Book Your ConsultationHow Chemical Peels Work
A chemical peel is a controlled application of acid solutions to the skin that removes damaged outer layers and stimulates the growth of new, healthier skin underneath. By triggering your body’s natural wound-healing response, peels accelerate cell turnover, stimulate collagen production, and improve tone, texture, and clarity from the inside out.
Not all chemical peels are created equal. Depth, acid type, concentration, and application technique all determine the results and recovery. At Face It Dermalab, we offer two carefully selected medical-grade peels — each designed for different skin concerns and downtime preferences. Every peel is customized by Vanesa based on your skin assessment, not pulled off a shelf.
Whether you need a no-downtime peel you can do on your lunch break or a deeper peel for stubborn hyperpigmentation and scarring, we have the right protocol for your skin.
Two Medical-Grade Peels — One Right for You
We offer two fundamentally different peeling systems. The right choice depends on your skin concerns, tolerance for downtime, and treatment goals.
| BioRePeel | Perfect Derma Peel | |
|---|---|---|
| Peel Type | Dual-phase TCA (35%) | Medium-depth blend (TCA + phenol + retinoic acid) |
| Key Differentiator | No downtime, no visible peeling | Only peel with glutathione (master antioxidant) |
| Downtime | Zero — return to activities immediately | 5–7 days of visible peeling |
| Best For | Acne, texture, dull skin, maintenance | Hyperpigmentation, melasma, scarring, anti-aging |
| Photosensitivity | Not photosensitive — year-round safe | Photosensitive — best for fall/winter |
| Treatment Areas | Face, neck, chest, back, hands | Face primarily |
| Recommended Series | 4–6 treatments, 7–10 days apart | 1–3 treatments, 4–6 weeks apart |
| Treatment Time | ~15 minutes | ~30 minutes |

BioRePeel — The “No-Peel Peel”
BioRePeel uses patented dual-phase technology to deliver 35% TCA exfoliation without the harsh peeling and recovery of traditional TCA peels. The two-phase system separates the exfoliating acid from bio-stimulating compounds — amino acids (proline, hydroxyproline, arginine), vitamins, and GABA — that protect and nourish the skin while TCA does its work.
The result is medical-grade cell turnover and collagen stimulation with the recovery profile of a superficial peel. Most clients leave with a visible glow and return to normal activities immediately. BioRePeel is not photosensitizing, making it one of the few professional peels safe to use year-round — even in Texas summers.
Best for: Acne, congestion, dull texture, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, maintenance between deeper treatments.

The Perfect Derma Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel and the only medical-grade peel in the world formulated with glutathione — the body’s master antioxidant. Combined with TCA, kojic acid, retinoic acid, salicylic acid, and vitamin C, it delivers aggressive exfoliation and deep correction for stubborn skin concerns.
Unlike BioRePeel, the Perfect Derma Peel produces visible peeling over 5–7 days as the old, damaged skin sheds to reveal fresh, rejuvenated skin underneath. Glutathione provides a detoxifying, brightening effect from within — neutralizing free radicals, inhibiting melanin production, and supporting cellular repair at a level no other peel ingredient can match.
Best for: Deep hyperpigmentation, melasma, moderate-to-severe acne scarring, significant sun damage, anti-aging correction.

Chemical peels involve controlled chemical injury to the skin. The difference between a transformative result and a complication comes down to the practitioner’s ability to assess your skin, select the right peel, monitor the treatment in real time, and manage any unexpected reactions.
Vanesa Acosta holds a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), an active Registered Nurse (RN) license, and a Licensed Esthetician (LE) credential. Her nursing education covers pharmacology, wound healing, inflammatory response, and skin physiology at a depth that standard esthetician programs do not. This means she understands how chemical peels interact with different skin types, medications, and conditions — and can adjust protocols in real time based on what your skin is telling her.
Every peel at Face It Dermalab is performed by Vanesa personally. No handoffs to junior staff. No one-size-fits-all protocols.
Skin Concerns Our Chemical Peels Address
- Acne and breakouts — Salicylic acid in both peels clears congestion and reduces breakout frequency
- Hyperpigmentation and dark spots — TCA + kojic acid (Perfect Derma) or TCA + Vitamin C (BioRePeel) fade discoloration
- Melasma — Perfect Derma Peel’s glutathione + kojic acid inhibits melanin production at a deeper level
- Fine lines and wrinkles — Collagen stimulation from TCA and amino acids rebuilds dermal structure
- Acne scarring — Accelerated cell turnover smooths post-inflammatory texture over a series of treatments
- Sun damage — Both peels repair photodamage; BioRePeel can be used year-round for maintenance

- Large pores — Consistent exfoliation and collagen stimulation visibly reduce pore size

Chemical Peels in Dallas — FAQs
What chemical peels does Face It Dermalab offer?
We offer two medical-grade chemical peels: BioRePeel, a dual-phase TCA peel with zero downtime that can be used year-round, and the Perfect Derma Peel, a medium-depth peel with glutathione that produces 5–7 days of visible peeling for deeper skin correction. Both are administered by Vanesa Acosta, BSN, RN, Licensed Esthetician.
Which chemical peel is right for me?
If you want results with zero downtime and can commit to a series of 4–6 treatments, BioRePeel is an excellent choice for acne, texture, and maintenance. If you have deep hyperpigmentation, melasma, or significant scarring and can tolerate 5–7 days of peeling, the Perfect Derma Peel delivers more aggressive correction in fewer sessions. During your consultation, Vanesa assesses your skin and recommends the right peel for your specific concerns.
Are chemical peels safe for darker skin tones?
Yes, when properly assessed and applied. BioRePeel is safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types (I–VI). The Perfect Derma Peel can also be used on darker skin tones with appropriate pre-treatment preparation. Vanesa’s nursing background in skin physiology ensures that peel selection and application are tailored to minimize the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
How much do chemical peels cost in Dallas?
Chemical peel pricing at Face It Dermalab varies by peel type and treatment plan. Contact us for current pricing and series package options. Every treatment is administered by Vanesa personally — no junior staff, no upsells.
Can I get a chemical peel in the summer?
BioRePeel is not photosensitizing and can be safely used year-round, including during Dallas summers. The Perfect Derma Peel increases sun sensitivity during the peeling phase and is typically recommended for fall and winter months. Vanesa will recommend the right timing based on your treatment plan.
Can chemical peels be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Chemical peels pair well with dermaplaning as a pre-treatment for deeper penetration, with microneedling for enhanced collagen remodeling on alternating visits, and with DMK Enzyme Therapy for comprehensive skin revision. Your treatment plan is built around your goals, not a fixed menu.
How often should I get a chemical peel?
BioRePeel is done in a series of 4–6 treatments spaced 7–10 days apart, with maintenance treatments monthly or seasonally. The Perfect Derma Peel is done 1–3 times per year with 4–6 weeks between treatments. Your treatment frequency is customized based on your skin’s response and goals.
