temporary, signaling that your skin is shedding old layers to reveal a fresh, rejuvenated complexion. If you experience any discomfort, we recommend using gentle, hydrating products and protecting your skin from sun exposure to promote healing.

Anesthetic Type

None

Typically, no anesthetic is needed. Skin prep is necessary for deeper peels; This preparation is essential to ensure your skin is clean and prepped for optimal absorption of the products used in subsequent steps. A gentle cleanse also reduces the risk of any irritation, setting the foundation for a safe and effective peel.

Your Safety Matters.

At EVOLV Plastic Surgery & Medical Aesthetics, we believe that a highly educated and experienced physician or provider is paramount in providing safe and consistent treatments to our patients.

That is why we promote ongoing education and are committed to completing in-depth training on each treatment and injectable product to ensure safe and effective application and outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there any discomfort associated with this procedure?

Dependent on the peel that you select, your discomfort will range from minimal to mild.

How do chemical peels improve skin texture and tone?

The exfoliation process increases cell turnover, removing dull layers and revealing fresher, healthier skin.

What types of chemical peels are available, and how do they differ?

Chemical peels come in three types based on their depth of exfoliation—superficial, medium, and deep.

Superficial Peels target the outermost layer of skin and are ideal for improving texture, pigmentation, and overall skin health. These peels are non-invasive and typically performed by a licensed aesthetician.

Medium-Depth Peels penetrate deeper into the skin to address moderate concerns like uneven tone and fine lines. These are also often done in-office by trained professionals.

Deep Peels are more intensive and must be performed by an experienced physician. They are effective for addressing deeper wrinkles, acne scars, and skin laxity. Additionally, they may reduce skin cancer risks in individuals with significant sun damage.

Each option caters to unique skin needs, helping you achieve healthier, radiant skin.

How often should I get a chemical peel for the best results?

For the best outcomes, treatments can be scheduled every 4–6 weeks, depending on your skin’s needs.

What should I do to prepare my skin before a chemical peel?

Follow any pre-peel instructions provided by our care team, including avoiding exfoliants or sun exposure.

Will I peel?

You will only peel with moderate to the more aggressive peels. At EVOLV, we offer a wide range of chemical peels that allow our providers to customize your treatment depending on your goals and concerns.

What aftercare is recommended following a chemical peel?

Hydrate, use sunscreen, and avoid harsh products post-treatment to promote healing and protect your glowing results.

Is there any downtime associated with chemical peels?

Downtime can range from none to 1 week of social downtime depending on the type of chemical peel utilized, the quality of preparation and each patient’s skin type.

Who is not a candidate for chemical peels?

Anyone who has had recent sun exposure, open wounds, inflammatory or disease compromised skin, is taking Accutane, pregnant, or breastfeeding.

My experience with all the staff at EVOLV, including Dr. Barone, the coordinator Sandy, nurses Angie and Kayle, and Amy, has been amazing, whether I’m in person or over the phone speaking to the receptionists. I’m only 5 days post-op, and I’m very satisfied with my results so far.
