Chemical Peels

At Sanctuary Cosmetic Center, we offer a variety of chemical peels that can be adapted to your unique skin needs by our knowledgeable team. 

Brown Out Peel 

Skin Brightening System 

This is an in-office procedure; our patients leave with the peel on and keep it on for 8-10 hours, depending on their skin type. 

Active Peel Ingredients 

  • Retinoid, a vitamin A-related chemical compound known for its pigment-reducing qualities 
  • Arbutin, a natural skin brightener derived from the leaves of the bearberry plant 

Recovery 

7-10 days of significant redness, peeling, swelling and dryness. 

Results 

With the combination of retinoid, the pigment-reducing, wrinkle-fighting, skin-smoothing cure for all skin problems, and Arbutin, the natural skin-lightening agent, results obtained by the Brown Out Peel are hard to imitate. It’s the ideal treatment for moderate to severe hyperpigmentation or melasma. It’s also the best one-time treatment choice for reducing large pores, fine lines, and wrinkles. 

Indications 

Can be applied on all skin types 

*Includes a take-home post-procedure kit.

“This was my second consultation with Dr. Rostami. She was very personable, made great recommendations, and did not try to “up sell” me on anything. I feel very confident in her hands for my upcoming procedures.”

Mini Smooth Out Peel 

Peel Solution for Mild Exfoliation 

This is an in-office procedure; the peel is left on for 10 minutes and then neutralized before the patient leaves. 

Active Peel Ingredients 

  • Azeloyl trichloroacetamide (TCA) and salicylic acid in a precise combination 
  • Retinol wipes 

Recovery 

2-3 days of mild redness, peeling, and dryness. 

Results 

This peel is intended for those who want very little downtime. It’s great for a patient who has never done a chemical peel but wants something more than a mechanical exfoliation. It improves fine lines and pore size and brightens. 

Indications 

Can be applied on skin types 1-4. 

*Includes a take-home post-procedure kit.
