Light Chemical Peel

Light Chemical Peels at Columbus Facial Plastics in Columbus, Ohio results in healthier, glowing skin. Also called a Superficial Chemical Peel, we have several options that utilize different blends of chemical peeling agents. These combination products help balance the irritation and inflammation that were common with older single-agent peels, with the exfoliation and rejuvenation that we desire. The choice of product is individualized based on skin type and goals of treatment.

At Columbus Facial Plastics we look for consistency in our treatments and products with many different skin types so that we know what to expect with application. We want to help you feel confident in the downtime and results that you can expect with a given peel. In addition to our different products, we can use different strengths of application to help us achieve the desired results. This makes Light Chemical Peels a good option for immediate results with fresher, brighter skin. These peels can be used to get skin party, vacation, and photo ready.

Superficial (light) chemical agents can provide similar results to that of Microdermabrasion. Like Microdermabrasion, these Superficial Chemical Peels are most effective when done in a series of treatments.

Benefits

The immediate benefits include radiant and glowing skin, which is evident after one peel. A slight tightening of the skin, improvement in clarity, better color and smoother skin texture are also benefits you will notice after light peel treatments. There is no downtime with a Light Chemical Peel.  This is the gentlest of all chemical peels, ideal for someone with healthy tissue who wants to freshen and brighten the skin. This is not a peel that will change unwanted pigment and it is not strong enough to diminish lines and wrinkles. Light Chemical Peels are great for events, parties, photos or as a pre- or post-vacation option. Chemical Peels can be combined with Microdermabrasion or Facials to enhance skin health results. When done in a weekly series, we can see a reduction in oil production, pore clogging and congestion, and overall brightening in complexion. We consider this the beginning of your skin care journey. Light Chemical Peels also work well for older skin, and skin with sensitive or reactive skin type.

 

What are the effects of aging on my skin?

You can think of the structure of the top layer of skin like a brick wall. It is a barrier that helps keep moisture in and environmental toxins out. The cells that make up this outer layer of skin are like the bricks, and the intracellular matrix is like the mortar. But unlike a brick wall, the skin is a living organ and is undergoing constant renewal. New cells migrate toward the surface from the deeper layers, pushing the older dying cells to the top. Due to excess sun exposure, the environment and natural aging, the layers of dead skin cells begin to accumulate on the outer surface like a pile of bricks. This leads to a more rough, dull appearance, often with more splotchy pigmentation. Superficial treatments, like Light Chemical Peels, are helping us get back to a fresh wall by removing these dead skin cells, leaving our skin with a better appearance and stronger integrity.

What is skin rejuvenation and resurfacing?

Very simply, skin rejuvenation and resurfacing are treatment options that remove the outer layers of the skin to improve the texture, clarity, and overall appearance of your skin. Skin rejuvenation can be achieved in many ways. Think of these options like the rungs of a ladder. The bottom rung represents superficial treatments that remove the outermost layers of dead skin cells. As you move up the ladder of options, you penetrate deeper into the skin layers to effect more change. With more change comes a smoother, clearer, and more youthful appearance. However, deeper treatments are also accompanied by greater risks. It comes down to choices. Fortunately, today we have many options.

What can skin resurfacing treat?

There are various levels of Chemical Peels in Columbus, Ohio. Depending on if you choose  medium, or deep, these are some of conditions that can be treated with skin resurfacing that will not be improved with the Light Chemical Peel. :

  • Static Wrinkles: These wrinkles are visible and do not change in appearance with facial movement.
  • Dynamic Wrinkles: These are expression lines that may appear as folds when the skin is not moving and may deepen with facial movement or expression.
  • Pigmentation: Freckles, sunspots, melasma, or other darkened patches of skin result mainly from sun exposure.
  • Scars: As a result of acne or injury to the skin, scars may be rolling (a wavy appearance to the skin), pitted, discolored, or have raised borders.
  • Vascular Conditions: Blood vessels visible on the surface of the skin, vascular lesions that appear as tiny blood-filled blisters, or even a constant flush of facial redness.
  • Loss of Skin Tone: Weakening of the supportive skin structures (collagen and elastin fibers) that result in a loss of skin firmness or the development of cellulite.

How can skin care products help me?

Medical-grade skin care products, whether used as an adjunct to other procedures or as an initial step in improving skin health, help to improve your skin’s appearance and to rejuvenate healthy skin cells. Gels, creams, serums and exfoliators available for purchase have different purposes. It is important to use the regimen that is right for your skin type and lifestyle. We will help you define that regimen as part of your skin care consultation and treatment plan.

Welcome to Columbus Facial Plastics at The Sullivan Centre.

We believe that healthy, youthful renewal begins with science. Founded in 1996 by Dr. Michael and Christine Sullivan, our practice was the first of its kind in central Ohio. For 20+ years, The Sullivan Centre has led the way in advancing the science of beauty and providing only the safest and most effective surgical and non-surgical treatments for our patients.

I met Dr. Mike, Dr. Chris and the rest of the team in 2014 and have had the incredible opportunity to train and collaborate with Dr. Mike for the past five years. I officially joined The Sullivan Centre in September 2019 and could not be more excited to lead this exceptional practice into the future.

My goal is to provide you with the education and expertise needed to help you feel confident with your decision to pursue surgical or non-surgical treatment. I am proud to be a part of a highly skilled team that delivers personalized care so that you feel comfortable through every step of the process.

In addition to practicing exclusively in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, I also serve as the medical director for our non-surgical services. We are fortunate to have two of the most experienced aesthetic providers in central Ohio in their respective fields. Dina Maynard and Nancy Cotterman, RN have been caring for patients at The Sullivan Centre for a combined 25 years! You won’t find anyone with more training or skill.

Spend as much time as you need learning more about our team and the services we provide. We are passionate about what we do, and we would love to see you soon.
