Temecula Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are professional skin treatments that use carefully selected exfoliating solutions to remove damaged outer layers of skin and reveal a smoother, brighter complexion underneath.

What Are Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels are professional skin treatments that use carefully formulated solutions to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin. By removing damaged or dead skin cells, chemical peels stimulate cell turnover and encourage new, smoother skin to emerge. The result is brighter, clearer, and more even-toned skin.
At Newman Plastic Surgery in Temecula, chemical peels are customized to your skin type, concerns, and goals to ensure safe and effective results.
How Chemical Peels Work
Chemical peels use a medical-grade exfoliating solution applied to your skin. This solution helps loosen and remove dead skin cells. As your skin heals, it produces more collagen, which can improve texture, tone, and firmness over time.
Depending on how strong the peel is, you may have little to no downtime, or you might notice some peeling and need a short recovery period.
Types of Chemical Peels
There are several types of chemical peels available, each formulated to address specific skin concerns and skin types. The goal is to achieve beautiful, safe, and long-lasting results, which lies in selecting the right peel strength and ingredients for your unique complexion. At Newman Plastic Surgery, chemical peels are carefully selected and customized to ensure optimal outcomes while protecting your skin’s health.

Nurse Izzy at Temecula Valley Plastic Surgery will recommend the best option based on your skin’s needs.
Superficial vs. Medium vs. Deep Chemical Peels
Superficial Peels
These peels gently exfoliate the outermost layer of skin. They are ideal for refreshing the skin, improving mild discoloration, and enhancing glow with minimal downtime.
Medium Peels
Medium-depth peels penetrate deeper to address acne scars, sun damage, and moderate wrinkles. Some downtime is expected, but results are more noticeable.
Deep Peels
Deep chemical peels target advanced signs of aging and severe skin concerns. These are less common, require longer recovery, and are only recommended in select cases.

3-Step Peel

Stimulator Peel
Often called the “lunchtime peel,” the Stimulator Peel offers an immediate, healthy glow with minimal downtime. This gentle yet effective peel uses a blend of exfoliating acids to remove dull surface cells, refine texture, and brighten the complexion without any visible peeling. Many patients notice their skin looks smoother, clearer, and more refreshed right after treatment.
Because it requires no recovery time, the Stimulator Peel is ideal for maintaining healthy skin between more advanced treatments or for preparing your skin before a special event. It also enhances the absorption and effectiveness of your skincare products, making it a favorite for patients who want consistent, radiant results without interrupting their daily routine.

Chemical Peel FAQs
Do chemical peels help with acne and acne scars?
Chemical peels help unclog pores, reduce inflammation, and control oil production, making them highly effective for acne-prone skin. Over time, they can also soften the appearance of acne scars by encouraging skin renewal.
Do chemical peels help with dark spots and uneven skin tone?
Hyperpigmentation from sun damage, melasma, or acne can be significantly improved with chemical peels. By exfoliating pigmented cells, peels help create a more even, balanced complexion.
Do chemical peels help with wrinkles?
Yes. Chemical peels stimulate collagen and remove damaged skin layers, which helps soften fine lines and improve overall skin firmness. While deeper wrinkles may require additional treatments, peels are an excellent anti-aging solution.
Are chemical peels safe?
Chemical peels are very safe. Every treatment is customized to your skin type and medical history to minimize risks and maximize results.
Do chemical peels hurt?
Most chemical peels may cause a mild tingling or warming sensation during application. Deeper peels may feel more intense but are well-tolerated and temporary. Your provider will ensure your comfort throughout the treatment.
What to expect during a chemical peel?
Your appointment begins with a thorough skin evaluation. The peel solution is then applied for a controlled amount of time before being neutralized or removed. The entire process typically takes 30–45 minutes.
What to expect after a chemical peel?
After treatment, your skin may appear red, tight, or slightly flaky. Peeling usually begins within a few days, depending on the depth of the peel. Post-treatment care instructions will be provided to protect your results.

Sarah Tanner
“For the last 20 years I’ve been coming to doctor Newman for Breast augmentation and preventive agríngate procedures, I see him about 2 to 3 times a year for Botox , Newman is very honest on what is needed nothing more and gives you options, most doctors just try to sell you a procedure just to make money. I trust him not only for me but friends and family.
He has worked on many of my close friends and family in the last 20 years and we are very happy with his work. Highly recommend him!”
Nora Veronica Reynoso
“I recently met with Izzy the RN, for Botox.
She was very honest with me saying I should wait a bit longer for Botox and work on building my collagen and skincare. Instead, she recommended some medical grade products and within a week I see a big difference in my skin! All the dead stuff is flaking off and it’s already baby soft. I’m an older woman so she could have sold me anything! I appreciate great honest care that can be rare in this field. She knows I don’t want a plasticized look. I’m a definitely new a client and will be seeing her again.”
