Facial Chemical Peels

For people with acne scars, deep wrinkles, and stubborn age spots that need advanced correction, Garcia Plastic Surgery offers the Obagi Blue Peel® System. After pre-treating your skin with the Obagi Nu-Derm® System for 6 to 8 weeks, the Blue Peel can be performed as an outpatient procedure in less than one hour, without any sedation. You will continue to use Obagi Nu-Derm products to maximize the effect of the Blue Peel.

Serving Glens Falls and Saratoga Springs, cosmetic surgeon Dr. Juan C. Garcia offers plastic surgery at Glens Falls Hospital, Saratoga Hospital, or Saratoga Surgery Center. He also performs minor cosmetic procedures like facial chemical peels at his office on Park Street in Glens Falls. Request a consultation today.

What's It All About?

Many skin blemishes and signs of aging can be improved with Obagi Blue Peel.

  • Unlike most peels which offer a one-size-fits-all approach, Obagi Blue Peel can be tailored for your skin needs, removing only damaged skin layers to increase comfort and speed recovery time.
  • Treatment is performed by Dr. Garcia, a board-certified plastic surgeon, at his Glens Falls office in one hour or less.
  • The effects of Obagi Blue Peel are enhanced and preserved by the use of Obagi Nu-Derm both before and after treatment, helping your skin to look radiant and refreshed.

Your Facial Chemical Peel

The Obagi Blue Peel System uses Trichloracetic Acid (TCA) combined with a patented blue tint glycerine base which assists Dr. Garcia in evenly distributing the peel cream. After treatment, your face will be initially very red, slightly swollen, and somewhat tender, with a blue tint. Gradually, the redness and the blue tone fade as old skin cells are shed, revealing fresh, more vibrant skin beneath. With little down time, your skin is noticeably smoother, fresher, firmer, and clearer. After a few days you can return to work and your regular routine with a rejuvenated look and outlook.

If you're interested in improving your skin's overall health, request your consultation online with Dr. Garcia or call Garcia Plastic Surgery in Glens Falls at 518.793.0475 or 518.761.2347.
