How Chicago Blogger Meghan McAllister Achieves a Healthy Glow with Glytone Chemical Peel

Recently, we had Chicago lifestyle blogger Meghan McAllister come into Lapiel to try out a Glytone Chemical Peel. Meghan had never had a chemical peel before but was open to the idea – which we love!

We get it – the name “chemical peel” sounds a bit scary and people still have some hesitance trying one out. We love having first-timers in the office, like Meghan, to show them just how effective (and gentle!) Glytone peels can be and how they require little to no downtime.

Here’s what Meghan has to say about it:

“What’s great about Glytone’s chemical peels specifically is that they’re super quick, easy and have no social downtime like most others. They’re often called “lunchtime peels” because women can go get one on their lunch break and don’t have to worry about dealing with very much redness or peeling. Gone are the days of fearing chemical peels!”

Meghan already had beautiful, clear skin, so our awesome aesthetician Julie chose to apply a Mandelic Glytone chemical peel that would eliminate any texture she had left on her face and also give her a healthy, radiant GLOW! (Remember — Glytone has a range of chemical peels – all with unique ingredients and purposes.)

Here are Meghan’s thoughts after getting her first Glytone peel:

Immediately after the chemical peel, my skin felt tighter, the texture on my cheeks was completely gone and most of all, I looked SUPER glowy and dewy! Just what I wanted. After this experience, I would most certainly recommend everyone goes and tries out a chemical peel, at least once! I never thought I would want to get them regularly, but now I’m obsessed with how my skin looks. I don’t even think I need foundation or concealer and I’ve never felt that way before!”

September Specials Are All About The Peels

Fall is here and we’re here to help you set the reset button on your skin, step up your facial game and get your skin ready for Chicago temps.

Revive Your Skin This Fall With Our New Favorite Skin Care Duo

Silkpeel Diamond Glow and Glytone Chemical Peels

Take your Silkpeel Treatments to the next level with a Glytone Chemical Peel for faster, more effective results in fewer treatments. Whether you’re dealing with acne, fine lines or hyperpigmentation this signature combo will help accelerate your results and leave your skin glowing after just one treatment.

Read on to find out if this new service is right for you!

Why We Love The Combo

As many of our clients know we have long preached the benefits of alternating both these amazing treatments. What we found after years of creating customized treatments for our clients was that in some cases, our clients were looking for a treatment that combined the best of both services: Physical & Chemical Exfolation. Combining our two signature skin care services allowed for deeper penetration of the chemical peel. The results? Radiant skin and big changes in a shorter amount time!  After months of practicing with our own staff and friends, we developed safe, completely personalized treatment protocol for some of our client’s most pressing concerns: Acne, Hyperpigmentation and Fine Lines.

Is There Downtime?

Unlike both the Chemical Peels and the Diamond Glow treatments, there is some downtime associated with combinging both treatments. However, peeling is limited and typically starts 1-2 days post treatment and lasts 3-7 days if at all. Mostly, you’ll noticed increased “dryness” as the skin starts to shed, which can be improved with the use of a heavy moisturizer.

How much?

Add any Glytone Chemical Peel to your Silkpeel Diamond Glow Treatment for $75.

That’s 50% off the cost of doing a regular peel!

How Often?

Depending on the desired results, we typically recommend a series of three sessions spaced every 5-6 for best results.

 

Important Notes Beforehand

  • Discontinue the use of retinols and retinoids a least a week before your visit
  • Limit sun exposure both 1 week before and 1 week after your visit

For The Teens

Make breakouts a thing of the past for your teen!  From now until October 15th you can add our new Acne Advanced Salcylic Peel to any Teen Facial for just $50.  Read all about this exciting new launch HERE.

Talking About Glytone Chemical Peels and Acne with Blogger Emma Lenhart

Dealing with acne is hard, dealing with problem skin in a world full of perfect instagram posts can be even more difficult. Which is why we are loving that Blogger Emma Lenhart was brave enough to share her struggle with acne and how Glytone Chemical Peels here at Lapiel helped her skin and left her feeling a whole lot more confident!

Whether you’re someone who struggles with acne, has been thinking about starting a regimen of Glytone Chemical Peels or maybe have a teen at home who’s struggling with problem skin, Emma’s post is sure to resonate with you.

Check out our favorite excerpts from her post at EmmaLenhart.com

Why Chemical Peels?

I have had acne-prone, oily, hormonal skin for my entire life. Not the controllable, “once every blue moon” type of acne. The really painful, annoying, kind.

Growing up, I tried almost everything on the market. If you can name a brand, I bet you I’ve already tried their 3-step system. I invested so much time and money into trying to “fix” my skin. I visited dermatologists for years, tried every topical solution they gave me, and even started ingesting oral pills to help my skin.

Nothing worked.

Lapiel Chemical Peels featured on West of Felicity

 

Meet Allison of the blog West of Felicity! We recently got to know this amazing lady as she embarked on a plan to kick her skin care routine up a notch by adding a few corrective steps to her regimen. After consulting with Julie, she decided to start with a package of Glytone Chemical Peels here at Lapiel. We all know that peels can often times feel scary, out of reach or take you back to that infamous episode of Sex And The City where Samantha looses half her face. Check out Alison’s post and see the reality of what it’s like to get a peel in 2017. We promise– only happy, healthy, glowing skin at the end of these peels!

 

Read about her experience with chemical peels, products and how she found Lapiel here.

Some of our favorite highlights from Allison’s post

On why she decided to add  a professional treatment to her routine:

“I wish I had the maturity to think ahead when I was younger and consider the skin of my future 20, 30 or 50 year old self. I’m sure just like many of you, nothing was more important than soaking up those beautiful rays of sunshine. To the naked eye, my skin looks normal for a 20 something woman (hopefully). But, I know what it has endured, so I know what’s lying just below the surface and slowly making its way up to say “I told you so.”

That’s why I have this corrective step. I’ll never see the supple, smooth, healthy skin I want if I don’t take the steps to correct the damage of my younger years. So, I’m kicking up my routine and working toward a clean slate, where my products will be more efficient and my skin will have the healthy youthful glow it deserves.”

Allison did a series of three peels and offers up some really amazing before and afters on her post. She describes her experience with 2 of our post popular kinds of peels and lets you know what to expect from each.

 

On Protecting your Skin:

“This is probably the most important way to influence your skins health and appearance. The pollutants in the air and harsh rays of our beloved sun take a serious toll on our skin. It was always hard for me to take serious because you can’t see the effects…yet. I have to remind myself that the tan fades but the wrinkle and spots settle in for years to come.

 

SUNSCREEN FUN FACTS

20 SPF protects for 2 hours
30 SPF protects for 3 hours
50 SPF only protects 5% more than 30 SPF, and still only lasts 3 hours…
REAPPLY!”
