SkinMedica® Illuminize Peel
Candidates
As Illuminize Peels are a mild and gentle chemical peel treatment, it is recommended for first time patients who have never undergone a chemical treatment before. This will allow them to adjust to chemical peel treatments before deciding if they want or need a peel that is more potent. Illuminize Peels are also recommended for patients who have minor skin perfections, as well as for patients who want to enjoy having more radiant and brighter skin without needing to take time off their daily routine.
The treatment is safe for all skin types as well as individuals with fair and darker skin tones. Not everyone is a candidate for a chemical peel and a consultation with a trained medical professional will determine if the treatment is ideal for you. In most cases, your medical professional will advise you to avoid using/undergoing any products or medical procedures that will increase the sensitivity of your skin. It is important in order to achieve safe and favorable results to be completely honest about your medical condition, prescriptions and products you are currently using or medical procedures you have had recently done.
Accelerated Exfoliation
An Illuminize Peel will accelerate the exfoliation of your skin similar to microdermabrasion and also help provide a more uniform complexion resulting in skin that is renewed and healthier.
Illuminize is a two – step peel that contains a blend of acetone, salicylic acid and mandelic acid. This blend is the key to the gentle treatment offered by an Illuminize Peel. The blend of alpha-hydroxy acids with phytic acids and peeling agents traditionally used (salicylic acid) maximizes the rejuvenating effects and decreases irritation commonly caused after applying a chemical peel.
Illuminize performs a mild exfoliation on the top layers of the skin without peeling or drying out the skin. Unlike higher grade chemical peel treatments skin does not peel after the Illuminize Peel treatment. Most patients have experienced no visible or very little peeling.

A tinted or untinted sunscreen to protect your skin from the harmful ultraviolet rays may also be prescribed.
As for the treatment products that you use on a routine basis, you will be able to return to your regular skin care regimen just 4 or 5 days after the treatment has been administered.
