What the peel does
TCA in a 10%–30% non‑buffered formulation is used for medium‑to‑deeper chemical exfoliation on the face and body. The concentration and number of layers determine depth: clinicians apply between one and five layers during a session. Visible peeling commonly begins three to fourteen days after application; this timing is part of how the treatment achieves resurfacing without other destructive methods.
This peel is intended for deeper wrinkles, dark pigmentation, post‑acne marks and serious blemishes rather than for very sensitive skin. Because depth is adjustable by concentration and layering, clinicians select a plan based on your skin condition, tolerance and treatment goals. Multiple sessions spaced appropriately allow gradual improvement while managing recovery between visits.
Planning sessions and timing
A treatment plan begins with a skin assessment to decide concentration and the number of layers, which ranges from one to five. Layers may be repeated once every two to seven weeks depending on skin sensitivity, overall condition and peel strength. We require skin preparation before treatment and will outline a schedule that spaces sessions for safe healing and effective results.
Preparation is essential: all complexions must be prepped two to four weeks before application using a pre‑peel kit sold separately, and post‑treatment products must be used afterward. At The Healthy Glow Studio in Mascotte we also consider local lifestyle: clients often book around commuting schedules, weekend plans or Montverde Academy events, so timing and follow‑up are coordinated for convenience.
Aftercare and appointment details
Aftercare adherence shapes recovery. You will receive specific post‑treatment products and instructions; following them helps manage the peeling phase that typically starts days later. Body peels can be performed on arms, hands, legs, thighs, back, abdomen, feet and underarms, and price varies with peel concentration, layers applied and the body part treated.
Expect a focused appointment that lasts about 45 minutes. During your visit the clinician assesses your skin, applies the appropriate number of layers, and reviews aftercare. Starting price is listed at $115, with final cost depending on concentration, layers and treated area. Sensitive skin is not recommended for this protocol and will be evaluated carefully during consultation.
