Microdermabrasion Before & After Photos
SilkPeel™ - Advanced Microdermabrasion
The SilkPeel is an advanced type of microdermabrasion that brightens the complexion and renews the skin's texture and tone. The patented handpiece delivers a skin-specific serum while gently exfoliating away dull, damaged skin. It combines the luxurious feel of a spa facial with the significant improvements you'd expect from a professional chemical peel.
Potential Benefits
The SilkPeel is an excellent treatment for rejuvenating dull, dry skin on the face, neck, and chest while correcting the following concerns:
- Sun damage
- Age spots
- Fine lines
- Acne scarring
- Pigmentation problems
The SilkPeel also improves penetration of medical-grade skin care products after treatment—which can expedite expected results.

These relaxing treatments take less than 30 minutes to complete. The patented handpiece exfoliates the outermost layer of skin, opens the pores, and delivers a personalized formulation of vitamins, antioxidants, and other healing ingredients to the deeper layers of skin where they are most effective.
After treatment, the skin may have a warm, pink glow for approximately 30 minutes. The result is a noticeable improvement in skin texture and appearance right away that keeps on getting better without the discomfort or downtime generally associated with a chemical peel.
Chemical Peels
Our medical-grade chemical peels use either a solution of lactic acid or salicylic acid to chemically exfoliate the skin by dissolving its outermost dead, dry layers. This type of treatment is a "chemical alternative" to the SilkPeel, which is a mechanical option that exfoliates using gentle abrasion combined with suction.
SmartXide Laser: A Powerful Alternative
Want a more powerful way to treat the signs of sun damage and aging? The SmartXide fractional CO2 laser may be the right fit. See why Dr. Mosher personally performs these impressive treatments.
Our skin care specialists help patients choose the peel--which can range in strength from mild to deep--that will best provide improvements they desire. While deep peels provide the most noticeable improvements, they require a longer healing period than mild peels.
Potential Benefits
In addition to revealing fresher, brighter skin, chemical peels may be selected to address a range of concerns, including:
- Acne
- Hyperpigmentation
- Superficial scarring
- Fine lines
Chemical peels can also make other skin treatments, services, and products more effective.
What to Expect
We often use chemical peels on the face, neck, and hands. These treatments typically take from 15 to 60 minutes to perform, depending on the specific peel being used, areas being treated, and the condition of the skin. The peel is applied to the skin, allowed to take effect, and then removed. Over a period of up to 2 weeks, the treated layers of skin gradually exfoliate and peel off, revealing fresh new skin.
