As the skin ages, it loses its youthful tone, texture and glow. The skin becomes thinner, with age discolorations and wrinkles, changing the overall complexion. One way to achieve younger-looking skin is with facial chemical peels. Our team at Maia Plastic Surgery in Tysons Corner, VA, offers medical-grade facial chemical peels to maintain a more youthful appearance and healthy skin at any age.

What Is a Chemical Peel?

The skin cells are continually dying and changing, impacting the skin’s appearance. Exfoliation can remove the top layer of dead skin cells, but to remove and refresh skin at a deeper level, the top skin cells need to be gently removed. A chemical peel uses enzymes and natural acids to break down old skin cells and reveal new, fresh skin. This can also induce more collagen production to heal the skin, creating a firmer, smoother appearance. Facial chemical peels can help minimize or treat the following skin flaws:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Age spots
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Acne and other scars
  • Dull skin
  • Sun damage

Chemical peels are available in different grades and intensities. A mild chemical peel can be used to improve the glow or refresh the skin. For more severe skin flaws, a higher grade or more intense formula is needed. The recovery time depends on the depth of skin cells removed. More intense chemical peels can require several days for the skin to heal; mild chemical peels have little or no downtime after the procedure.

Facial chemical peel treatments can be used at all stages of life to improve the health and appearance of the skin. If you want to rejuvenate your skin and diminish flaws for younger-looking skin, contact us at Maia Plastic Surgery. We offer a wide variety of med spa treatments like facial chemical peels that can help you achieve your best look at any age.

When I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had a consultation with Dr. Maia, not only was her expertise evident, her compassion shown through as she walked us through the process. Thankfully, I felt very comfortable trusting her as I underwent reconstruction surgery. I am very happy with the results and highly respect and recommend Dr. Maia.

Dr Maia truly loves what she does. She is invested in making you the version of yourself you want to be. She listens attentively to what you want and makes relevant suggestions. She did not try to introduce anything unnecessary into my treatment plan. The results I achieved during my first treatment keeps me coming back. Her staff is excellent and works to accommodate your schedule. I have recommended Dr. Maia several times and each time I get the same positive feedback.

Selecting a surgeon: After having two children and weight fluctuations over the years I was left with complete loss of volume in my breasts. I had four consultations with other surgeons but after comparing their photos to Dr Maia’s and meeting her in person, I knew she was my doctor. We talked about my lifestyle - being a mom and a professional, I didn’t want to be too big, but I’m curvy so I didn’t want to go too small for my frame either. She let me try on sizes and once I selected she agreed it was a good fit for my frame. Post op recovery: I was a smoker and had quit prior to surgery but she was very honest and adamant in telling me how important it was that I did not smoke. (I honestly needed the lecture and the transparency about what could happen if I did start smoking before surgery and post-op.) Because I was formerly a pretty heavy smoker, it did cause some issues after surgery with wound closing and she was SO diligent and on top of it seeing me once and week and squeezing me in for appointments between surgeries and patients. She prescribed different things to address the would closure issues before they really became a problem. Being able to have text message access to the office was great when I had questions and she even accommodated my schedule when I couldn’t be seen in person to send progress photos so that she could check on me. 3 months post op: I’m so happy with the results of my surgery and am so glad I waited to find the right doctor. She’s an artist! They look natural, fit my body shape and they haven’t even fully “dropped and fluffed” yet. Would highly recommend… comparing her patient photos to other surgeons will end your search. I feel so much better in my body thanks to Dr Maia.

This is my second time at Dr. Maia’s office and I am so pleased with my experience here. The staff is so friendly and caring. Dr. Maia is the best Dr in the DMV area, she knows exactly what she is doing and you will be happy with the results! I am so glad I found her! I recommend anyone who’s looking for a very personable doctor to come and see her! Thank you Dr. Maia & staff!
