Chemical Peels

Whether you are left with uneven skin texture or have been left with acne scars, a chemical peel can be beneficial for most skin types. At the SKINLIFE Medspa we offer some of the most effective chemical peels in Alaska with proven results to illuminate and revitalize your skin.

Each peel is specially selected by our team to tailor your specific skin type and needs. Your peel is designed to leave your skin with a smooth and youthful glow.  A chemical peel can improve multiple skin conditions by eliminating dead skin and allowing new, fresh skin to shine through.

Peel Levels 

Level 1 (Light) Light or superficial chemical peels are used to treat acne, uneven coloring, and any skin dryness.

Level 2 (Medium) Moderate chemical peels are used to improve the skin’s tone, texture, balance uneven coloring and minimize acne scars.

Level 3 (Deep) Intense chemical peels are used to treat more severe conditions of deep lines, wrinkles, skin tone, texture, balance uneven coloring and minimize severe acne scars.

Microneedling works by creating thousands of microchannels that stimulate your body’s natural wound healing process with minimal cellular damage. It rejuvenates your skin from the inside out, resulting in effective remodeling of scar tissue while keeping the overall structure of the skin intact.

  • Stimulates new collagen production to not only give you tighter, firmer-looking skin,* also results in younger-acting skin
  • Targets blemishes creating a smoother, more radiant complexion
  • Faster healing time than traditional microneedling

 The Potenza RF microneedling treatment uses ultrafine needles and heat to penetrate the top layer of the skin in order to trigger the body’s natural healing process which regenerates new collagen and elastin. The number of passes and penetration to the skin varies by patient and impacts the results seen. Elastin and collagen building typically takes place 4-6 weeks after treatment on average, and optimal results are typically seen at 12 weeks after the last treatment.

ZO Skin Health 3-step Stimulator Peel

The ZO 3-Step Peel is a powerfully effective method of treating fine lines, sun damage, dull skin, melasma, acne, and uneven texture concerns. 

It is safe and effective for all skin types and has been demonstrated to have some of the most effective and long-lasting results in the industry.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion treatments use a minimally abrasive instrument to gently sand your skin, removing the thicker, uneven outer layer, and has many benefits.

What microdermabrasion can do is:

• Improve age spots and blackheads

• Help improve hyperpigmentation

• Exfoliate your skin, resulting in a refreshed appearance

• Lessen the appearance of stretch marks

• Reduce fine lines and wrinkles

• Reduce or eliminate enlarged pores

• Treat acne and acne scars

Help to thicken your collagen, resulting in a younger looking complexion.

Collagen is a protein in your skin which is abundant as a child and results in skin appearing taut and smooth. Collagen production declines as we age and naturally results in looser, uneven skin.

Dermaplane

Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation meant primarily to be performed on the face. Also known as leveling the skin or blading, it uses a sterile surgical blade, known as a dermatome, to gently scrape away the top layer of problem skin.

For best results it's recommended that the procedure be done every 3 to 4 weeks (or once a month), coinciding with a normal skin cycle of approximately 30 days.

Dermaplaning can:

- Leave skin soft and supple

- Exfoliate and remove dead skin cells

- Removes "peach fuzz"

- Enhance penetration of your skincare regimen products

- Be used in conjunction with other aesthetic procedures such as chemical peels

After the treatment, your make up will go on better and your skin will be very smooth.

This procedure requires no downtime!

This gives the face a more youthful, vibrant appearance. Treatment reduces the need for surgery or use of temporary fillers like Restylane, Juvederm and hyaluronic acid.

A true and complete facial rejuvenation procedure that doesn't involve surgery and avoids any open incision. It aids the process of “lifting” the skin itself. This treatment helps to improve face shape and contour, skin color and irregularities caused by normal aging. It also improves the appearance of marks from sun and environment exposure.
