Advanced Chemical Peels

Get More Even Pigmentation and Brighter, Smoother Skin in Chicago and Winnetka

The Whole Beauty® Institute offers a customized selection of advanced chemical peels for Chicago-area women and men seeking skin rejuvenation. Peels work by removing the dull layer of dead cells, oil, and debris that clog pores and make the skin look older than it really is. A solution of a specific strength is applied directly to the skin and left on for a specific amount of time, then removed. This causes the epidermis to gradually flake away, encouraging cell turnover and revealing the younger layer beneath.

The latest generation of chemical peels offered by our team at the Whole Beauty® Institute offers many advantages over earlier types of peels. They require much less downtime, they are specifically targeted to the condition that is of concern to you, and they are gentler. Maintenance kits are also available to help patients preserve their advanced chemical peel results and get more even skin at home. Each kit targets and treats specific skin conditions and needs.

Maximum Brightening Peel

The Maximum Brightening Peel evens out pigmentation and smooths skin tone.

Ultra Silk Brightening Peel

This chemical peel also evens out pigmentation, as well as brightens and smooths skin tone.

Satin Peel

The Satin Peel refreshes stressed skin and minimizes the appearance of pores, fine lines, and wrinkles.
