Gentle Exfoliation With Maximum Benefits
Over time, dead skin cells build up on your skin, causing dullness, flaking, and texture. You may be prone to dry skin, or you may find that your skin doesn’t quite look like it used to as you age. One of the best ways to give your skin a refresh is with a professional chemical peel.
For more radiant, glowing skin, it’s important to exfoliate and encourage skin cell turnover. There are two forms of exfoliation: chemical and physical. While physical exfoliation has its place, it is oftentimes too abrasive for inflamed or sensitive skin. Chemical peels in Chicago at ReJenerate Aesthetic Studio are a more gentle approach. They use professional-grade ingredients to exfoliate away dead skin cells for restored, beautiful skin.

Better Skincare & Makeup Application
