Ready for smoother, brighter skin? Dr. Dustin Portela and PA Austin Lee dive deep into the world of chemical peels in this episode of Skinfluence. They break down how peels work, who’s a good candidate, and the difference between in-office treatments and at-home exfoliation. From glycolic and salicylic acids to powerhouse TCA and even intense phenol peels, they discuss the benefits, risks, and myths surrounding this classic skin treatment.
They also share tips on avoiding common peel mistakes, how to prep and protect your skin, and why sometimes less is more when it comes to exfoliation. Plus, discover ancient beauty secrets (Cleopatra’s sour milk baths, anyone?) and modern product recommendations for safe at-home exfoliation.
Whether you’re curious about tackling acne, pigmentation, fine lines, or just want that glow, this episode has you covered.
