The Fundamentals
A chemical peel is a professional skin-resurfacing treatment that uses a carefully selected solution to loosen damaged surface cells and encourage controlled renewal. The depth of treatment may range from superficial to deep, depending on the concern, skin history, and recovery window.
Rather than choosing a formula by name alone, a safe treatment plan begins with skin tone, sensitivity, pigment behavior, previous procedures, current products, and the degree of correction desired.
Visible Renewal
Chemical peels can improve dullness, rough texture, uneven tone, visible sun damage, congestion, post-acne marks, fine lines, and the appearance of enlarged pores. Lighter treatments support regular maintenance, while carefully selected medium-depth treatments can create more substantial correction.
Results depend on treatment depth, skin condition, adherence to aftercare, and sun protection. A consultation determines whether a peel is appropriate or whether another resurfacing approach would better serve the skin.
Depth Before Brand
The right chemical peel is selected by depth, concern, recovery tolerance, and skin behavior—not by trend. Brand-specific ingredients, pricing, and detailed recovery timelines belong on each treatment’s dedicated page.
Superficial peels work within the outermost layers of the skin to refresh tone and texture with a shorter recovery period. They are often considered for regular maintenance, event preparation, mild congestion, or early visible sun damage.
Medium-depth peels reach farther into the skin to address more established discoloration, post-acne marks, uneven texture, and visible photoaging. They typically involve a defined period of peeling and require disciplined aftercare and sun avoidance.
Sensitive skin and richly melanated skin can be treated, but depth, preparation, contact time, and aftercare must be chosen carefully to reduce irritation and post-inflammatory pigment change. The light and medium categories above provide the framework; the final selection follows an individual skin assessment.
| Depth | Typical Goals | Recovery Pattern | Clinical Considerations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Light | Glow, maintenance, mild texture, superficial discoloration | Little to light visible flaking | Often suited to a series and routine maintenance |
| Medium | Sun damage, acne marks, more established pigment and texture | More visible peeling and a defined recovery window | Requires careful preparation, aftercare, and sun protection |
| Deep | Advanced photoaging and deeper textural change | Extended healing and medical follow-up | Not appropriate for every skin type; requires physician evaluation |
The Ascension III Protocol™
BWA has refined the Beverly Hills Chemical Peel treatment. We feature the industry’s most effective chemical peel brands: the Vi Peel, SkinMedica Peels, and BioRepeel. These advanced chemical peel formulations are designed to refine and renew the skin at a cellular level, gently dissolving damaged surface layers to unveil a smoother, more luminous complexion.
At our Beverly Hills med spa, the true distinction lies in the methodology. We have moved beyond the transactional “pick-a-peel” model to introduce the Ascension III Protocol™—a proprietary, MD-developed sequencing designed to deliver Supreme results through clinical intention. This is fundamentally different from how other medspas use chemical peels to address fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and uneven tone.
Assess & Precondition. We begin with a deep skin analysis to assess your Fitzpatrick type, risk history, and current conditions. We determine if preconditioning—such as pigment suppression or barrier prep—is required to prime your cells for the chemical acid blend.
The Precision Peel. The Chemical Peel solution is applied with medical precision. Our practitioners utilize a specific layering strategy to ensure the acids penetrate evenly. Potentially followed by the growth factors to maximize cellular enhancement.
Regenerate & Support. True renewal occurs post-treatment. We provide expert guidance and after-hours support to manage your predictable recovery curve, ensuring the transition from exfoliation to “rebirth” is flawless.
Most places sell: “Pick a peel → Apply → Done.”
Our approach is: “Analyze → Architect → Ascend”

Surface to Structure
Each peel we offer is chosen for its unique ability to address signs of aging like dark spots, fine lines and wrinkles; skin discoloration and hyperpigmentation; sun damaged skin; uneven texture and complexion; and advanced skin conditions like rosacea and melasma.
Advanced peels promote cellular renewal and exfoliation, creating a noticeably smoother, softer feel and a more uniformly even-toned complexion.
By stimulating the production of foundational proteins, our clinically curated peel collection helps to significantly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for a more youthful look.
Chemical resurfacing is highly effective in managing acne-prone skin, calming inflammation, and reducing the visibility of acne scars and post-inflammatory marks through deep exfoliation.
The treatment actively clears debris from the pores, leading to a visible reduction in the size of enlarged pores and a more refined skin texture overall.
Specific ingredients in our peel solutions help to enhance the skin’s moisture barrier, improving its overall hydration, plumpness, and suppleness.
Peels actively lift surface discoloration to reduce sun damage, melasma, and stubborn hyperpigmentation, resulting in a significantly brighter, more uniform skin tone.
Unlike more invasive procedures, specific light peels, such as the BioRePeel, require minimal to no recovery period, allowing individuals to return to their daily activities immediately.
When performed and overseen by a qualified medical professional, our chemical peel treatments are safely customized for a range of skin tones and sensitivity levels.
Most treatments are typically completed in under an hour, making them a convenient option for maintaining radiant skin even with the busiest schedule.
With successive treatments in a prescribed series, the results become cumulative and more pronounced, leading to enduring structural improvement and long-lasting skin clarity.
Personalized Planning
A good candidate may want to improve dullness, rough texture, uneven pigment, sun damage, congestion, post-acne marks, or fine lines and can follow the required preparation and aftercare. Candidacy depends on skin type, sensitivity, pigment history, active conditions, medications, recent sun exposure, and healing behavior.
Pregnancy, active infection, open skin, certain medications, recent procedures, or a history of abnormal scarring may change timing or make another treatment more appropriate. Your consultation is the place to review these factors honestly.
The Treatment Journey
Your skin, goals, medical history, pigment response, and acceptable recovery window are reviewed.
Your practitioner may adjust active skincare, address sun exposure, or recommend preconditioning before treatment.
The skin is cleansed and the selected solution is applied in a controlled manner. Warmth or stinging may occur.
Light peels typically cause little to mild flaking; medium-depth peels typically produce more visible peeling and sensitivity.
Brighter, smoother-looking skin emerges as renewal progresses. A planned series may build more cumulative improvement.
Chemical Peel FAQs
A chemical peel is a skin-resurfacing treatment where a solution is applied to exfoliate the outer layers of skin. This process reveals fresher, smoother skin underneath and helps improve tone, texture, and radiance.
The cost of a chemical peel can range from $150 to $600 per session, depending on the type of peel (light, medium, or deep) and the provider’s expertise.
A chemical peel helps reduce fine lines, sun damage, acne scars, uneven tone, and rough texture by stimulating cell turnover and collagen production.
Most people get chemical peels on the face, neck, or chest, but they can also be used on the hands and back to treat acne, discoloration, or rough skin.
Results typically last 1–2 months for light peels, several months for medium peels, and years for deep peels, though ongoing treatments and good skincare help maintain results.
Most light and medium peels cause only mild stinging or warmth during the treatment. Deep peels may feel more intense and usually require numbing or sedation.
Yes, when performed by a licensed professional. Light and medium peels have minimal risks, while deeper peels require more recovery time and medical oversight.
A Coordinated Plan
A chemical peel may sit within a broader physician-directed skin plan when concerns extend beyond surface renewal. Timing matters: complementary procedures should be sequenced rather than automatically performed together.
