How Much is a Chemical Peel?
Because chemical peels come in many varieties, it is difficult to provide an average cost. Factors that affect the cost of treatment with chemical peels include:
- Your location
- Your provider’s skill and experience
- The type of peel
- The number of peels needed
Chemical peels are often more affordable than many other treatment options that address similar concerns. You can usually expect a gentle or light peel to be the least expensive, while a deep peel will be the most expensive. However, some lighter peels have special ingredients or properties that affect the cost.

What Can Chemical Peels Treat?
We use chemical peels to address many different skin concerns. While they are effective for many issues, it is particularly beneficial for issues such as:
Acne and Acne Scarring
If you struggle with acne, chemical peels can be your best friend. They clear and tighten pores, eliminate the dead layers of skin that can cause blockages, and control excessive oil production. As a result, your skin looks clearer and smoother.
Chemical peels can also decrease the appearance of acne scars while preventing you from developing more. Most people who have chemical peels to control acne will see a gradual improvement in acne scars, or you can choose to treat them more directly.
Anti-Aging
By removing the layers of skin that hold age-related damage, chemical peels reveal a softer, more youthful appearance. This treatment can smooth wrinkles, fade age spots, and restore skin’s even texture. It can also bring fresh new skin cells to the surface to give you a healthy glow.
Sun Damage
Chemical peels are also an effective way to remove the layers of skin that carry your years of sun exposure. As a result, a series of treatments can dramatically improve signs of sun damage, including wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, and rough texture.
Pigmentation
Chemical peels are an excellent treatment for issues like post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation after acne, brown spots from aging or sun damage, and a variety of other pigmentation concerns. A series of chemical peels is one of the easiest ways to achieve a smooth, even skin tone with little to no downtime.
Collagen Loss
Your skin begins to lose collagen at a younger age than you may think, and it can lead to loss of firmness and the appearance of wrinkles. Chemical peels can trigger new collagen production for skin that looks and feels younger and more elastic. Adding collagen also improves textural issues like scars.
