ABOUT CHEMICAL PEELS

Cee Cee Aesthetics VI Peel for your Face is a prescription chemical peel that delivers a powerful formulation of medications specifically designed to lift pigment, remove sun damage, alleviate acne and scarring, and fight fine lines and wrinkles.

wHAT IT IS

Cee Cee Aesthetics VI Peels help to address the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while addressing uneven skin tone. This reveals new layers of bright, dewy skin. Safe for all skin types (Fitzpatrick I-VI), this painless, prescription facial peel addresses multiple conditions and will show peeling post treatment with real results.

how it works

On average, a chemical peel can take between 30-90 minutes, depending on the type of peel and number of layers being applied.  Depending on the strength of your peel, you may feel a warming sensation throughout the application.  You can expect little to no downtime for light peels, while medium and deep peels may require a few weeks to recover.  You should avoid the sun and any active skincare ingredients (Retinol, Vitamin C, etc.) until your skin is fully healed.
