Before & After Results




What to Expect During Your Peel
Each appointment begins with a one-on-one skin assessment so your provider can match the right peel strength to your skin type and goals. After a thorough cleanse, the solution is applied in measured layers — most patients describe a mild tingling or warming sensation that subsides quickly. The full treatment takes about 30 minutes, and you’ll leave with a customized aftercare plan, including the medical-grade products needed to protect and prolong your results.
Why Choose Indian Hills Aesthetics for Your Skinbetter Peel
