Quick Answer
Chemical peels in Austin at Banyan & Bamboo use medical-grade acids to resurface the skin, address hyperpigmentation, smooth texture, and stimulate collagen. Our Glow & Go peel starts at $150 with minimal downtime. Peel strength is customized based on your skin type, concerns, and tolerance.
Who Is This Treatment For?
Concern: Hyperpigmentation, sun damage, uneven skin tone, acne scarring, rough texture, or dull skin that needs more than a standard facial can deliver.
Skin Type: Peel selection is customized to your Fitzpatrick skin type. Deeper skin tones require a different acid profile to avoid post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation — we account for this in every treatment plan.
Downtime: Light peels (Glow & Go) have minimal downtime — mild flaking for 3–5 days. Medium-depth peels involve 5–7 days of peeling. We will set clear expectations at your consultation.
Timing: Fall and winter are ideal for peels in Austin — lower UV exposure means faster healing and better results. Summer peels are possible with strict sun protection.
The Perfect Derma Peel in Austin
There are a lot of chemical peels out there. Most of them are variations on the same formula. The Perfect Derma Peel is genuinely different, and the difference comes down to one ingredient: glutathione.
Glutathione is the only master antioxidant your body produces naturally, and it's the reason this peel can deliver medium-depth results while being safe for every skin tone, including deeper complexions that most peels can't touch without risk.
The application takes about 15 minutes. You go home with a full post-care kit. Peeling starts around day 3 and resolves by day 7. By the end of the week, most clients see a visible difference in tone, texture refinement, and clarity. For many skin concerns, one treatment is enough to see real results. Pair with our AI 3D Skin Analysis to map your exact concerns before treatment.

Is This Right for You?
What to Expect
Knowing what to expect makes the whole experience easier. Here's exactly what happens.
Your skin looks normal. You might feel some tightness or mild tingling. Most clients go about their day completely normally.
This is when the magic starts. Your skin will begin to peel, starting around the mouth and chin. It looks dramatic, but it's exactly what's supposed to happen. Do not pick or pull.
By the end of the week, most of the peeling is done. Your skin is fresh, smooth, and noticeably brighter. Some clients see full results even faster.
This is when you really see it. Pigmentation is lighter, texture is smoother, skin tone is more even. The collagen stimulation continues working for weeks after.
