Chemical Peel Treatments in Boston, MA
Our skin operates on an average, 27-day cycle of birth, death, and renewal. New skin grows to the surface, protects us for roughly a month, then grays and dies while newer skin rises up to take its place.
But as we age, this cycle can hit snags and the buildup of dead skin and debris can occur, preventing the healthy growth of newer, glowing skin. At Regeneris Medspa & Cosmetic Surgery, our chemical peels can clear the way by cleansing, exfoliating, and hydrating the skin. Here’s how chemical peels contribute to a youthful appearance.
How Chemical Peels Work
Our skin is made up of three distinct layers—the epidermis (top), dermis (middle), and hypodermis (bottom). While the average facial addresses the top layer, additional measures are needed to probe deeper and clean more comprehensively, encouraging the healthier growth of new skin.
Chemical peels penetrate deep into the skin where a mixture of chemicals, hydrating agents, and exfoliating agents can do the most good. By clearing away harmful oils and toxins, chemical peels also clean out pores and have been shown to reduce the frequency and intensity of acne outbreaks. No matter your reason for seeking a chemical peel, the procedure can work wonders by encouraging greater production of natural healing agents and removing layers of dead skin so that new skin grows back brighter and better than before.
The Benefits of Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are a one-stop facial service ideal for improving numerous skin aspects and conditions. Because chemical peels are designed to be comprehensive, quick, and effective, they can address new and old blemishes while also improving overall health and appearance.

Are You Eligible for Chemical Peels?
While chemical peels are widely considered safe and administered frequently throughout the country and world, some specific conditions may contribute to diminished results. If you have a history of unusual scarring, severely discolored scars, or are currently taking powerful medications for certain skin conditions, chemical peels may not be as beneficial. During your consultation, Regeneris Medspa & Cosmetic Surgery will speak with you about your medical history to determine your candidacy.
Chemical Peels FAQs
Chemical peels are 100% safe for suitable candidates without certain skin-related issues in their medical histories. Chemical peels promote healthier skin through deep cleaning, hydrating, and exfoliation. We’ll discuss your individual candidacy during your consultation at Regeneris Medspa & Cosmetic Surgery.
Chemical peels come in all strengths and solutions to meet patient needs. Accordingly, the benefits of your chemical peel will depend on the intensity. Milder chemical peels can last up to a month. Stronger peels result in visible improvements for an average of 2 months. For the best benefits, a number of chemical peels may be required to maximize results, but you’ll see and feel a difference directly after your first appointment.
The oils, toxins, and dead skin cells that contribute to an aging appearance can also throw fuel on the fire for strong, frequent, and painful acne outbreaks. By clearing away the food that acne outbreaks rely upon, you can make a real difference in your day-to-day quality of life. We’ll speak with you about your unique acne history before recommending chemical peels.
