What Are Chemical Peels?
For the best results from chemical peel aesthetic treatments, Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa provides you with several choices. Your customized chemical peel with exfoliating solutions (such as salicylic, glycolic, trichloroacetic, and lactic acids) will give you healthier, more radiant skin. At our West Palmdale, Ridgecrest, and Tehachapi, CA practices, our team offers chemical peel treatments that remove skin irregularities, such as scars, fine lines, wrinkles, dry patches, hyperpigmentation issues, and more. Chemical peels clear away damaged, dead skin cells by using a personalized treatment on the skin, which causes the oldest layer to slough off. When your skin recovers and starts to repair and rejuvenate itself, you should see a smoother, clearer complexion. A chemical peel facial is a noninvasive way to make your complexion bright and is appropriate for the neck and face.
How Are Chemical Peels Performed?
During your procedure at Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa, we will have you lying in a relaxed position to administer your peel. We will clean your skin before applying the personalized solution to your treatment areas. We will brush the solution onto the skin and allow it to work for a specific length of time, which will be discussed in your treatment planning session. Next, we will clean the solution off your skin and apply a neutralizing agent. Patients are encouraged to bring light sunscreen and/or a hat to wear outside after the procedure to protect from environmental exposure.
What Are the Benefits of Chemical Peels?
Depending on the strength of the treatment, you could experience a myriad of the following advantages from your session at Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa, including:
- Diminished wrinkles and signs of aging
- Balanced and neutral skin tone
- Moisturized, enhanced skin texture
- Reduction of pores and different skin flaws
Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa Reviews
I am so happy that I went to Shandu Dermatology!Dr Harika Shandu is an excellent surgeon with outstanding attention to detail. Her stitchwork is so beautiful that it reminds me of fine embroidery on a silk cloth. She's that good!I had what looked like two pimples on my back, but they were just the tip of the iceberg. I heard a "snip snip" , it felt like a haircut, and when she was done, a non-cancerous cyst - the size of my thumb! - was removed from my back and placed in a medical jar. I was shocked! I had no idea!The second cyst was the size of a marble, and a third cyst, located on my left forearm, which I thought was a weird looking mole, but no, no, no - it was a cyst the size of a 1-inch ball bearing! My jaw dropped in disbelief.Because Dr Hakita Shandu did such an excellent job sewing me up, my wounds have closed completely now and there is no scarring. There is still some discoloration around the wounds, but I plan on buying the Post Care Silicone Gel when I go back next week for a follow-up appointment.I’m also seriously considering the monthly subscription for a hydro facial. It sounds wonderful and very relaxing.Dr Hakita Shandu is a very nice person with a gentle touch. I would strongly recommend Shandu Dermatology for any skin care needs. The entire staff is very nice, and they made me feel very much at ease. It’s like the tv show Cheers! - “where everyone knows your name”Thank you very much, Dr Hakita Shandu! You're the best!Morris Lee FeasterPalmdale, CA
Everyone is nice and welcoming and understanding. Michelle is so awesome, I been going to her for years. Honestly they are all amazing people
Doctors and Staff and Products are the Best in the Valley! Been a Patient well over 25yrs ! Highly recommend Dr Sandhu Dermatologist
The girls are terrified, very professional
I had my procedure today with Ashley and Dr. Sandhu, I felt NOTHING. Not even the syringe that Ashley used to numb me before the full removal of my mole. Ashley made sure I was comfortable and was able to talk me through the prep process. Dr. Sandhu was so quick with the procedure I couldn’t even think to feel anything. I am still going to get a biopsy and 6 week follow up. But I am highly satisfied with the progress. I did peak under my bandaid and I’m glad to no longer see an abnormal mole! Thank you Dr. Sandhu and team!_______________________________________________I had my first mole check-up with Dr. Sandhu and Amanda, and I was truly impressed by the entire experience. From start to finish, the appointment process was smooth and easy. Both Dr. Sandhu and Amanda were professional, kind, and extremely knowledgeable, which helped put me at ease right away.Unfortunately, the mole in question appeared abnormal, so I have a follow-up appointment scheduled for a shave and biopsy. While I’m definitely hoping and praying for a benign result, I feel confident knowing I’m in such capable hands.As a cash patient, I also really appreciated the clear and reasonable pricing—no surprises, just honest care. I’m very grateful for their support and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for attentive and thorough dermatologic care.

Chemical Peel FAQ
How much does a chemical peel cost?
Once we've developed your personalized chemical peel treatment plan, we can discuss your specific costs during your consultation. Pricing can vary depending on the type of chemical peel you choose. Our team accepts various payment options, and we frequently offer specials on skin treatments like chemical peels. Purchasing a package with multiple treatments can also help you save money.
What level should I choose for my chemical peel?
The ideal chemical peel depends on your unique skin concerns and aesthetic goals. During your consultation, we'll help you determine which formula best suits your skin. Factors to consider include your overall health, skin type, the depth of your skin concerns, the amount of recovery time you can commit to, and your desired results. For first-time patients, starting with a lighter peel is often a good option to gauge the results before adjusting your treatment plan for future sessions.
Should I get a chemical peel or dermabrasion treatment?
Will my face hurt after a chemical peel?
The level of discomfort you may experience depends on the type of peel used. Light peels typically cause only mild stinging, which can be eased with a cooling fan. Medium and deep peels, while offering more dramatic results, can involve greater discomfort. To ensure your comfort, we can apply numbing cream, soothing ointments, or other skin-calming treatments. We'll also provide detailed post-treatment care instructions to help maintain your results and support a smooth recovery.
Can I combine a chemical peel with other treatments?
Absolutely! Many patients choose to combine chemical peels with other nonsurgical skin treatments for enhanced results. During your consultation, be sure to share your skincare goals so we can design a personalized treatment plan. Options like injectable wrinkle treatments can be paired with your chemical peel to further rejuvenate and refresh your appearance.
