Chemical Peels

Clinical-grade skin resurfacing that reveals clearer, smoother, more radiant skin — tailored to your skin type and concerns by Jennifer Corona, RN.

Resurfaced. Renewed. Results You Can See.

A chemical peel is one of the most effective and time-tested treatments in medical aesthetics — delivering meaningful improvements in skin clarity, tone, and texture by accelerating the skin's natural renewal process.

By applying a precisely formulated solution to the skin's surface, a chemical peel removes damaged outer layers, triggering cell turnover and revealing the fresher, healthier skin beneath. The result is a complexion that looks more even, feels smoother, and carries a natural luminosity that's difficult to achieve with topical skincare alone.

At Optera Medical Aesthetics, we offer the Perfect Derma Peel — one of the most advanced and results-driven peels available. Jennifer carefully evaluates your skin before every treatment, ensuring the right approach for your skin type, tone, and specific concerns.

The Perfect Derma Peel — Why We Use It

The Perfect Derma Peel is a medium-depth, self-neutralizing peel formulated with a powerful blend of TCA, kojic acid, retinoic acid, salicylic acid, phenol, and the antioxidant glutathione — making it one of the only peels on the market that actively works to brighten, resurface, and protect the skin simultaneously.

What sets the Perfect Derma Peel apart is its inclusion of glutathione — a potent antioxidant that inhibits melanin production, helping to fade hyperpigmentation, melasma, and uneven skin tone while the other active ingredients resurface and renew the skin's surface.

It is safe and effective for all skin types and tones, including deeper complexions that may be at higher risk for post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation with other peel formulas. Results are consistent, clinically meaningful, and visible after a single treatment — with continued improvement possible through a series of sessions.

What to Expect at Your Appointment

Your chemical peel appointment at Optera is straightforward, efficient, and guided by Jennifer's clinical expertise from start to finish.

Consultation

Jennifer reviews your skin concerns, evaluates your skin type and tone, and confirms that the Perfect Derma Peel is the right fit for your goals.

Preparation

The skin is cleansed and prepped before the peel solution is carefully applied. The treatment itself typically takes 30–45 minutes.

At-Home Care

The Perfect Derma Peel is a take-home system. Jennifer will send you home with the included post-peel kit and walk you through exactly how and when to use it over the days following your treatment.

Peels

Skin will begin to peel 3–5 days after treatment. This is a normal and expected part of the process as the damaged outer layers shed to reveal renewed skin beneath. Peeling typically resolves within 7 days.

Results

Most clients notice a visible improvement in brightness, clarity, and evenness within 7–10 days of treatment. Results continue to develop over the following weeks as the skin fully renews.
