Chemical Peels

Chemical Peels in Manhattan, NYC
Board-certified Manhattan plastic surgeon and general surgeon Richard W. Swift, Jr., M.D., F.A.C.S. offers two distinctive kinds of peels to help rejuvenate and restore youthful-looking skin. Chemical peels are designed to help remove the outer layer of the skin, revealing softer and younger-looking skin underneath.

What Is a Chemical Peel?
Dr. Swift trusts the Dermaceutic line of chemical peels, which have been used safely for over 20 years. With over 1 million treatments performed, Dermaceutic peels are noted for their non-invasive nature and have zero downtime. That means you can return to your normal activities right away –with softer, younger-looking skin!

Benefits of a Chemical Peel
Dermaceutic chemical peels offer a number of significant benefits to patients at our Manhattan clinic, including the following:

• Softer, more rejuvenated skin
• Improved skin texture
• Better self-esteem and self-confidence

Chemical Peel Before and After
We invite you to browse our extensive catalog of cosmetic treatments to see the types of results Dr. Swift has obtained for his patients. Keep in mind that each individual is different and that you’ll learn more about the outcome you can expect from your specific surgery or treatment at your consultation with Dr. Swift.

Preparing for a Chemical Peel
Two different types of peels can be done: the spot peel and the Cosmo peel. A spot peel helps treat moderate pigment issues and generally takes less than 15 minutes. Patients undergoing a spot peel will notice a visible reduction in pigmentation and more luminous skin overall. The Cosmo peel incorporates a proprietary mixture of hydrating, skin-loving nutrients that can help soften dark spots, pigmentation, and fine lines.

Chemical Peel Recovery
There may be additional treatments necessary, particularly on areas of the skin that have sustained sun damage or more severe pigmentation. In addition, an exfoliating cleanser and recovery cream (available at our office) should be used to help enhance the results.

Is a Chemical Peel Right for Me?
If you are bothered by skin pigmentation, sun damage, fine lines, or skin tone issues and want to enjoy softer, more radiant-looking skin, a chemical peel may be right for you. Dr. Swift can accurately determine if you are a candidate for a chemical peel, so contact our Manhattan cosmetic treatment office to learn more.

How Much Does a Chemical Peel Cost?
Costs for your chemical peel treatment will vary depending on the number of treatments needed to achieve your desired result. Most insurance plans do not cover plastic surgery or specific cosmetic treatments. Dr. Swift accepts payment via cash, check, or credit card, as well as Alphaeon Healthcare Lending as a financing option.
