Chemical Peels

Customized peels that resurface skin to improve tone, texture, and clarity.

What a peel does

A chemical peel uses clinical-grade acids to speed up your skin's natural cell turnover — exfoliating the surface, unclogging pores, and revealing newer, healthier skin underneath. In a series, peels improve tone, texture, breakouts, and early signs of aging.

Vue's peel menu

Our Advanced Master Estheticians match the peel to your skin and goals:

ZO® Stimulator Peel — a gentle AHA/BHA blend with antioxidants; a good starting point for first-timers, it brightens with no downtime (about 30 minutes).
PCA® Sensi Peel — a balanced blend of vitamin C and lactic acid that brightens and strengthens sensitive skin without irritation.
PCA® Pigment-Correcting Peel — targets uneven tone, dark spots, and hyperpigmentation.
PCA® Ultra Peel — our strongest esthetician-applied peel, which softens fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven tone.
PCA® Acne Peel Plus — formulated to clear active breakouts and calm acne-prone skin.
Retinol boost — an optional 4% or 6% retinol add-on to deepen results.

Physician-applied TCA

For more advanced concerns, Vue offers a TCA 30% peel administered by Dr. Swenson, our board-certified facial plastic surgeon. It's a deeper peel with more resurfacing power — and more downtime — reserved for the right candidate, with a follow-up a few days after.

What to expect

Lighter peels (ZO, PCA Sensi and Pigment-Correcting) have little to no downtime; you may notice mild flaking over a few days. Stronger peels (Ultra, TCA) involve visible peeling as your skin renews. Your esthetician — or Dr. Swenson for TCA — will walk you through prep and aftercare. Diligent sun protection afterward is essential.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which peel is right for me?

It depends on your skin and goals — the ZO Stimulator or PCA Sensi peel is a gentle place to start; Pigment-Correcting targets dark spots; Ultra Peel addresses lines and texture; Acne Peel Plus targets breakouts. Your esthetician will recommend the right one at your visit.

Will I peel or flake?

Lighter peels cause little to no visible peeling — maybe mild flaking for a few days. Stronger peels (Ultra, TCA) involve more noticeable peeling as your skin renews.

How much downtime is there?

Most of our peels have minimal downtime and you can return to normal activity right away. The TCA 30% peel is deeper and involves several days of peeling plus a follow-up visit.

How many peels will I need?

Peels work best in a series. Many guests do a series of three, spaced about four weeks apart, then maintain periodically.

What makes the TCA peel different?

The TCA 30% peel is deeper and is administered by Dr. Swenson, our board-certified facial plastic surgeon, for advanced tone, texture, and sun-damage concerns — more resurfacing, with more downtime.

Can I combine a peel with other treatments?

Often, yes — peels pair well with facials and other skin treatments. We'll plan the right spacing so your skin isn't over-treated.
