*What Chemical Peels Can Do for You

Chemical peels improve the appearance of facial skin by removing the damaged outer layers of skin and stimulating the production of new skin cells. Chemical peels can reduce the appearance of:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Uneven skin pigmentation
  • Sun damage
  • Facial blemishes or acne scarring

Peels come in a variety of strengths and can treat specific areas of the face, but the majority of Dr. Stein’s patients treat the whole face for best results.

*Procedure & Recovery

As part of his personal commitment to patients, Dr. Stein performs these treatments to ensure the very best care. Phenol peels are performed at our surgical center under heavy sedation.

Chemical peels in Raleigh, NC have varying degrees of recovery. For light to medium peels, you can expect moderate flaking and redness for four to seven days with full results after a couple of weeks. Medium peels may also cause minor swelling. For a deep peel, you will experience swelling, redness and significant peeling for one to two weeks with full results after two months.

*Complementary Procedures

Occasionally, Dr. Stein combines a chemical peel with laser resurfacing for different areas of the face depending on the patient’s individual needs. Chemical peels are not a substitute for a facelift or brow lift, but many of our patients add a peel to these procedures to maximize facial rejuvenation.

*Your Consultation with Dr. Stein

When considering a chemical peel, it’s important to choose a highly skilled doctor who understands that each patient requires a customized approach. In your consultation, Dr. Stein will discuss your goals and examine your skin to help you decide which peel is right for you. He specializes in a variety of chemical peels, including:

  • Phenol Peels – a deep peel that requires extensive specialized training to perform properly. Primarily, Dr. Stein uses it to treat coarse wrinkles and more significantly aged skin, but it also improves brown spots and uneven pigmentation. Dr. Stein specializes in this highly effective peel and has trained with leading experts to refine his skills in this area.
