Medical-Grade Chemical Peels
Individuals who show visible signs of aging on their skin and who are interested in less invasive treatments than traditional cosmetic surgery procedures can opt for one of the non-surgical aesthetic procedures offered at Beautologie Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Center.

Medical-Grade Chemical Peels
We offer a variety of highly effective chemical peels for the treatment of acne, fine lines, wrinkles, discolorations, and other skin issues. Chemical peels work by removing damaged layers of skin to reveal healthier skin underneath. Beautologie provides each patient with a specially customized chemical peel treatment that best meets the patient's needs. Patients who undergo a chemical peel may experience tingling, reddening, and peeling of the skin for a few days after the procedure. However, side effects are mild and disappear as the skin adjusts to the treatment, resulting in beautiful, glowing facial skin.
Glycolic Acid Chemical Peels
Glycolic acid peels are the gentlest chemical peels we offer. Made from glycolic acid derived from sugar cane, these light chemical peels exfoliate layers of skin damaged from sun exposure, acne, and other factors. Glycolic acid peels also eliminate fine lines and effectively address rough, dry, or discolored skin. The glycolic acid also stimulates collagen and elastin production, which is key for youthful, healthy skin. After just ten minutes of treatment, you can achieve younger, smoother skin and a more even skin tone. Most people go right back to work or life immediately after the treatment, making it a great “lunchtime” procedure.
Obagi Blue Peel® System
In addition to our amazing glycolic acid and TCA chemical peels, our Bakersfield cosmetic surgery practice is pleased to feature the Obagi Blue Peel® System for a chemical peel treatment that is completely customized to your unique skin care needs. The Obagi Blue Peel® is a combination of trichloroacetic acid and a special blue paste that controls the speed of the treatment process. The peel removes aged and damaged skin cells at the surface to reveal a smooth and silky skin complexion underneath. Patients with wrinkles, skin discolorations, acne scars, freckles, and more are just 20 minutes away from beautiful, healthy skin! The Obagi Blue Peel® System is used in conjunction with our skin care line for the ultimate in skin transformation.
