AFA and ALA peels and facials

We offer a wide range of skin peel treatments at ICCM each with its own benefits and results ranging from Light Glycolic Peels (AFA) to Chemical Peels (ALA).

AFA Facial Peels have been performed for over 70 years. It is a technique used to freshen the skin, soften fine lines, increase the circulation and improve the skin overall. It lightens pigmentation of the skin in the form of sun spots, liver spots, freckles, blotchiness due to sun damage. Mild acne scarring & certain types of acne can also be treated. Today we approach the skin by preparing the skin prior and peeling less deeply and more often than we used to in the past. A course of approximately 3 to 6 treatments is recommended for maximum results.

We also offer our patients a new and revolutionary ALA photosensitizer treatment which combined with the Ominlux Revive Red Light has shown remarkable results as a Photofacial that significantly reduces fine line, wrinkles as well as pigmentation.  This treatment in the past has been used extensively and sucessfully in the treatment of Skin Cancer with remarkable results. These peels come in various degrees of potency depending on your requirements.  We usually recommend a course of only 1 or 2 ALA peels for best results.
