Types of Exfoliation Treatments

Chemical Peels

An intensive treatment designed to accelerate exfoliation in the top layers of the skin and stimulate collagen synthesis. We offer several different types of chemical peels that vary depending upon skin type and concern. This non-invasive, non-surgical procedure requires very little down time following the treatment.  Chemical peels are usually sold in packages of 6.  Call The MediSpa for the price of chemical peel packages!

Traditional Chemical Peel - This topical peel treats acne, sun damage, fine lines and mild scarring. A series of peels combined with microderm is very beneficial in helping with your aging skin and the overall texture. You will see your best results through a series of 3 or more treatments. This peel applies salicylic, glycolic 30% and 60%, modified jessner 14%, and TCA 10%.

Lactic Acid Peel - This peel offers exfoliating and moisture retention properties and will promote softer, smoother skin as well as improvements in the appearance of fine lines.

Enzyme Peel - A light exfoliant with fruit enzymes and salicylic acid to help break down dead cells for smoother skin. Promotes clarification to reduce oiliness for clearer skin.

Derma Pod / "Fearless Facelift"

The Derma Pod is a machine that provides a painless, non-invasive facelift. It combines microdermabrasion with photo-biostimulation and micro current to fight the aging process. In order to provide maxium results, several treatments are necessary.

The Kinelift is a non-invasive, painless facial treatment using the Derma Pod. This process visibly lifts the skin, correcting age-related issues. It improves muscle tone and stimulates the production of collagen. The micro-currents retrain the muscle tissues to regain their initial tone, reshaping facial contour and reducing the appearance of wrinkles. The Dermalift is a neck lifting treatment that can also be added on to the Kinelift treatment.

The "Ultimate Rejuvenating Treatment" is a combination of microdermabrasion, Kinelift and Dermalift to give you the maximum benefits of the Derma Pod.
