Looking to refresh your skin and improve its overall appearance? Facial peels are a nonsurgical cosmetic treatment that can help soften fine lines, reduce the appearance of sun spots, and improve uneven skin tone and texture.
At The Eye Care Center, we offer facial peels for patients around Canandaigua, Geneva, Macedon, and surrounding Rochester-area and Finger Lakes communities.
What Skin Concerns Can Facial Peels Help Treat?
Facial peels, also called chemical peels, use a specialized solution to exfoliate the outer layers of skin and encourage skin renewal. They're commonly used to address cosmetic concerns such as:
- Fine lines: Help soften the appearance of mild facial wrinkles.
- Sun spots: Reduce the appearance of certain dark spots and sun-related discoloration.
- Uneven skin tone: Improve the appearance of patchy or discolored skin.
- Rough skin texture: Help smooth the skin's surface by removing dead skin cells.
- Dull-looking skin: Promote a brighter, more refreshed appearance.
Not every facial peel is appropriate for every skin type or concern. Our cosmetic team can help determine whether a peel is right for your skin and treatment goals.

What to Expect From a Facial Peel Treatment
Facial peels are performed in-office, and the treatment process can vary depending on the type and strength of peel recommended for your skin. Here's a general overview of what to expect:
Skin Consultation
We'll discuss your skin concerns, medical history, and cosmetic goals to determine whether a facial peel is appropriate for you.
Facial Peel Application
Your skin is cleansed before the peel solution is applied. Treatment is generally brief, although appointment length depends on the type of peel.
Recovery & Results
You may experience temporary redness, dryness, or peeling as your skin heals. We'll explain how to care for your skin afterward and when you can resume your usual routine.
How Often Can You Get a Facial Peel?
The recommended frequency depends on the type of peel, your skin's response, and your treatment goals. Some patients benefit from a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart, while others may only need occasional treatments. Our team can recommend an appropriate schedule based on your skin's needs.
What Are the Benefits of Facial Peels?
Facial peels offer several potential benefits for patients who want to improve their skin's appearance without surgery, including:
- Smoother skin texture: Exfoliation helps remove dead surface cells and improve the feel of your skin.
- More even skin tone: Certain peels can help reduce the appearance of discoloration and sun spots.
- Softer fine lines: Facial peels may help make mild wrinkles less noticeable.
- Brighter-looking skin: Removing dull surface cells can leave your complexion looking more refreshed.
- Nonsurgical treatment: Facial peels don't require surgery, although recovery time varies depending on the strength of the treatment.
