At GaliDerm Aesthetics in Royal Palm Beach, FL, one of our most popular skincare treatments are Chemical Peels, a customizable and effective way to exfoliate and rejuvenate your skin. Whether you are looking to address signs of aging, improve skin texture, or achieve a brighter, more even complexion, our customized Chemical Peels provide the perfect solution.

What Are Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels are a proven cosmetic treatment used to rejuvenate and resurface the skin. During the procedure, a specialized chemical solution is applied to the skin to exfoliate the outermost layers, encouraging cellular turnover and promoting the growth of new, healthier skin. As the old skin peels away, the result is a smoother, clearer, and more radiant complexion.
Chemical peels can be customized based on your skin’s unique needs and goals. They are commonly used to treat concerns such as fine wrinkling, uneven tone or texture, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and visible signs of sun damage.
Types of Chemical Peels
There are three main types of chemical peels, each offering different levels of intensity and results:
- Light Chemical Peel: Also known as a superficial peel, this type targets the outermost layer of skin and is ideal for refreshing dull skin, improving mild discoloration, and addressing early signs of aging. Light peels require little to no downtime and are safe for most skin coloring and skin types.
- Medium Chemical Peel: This peel penetrates deeper into the skin, targeting the outer and middle layers. It’s effective for treating fine wrinkling, moderate sun damage, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation. Recovery may take several days, during which patients should avoid sun exposure and follow a gentle skincare routine.
- Deep Chemical Peel: The most intensive option, a deep chemical peel reaches the lower layers of the dermis. It’s used for more advanced concerns such as deeper wrinkles, severe sun damage, and pronounced scarring. While results can be dramatic, this type of peel requires a longer recovery period and should only be performed by experienced providers.
At Galiderm Aesthetics, we carefully evaluate your skin and recommend the most appropriate peel for your goals, skin condition, and lifestyle. Whether you’re seeking a quick skin refresh or deeper rejuvenation, our expert team ensures your treatment is both safe and effective.

Benefits of Chemical Peels
Chemical Peels offer a wide range of benefits, making them a versatile and effective treatment for achieving healthier, more radiant skin:
Exfoliation for Smoother Skin
One of the primary benefits of Chemical Peels is their ability to exfoliate the skin, removing dead cells that can cause a dull, tired appearance. By shedding these outer layers, Chemical Peels help to reveal the healthy skin beneath, leading to a more radiant and youthful complexion.
Reduction of Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Chemical Peels can be an effective treatment for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. By promoting the production of new skin cells and collagen, peels help to smooth out the skin’s surface, diminishing the signs of aging and leaving your skin looking more rejuvenated.
Improvement of Skin Tone and Texture
Chemical Peels are beneficial for those looking to improve uneven skin tone and texture. Whether you are dealing with sun damage, hyperpigmentation, or acne scars, a customized Chemical Peel can help to fade these imperfections, resulting in a more even, balanced complexion.
Acne Treatment and Prevention
For individuals struggling with acne, Chemical Peels can be an effective treatment option. The exfoliation process helps to clear clogged pores, reduce inflammation, and prevent future breakouts. Additionally, Chemical Peels can reduce the appearance of acne scars, improving the overall texture and clarity of your skin.
