Sometimes things go so well together you almost can’t imagine one without the other. Peanut butter and jelly, needle and thread, salt and pepper. That’s what happens to us when we talk about DermaSweep and chemical peels. Here at UCI Plastic Surgery, we’re always on the look out for the very best in facial rejuvenation, and this duo goes hand in hand to produce dramatic results.

Microdermabrasion + Chemical Peel

On their own, each of these treatments is an effective weapon in anyone’s anti-aging arsenal. They’re both safe and proven to work—and that’s what makes them such a compelling combo. Pair the DermaSweep with a chemical peel to combat the telltale signs of aging, like wrinkles and fine lines, unsightly blemishes, hyperpigmentation, and embarrassing acne scarring, for the most potent one-two punch in the skincare game.

Microdermabrasion with DermaSweep

The first step is the microdermabrasion treatment with DermaSweep. This remarkable technology works to give you smoother skin by stimulating circulation and cleaning out oil and dirt from your pores. It also spurs the creation of new collagen, which helps to tighten and tone your skin. DermaSweep is so impressive that we recommend making it a regular part of your maintenance routine.

Now that your skin has been cleared of dead cells and debris, it’s prepped for the next step.

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are a safe, effective, and affordable way to keep your skin in top shape. Whether you choose to combine one of these with your microdermabrasion session, or you just prefer to go for the peel itself, these treatments will have you looking great in no time!

Jessner – This treatment reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and sunspots while improving skin tone, giving you brighter, healthier, and more youthful-looking skin.

Lactic Acid Peel – This peel is excellent for those with sensitive skin and rosacea. It effectively removes debris, shrinks pores, clears away acne, diminishes discolorations, smooths out wrinkles and lines, and promotes natural collagen production.

TCA Peel – Technically called Trichloroacetic Acid, TCA peels are perfect for first timers. They gently exfoliate the surface of your skin while cleansing deep into the pores to improve hyperpigmentation, fade dark spots, even out skin tone, soften fine wrinkles and lines, and stimulates the production of all-important collagen.

Salicylic Acid Peel – A favorite among acne sufferers, the salicylic peel helps control the sebum production that leads to breakouts. By unclogging the pores, this peel also reduces wrinkles and fine lines, improves congested skin, diminishes the appearance of acne scarring, and improves the skin’s overall tone and texture.
