Chemical Peels in Chicago, IL

Uneven tone, fine lines, acne scars, and sun damage can all leave your skin looking less vibrant than you’d like.

While daily skincare routines are important, they often aren’t enough to address these deeper concerns. A professional chemical peel offers a powerful yet customizable way to refresh your complexion. This skin treatment gently removes damaged outer layers, revealing smoother, brighter skin underneath.

At Therahaus Wellness Med Spa in Chicago, we offer customized chemical peels tailored to your unique skin type and individual goals. Guided by Dr. Angeline Beltsos, a double-board-certified physician with over 30 years of medical experience, our treatments are performed with care and precision to ensure safe and noticeable results.

What Is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a noninvasive treatment that uses a specially formulated solution to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin. By encouraging new cell turnover, peels can improve tone, texture, and overall clarity.

Chemical peels vary in strength and formulation. Options typically include:

Superficial/light peels

Target the outermost layer for a gentle refresh, often with little to no downtime.

Medium peels

Reach deeper layers to address more noticeable imperfections such as acne scars or pigmentation.

Deep peels

Penetrate more deeply into the skin to address significant concerns, resulting in a longer recovery period.

During your consultation, our team will recommend the ideal peel for your skin, tailored to your specific concerns and goals.

Benefits of Chemical Peels

Chemical peels can address a wide range of concerns, making them a versatile option for many clients. Benefits may include:

Smoother skin texture
Brighter, more even tone
Reduced fine lines and wrinkles
Faded acne scars and pigmentation
Minimized sun damage and age spots
Improved clarity and radiance

Who Is a Candidate?

Chemical peels are suitable for most individuals seeking to enhance the appearance of their skin. You may be a good candidate if you struggle with:

Acne or acne scars
Fine lines and early signs of aging
Sun-damaged skin
Uneven tone or discoloration
Rough or dull skin

Some skin types may respond better to certain formulations, which is why a professional consultation is essential.

The Chemical Peel Process

A peel typically takes 30 to 45 minutes and involves three main steps:

Cleansing

Your skin is thoroughly cleansed to prepare for treatment.

Application

The chemical solution is carefully applied to the skin and left in place for a specified period. You may feel mild tingling or warmth during this step.

Neutralization and Care

The solution is neutralized, and soothing products are applied to support healing.

Depending on the type of peel, your skin may begin peeling lightly within a few days, revealing new, healthier skin underneath.

Recovery and Results

Downtime depends on the strength of the peel. Light peels may cause only mild redness for a day or two, while deeper peels can result in more visible peeling and require a longer recovery period. Regardless of strength, most clients see improved brightness and smoothness within a week, with continued benefits as new collagen develops.

To maintain results, many clients schedule chemical peels every few months as part of their skincare routine. Daily sunscreen use is also crucial after treatment to protect your skin and maintain the results.
