ERASE FINE LINES AND WRINKLES
Chemical Peels Atlanta, GA
Say goodbye to tired and dull-looking skin and achieve the youthfulness you deserve with one of a variety of chemical peels we offer to treat acne, fine wrinkles, minor skin discoloration, and sun damage. A skincare professional at MetroDerm will recommend a peel that meets your skin care needs:
Salicylic Acid Peel
A salicylic acid peel encourages the shedding of skin and shrinks pores. It is ideal for patients whi have oily skin, because it is fat and oil soluble, which gives it more penetrative power. Salicylic acid also provides marked improvements in skin tone, texture, and clarity for acne sufferers while lightening surface scarring. Because of its anti-inflammatory properties, salicylic acid works well for those with sensitive skin. The benefits of this peel include:
- Loosening and removal of aging cells, oils, and debris
- Stimulation of new skin cell production
- Increase in collagen formation
- Penetration and cleansing of sebum-filled follicles and pores
- Encouragement of softer, smoother, and more supple skin
Jessner Peel
The Jessner is used to treat normal to oily skin, acne, and sun-damaged skin. It is generally considered a medium-level peel containing 14% of each acid, salicylic, lactic, and resorcinol. The depth of this peel is determined by the number of layers applied during application and the tolerance level of the skin. It is recommended that new users begin with one to three layers for a light or medium peel. Generally, four to six layers will result in a medium to deep peel and secven to eight layers can result in a deep peel. The distinct blend of acids work in synergy to combat hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and rough texture to reveal vibrant glowing skin.
The Jessner solution may make your skin become red and take on a frosting appearance during application. In some cases, the skin will have a temporary anesthesia or numbing effect. The skin may appear red or dark for several days while recovering. Breakouts may also occur after peeling. This reaction is normal, and the breakout is due to the pores cleansing and bringing debris to the surface. Your skin should begin to balance out within a few weeks, leading to clearer and less oily skin. Downtime will vary depending on how many layers are applied.
The Jessner is suitable for most skin types and has the following benefits:
- Improved skin tone, texture, and clarity
- Reduction of acne, clogged pores, shallow wrinkles, and fine lines
- Increase in collagen and elastin production
Each patient is unique; therefore, results may vary.

TESTIMONIALS
“Dr. Neckman came highly recommended by my wife, and I was a little nervous on my first visit. She made me feel very comfortable and almost like a sister was looking out for her brother. She explained everything very well and took care of me with speed and compassion. Couldn’t recommend a dermatologist more.”
“I have been going to Dr. Alford for several years. She is great! She is so pleasant and listens to any concerns you may have. She is thorough and professional. I always look forward to seeing her. If you’re looking for a great dermatologist, I highly recommend Dr. Alford.”
“Dr. Pearl and her staff are amazing. I can’t speak highly enough about them all.”
“I’ve been a patient of Dr. Garvey for a little more than six months. She has provided me relief from a serious varicose vein issue. I couldn’t be happier or more impressed with her knowledge, skill, and bedside manner. She has my highest recommendation. Her nurse, Eulene, and office manager, Chris, are also wonderful. Thanks to Dr. Garvey and team!”
“I have always had the best of care from Dr. Niren. I’ve been going to her since 1986, and I have nothing but praise for her professionalism and the time she spends with me.”
“Dr. Papadopoulos did a wonderful job on my recent surgical procedure on my arm. He made me feel at ease and explained everything to me in terms that I could understand. He was precise and succinct during the surgery, and my recovery could not have gone any smoother. I highly recommend Dr. Papadopoulos for any and all skin cancer surgery.”
“Dr. McClure has no peer in his field. Apart from his incredible skill as a surgeon, he is also wise and compassionate, too. He knows when it’s the right thing to do nothing. I would not be alive today were it not for his treatment of my melanoma years ago. My wife and I trust him more than any other doctor whom we have ever known.”
“Dr. Berghoff has been my doctor for years and has identified and repaired significant skin issues on several occasions that could have resulted in serious health issues. I always leave his office feeling like I know what my skin health is!”
“I’ve been Dr. Kim’s patient for over 10 years and she is amazing! I recommend her to everyone and am grateful for the care and compassion she has shown me. Unfortunately, because of my skin, I see her a lot, but she makes visits and procedures as stress free as possible.”
