Introducing

GFaceMD Signature Medical-Strength Chemical Peels

Dr. Gretchen Frieling is proud to introduce her own signature line of chemical peels. Including a wide variety of different acids and strengths, Dr. Frieling’s peels can be customized to address your specific needs and concerns. Dr. Frieling recommends 3 peels, approximately 4-5 weeks apart, for optimal results.

WHAT IS A

CHEMICAL PEEL?

A chemical peel is used to remove dead skin cells and stimulate new cell growth. It is a liquid that is applied to the skin, face, and neck, that has been specially chosen for your skin type and concerns. It will induce exfoliation and peeling of the skin, which is then replaced by new, smoother and brighter looking skin. Chemical peels can help decrease the appearance of wrinkles, brown spots, and acne. Multiple treatments may be necessary for the best-desired outcome.

WHAT DOES A

CHEMICAL PEEL DO?

Smooth your skin, making wrinkles less visible.
Fade pigment spots and an uneven skin tone.
Make your skin look younger and refreshed.
Boost collagen production, for firmer skin (with repeat treatments every 6 to 8 weeks).
