Do you feel like your skin needs a little boost beyond your regular skincare regimen? The ZO 3-step peel could be just what you need: a medical-grade, long-lasting skin treatment that refreshes and rejuvenates your face.

What is the ZO 3-Step Peel?

The ZO 3-step peel is a high-end skin treatment that smooths, tightens, and improves the pigment and texture of the skin. This peel provides visible results well beyond what you get with most peels, plus antioxidant and anti-irritant protection. Since the ingredients are medical grade, you can only get this peel through a qualified medical provider.

Our patients love the refreshed glow and healthier-looking skin they experience after a ZO peel. We often see benefits like:

  • Improved acne

  • Reduced sun damage/ Hyperpigmentation

  • Diminished wrinkles and fine lines

  • Softer, smoother, and brighter skin texture

  • Smaller pores

  • Improved skin barrier function

  • Anti-inflammation benefits

  • Antioxidant protection

  • DNA repair

The ZO 3-step peel is both safe and highly effective for all skin types and colors. If you are looking to refresh and rejuvenate the appearance of your skin and face, we recommend giving it a try! We Will first get you on your GSR pre skin care treatment to condition the skin for your peel, 4-6 weeks prior to peel treatment.

What is in the ZO peel?

The 3-step peel uses a combination of exfoliants, retinol, and multi-action agents to produce visible skin results. There are three essential products involved, two of which you can only get through a medical provider:

  • The Peel Solution is a blend of salicylic acid, trichloroacetic acid, and lactic acid that removes the epidermis’ outer layers. It also includes saponins to minimize skin reactions and glycerin to improve hydration.

  • The Retinol Créme uses a 6% concentration of retinol and other ingredients to boost the peel solution and provide collagen stimulation, cellular renewal, antioxidant benefits, and DNA protection.

  • The Hydrating Créme relieves skin irritation and redness following the procedure while adding moisture and improving the skin’s barrier function.

The Hydrating Créme is one of the most critical parts of the peel process because it aids in skin recovery — something we all need, but especially while recovering a peel! It is also the only product of the set that can be purchased alone.

How Long Does It Take for ZO Skin Peels to Work?

The ZO 3-step peel works quickly, but there is some initial downtime. Most patients find that their skin peels for about five days beginning on the second or third day following the peel procedure. As the peeling clears up, you will see beautiful new skin emerge.

Can you see results after one peel?

Yes, you should see results after your first peel! Patients often find that their post-peel skin looks better than it has in years, with fewer breakouts and less noticeable fine lines. The renewed skin should feel stronger, healthier, and less sensitive.

We usually recommend that patients repeat the peel 2-3 times per year to maintain their desired appearance. Specially when dealing with discoloration. For the best results, we want you to start on a ZO daily skin care program tailored to your skin type at least 4-6 weeks before getting the peel.

After ZO 3-Step Peel

After a 3-step peel, patients usually experience a significant improvement in skin tone and texture. You may also see reduced wrinkles and fine lines, smaller pores, and diminished sun damage if these were issues in your skin.
