How Chemical Peel Works

Chemical peels are a professional exfoliation treatment that uses carefully selected solutions to remove dull, damaged skin cells and reveal fresher, healthier layers beneath. At Zona Med Spa in Scottsdale, our Certified Estheticians offer a range of advanced peels so we can customize every session to your unique skin concerns, goals, and tolerance level. We offer the following options:

  • SkinCeuticals Micropeel 30 (30% glycolic acid): Excellent for addressing photoaging, fine lines, wrinkles, and dullness. This peel promotes smoother texture and a brighter complexion.
  • SkinCeuticals Micropeel Plus 30 (30% salicylic acid): Ideal for acne-prone skin, scarring, congestion, and hyperpigmentation. It helps unclog pores and reduce breakouts while improving overall clarity.
  • VI Peel: A powerful peel combining TCA, salicylic acid, retinoic acid, phenol, and vitamin C. It effectively targets stubborn pigmentation, acne scars, fine lines, and uneven tone. The results are noticeable and peeling easily managed.
  • BioRePeelCl3: This no-downtime, bio-stimulating peel is 35% TCA with a rich blend of amino acids, vitamins, and antioxidants. It delivers immediately improved skin radiance, texture, and collagen stimulation with virtually no visible peeling. This option is ideal for busy patients who want glowing results without interruption to their schedule.

During your treatment, your esthetician will begin with a gentle cleanse, followed by steam and extractions if needed. The customized peel is then applied (you may feel a mild tingling or warming sensation), and the session is completed with soothing, hydrating products and broad-spectrum sunscreen. Most peels take about 30-45 minutes.

Results are visible almost immediately after the skin renews, with continued improvement over the following weeks as collagen production increases. Many patients choose a series multiple treatments for optimal, long-lasting radiance.

Chemical Peel Cost

At Zona Med Spa, pricing is customized based on the peel type and areas treated. It all depends on factors like skin goals and number of sessions (typically 3–6).

For a personalized plan, we recommend a consultation with our team to choose the best option for your skin goals and budget.

Pre & Post Care

Before your appointment, inform us if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, have allergies, prone to cold sores, or are using medications like Retin-A, Accutane, or antibiotics. Always consult with your primary doctor before making any changes. 

After treatment, avoid hot water, exercise, or retinols/acids for up to 5 days. Avoid picking at your skin, sun exposure, and wear SPF 30+ daily for 14 days.
