Facials and Peels

It is important to cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate your skin as it is constantly regenerating new skin cells.

The Skin Institute at Skin Cancer & Dermatology Institute offers a variety of treatments to help you achieve healthy, beautiful skin through exfoliation and hydration leaving the skin with a smoother and brighter tone and texture.  The treatments include:

Diamond Glow® by Allergan

Diamond Glow® by Allergan is a non-invasive treatment that simultaneously exfoliates, extracts, and infuses the skin with condition-specific serums. This gives your skin optimized plumpness, volume, hydration, tone, and texture. It delivers immediate and long-lasting results for all skin types.


Facials

We offer ​one-hour custom​ ​facial​ ​based​ ​on​ ​your​ ​skin​ ​care​ ​needs.  This includes​ ​consultation, ​​cleansing, ​ exfoliation,​ ​and  ​treatment​. We specialize in teen facials, acne facials and rejuvenating facials. 


Hydrafacial®

Your Next Skin Care Obsession! HydraFacial is a unique non-invasive, medical-grade, virtually painless treatment that cleanses, extracts, hydrates, and infuses the skin, resulting in glowing, visibly hydrated skin. This popular facial can be customized to meet your specific needs and delivers lasting results. HydraFacial is suitable for most skin types, including teens with acne.

HydraFacial was designed to treat a myriad of skin care needs, including fine lines, wrinkles, elasticity, firmness, discoloration, skin texture, age spots, oily skin, and clogged/enlarged pores.

We offer three HydraFacial treatment options: Signature (30 minutes), Deluxe (45 minutes), and Platinum (60 minutes). Downtime and side effects are minimal – some redness may occur. Avoid makeup after your facial allowing your skin the chance to soak up the full effect of the HydraFacial.


Chemical Peels

We offer a range of chemical peels that vary in degree of intensity tailored to your needs and our skilled aestheticians will help you choose the best treatment for your skin.

  • Salicylic Acid Peels

    • Salicylic acid peels are a helpful solution for oily and acne prone skin and can also brighten the skin with a minimal amount of downtime.
  • Glycolic Acid Peels

    • Glycolic acid peels exfoliate and hydrate and brighten the skin and increase the skin’s ability to absorb serums and moisturizers. This peel can also help treat melasma.
  • Lactic Acid Peels

    • Lactic acid peels exfoliate the top layer of cells and reveal fresh healthy skin. This is a good choice for those treating age spots and giving your skin a healthy glow.

Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning​ ​is​ ​a​ ​gentle​ ​form​ ​of​ ​exfoliation​ ​that​ ​can​ ​be​ ​used​ ​on​ ​most​ ​skin​ ​and​ ​hair​ ​types.​ ​Along with​ ​gently​ ​removing​ ​the​ ​top​ ​layers​ ​of​ ​dead​ ​skin​ ​cells,​ ​it​ ​removes ​soft​ ​facial​ ​hairs.​ ​This treatment​ ​is​ ​great to get before​ ​a​ ​big​ ​event as your​ ​makeup​ ​will​ ​lay​ ​perfectly​ ​and​ ​flawlessly​ ​on your​ ​soft​ ​skin.
