Chemical Peels at Her Secret MedSpa
Refined Skin Renewal Through Controlled Exfoliation
Looking to brighten dull skin, even out tone, soften fine lines, or manage breakouts—without invasive procedures or prolonged recovery? At Her Secret MedSpa in Mamaroneck, NY, we offer medical-grade chemical peels, professional exfoliation treatments that promote healthier cellular turnover and radiant skin.
Our approach is medically supervised, highly personalized, and deliberately conservative—prioritizing barrier respect and gradual, authentic results that enhance your natural beauty.
Our guiding principle: Support the skin’s renewal process safely and sustainably, under expert medical guidance.
Every treatment starts with our required two-step consultation: a welcoming GTKY (Get To Know You) session to discuss your goals and lifestyle, followed by a clinical consultation and good faith exam led by a licensed medical provider. This confirms safety, candidacy, and the ideal peel type/strength—in strict compliance with New York State regulations for medical procedures.
What Are Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels are medical-grade treatments using controlled acids or compounds to exfoliate damaged surface layers, accelerate cell turnover, and reveal fresher, smoother skin underneath.
Depending on depth and formulation, they can address:
- Uneven tone, hyperpigmentation, or sun damage
- Dullness and rough texture
- Fine lines and early aging signs
- Acne, congestion, or breakout-prone skin
We focus on skin health—choosing peels that deliver visible refresh without barrier compromise.
A mandatory two-step consultation (GTKY + clinical good faith exam) determines the right peel and complies with New York State medical oversight requirements.
Chemical Peel Types & Applications
Peel type, strength, and protocol are customized during your clinical assessment based on skin type, concerns, tolerance, and goals.
Superficial Chemical Peels
Gentle refresh for brightness, mild texture issues, or acne maintenance. Minimal to no downtime; ideal for series or upkeep.
Medium-Depth Chemical Peels
Deeper action for pigmentation, fine lines, and visible concerns. Moderate downtime possible (flaking/peeling); spaced strategically.
Customized or Combination Protocols
Layered or tailored approaches for optimal results—provider-determined only after evaluation.
Customization is medical-provider-led. Results vary; no guarantees.
How to Prepare & Care for Chemical Peels

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do chemical peel results last?
Weeks to months with diligent skincare and SPF; series and maintenance extend benefits significantly.

Mild tingling, warmth, or stinging during application—subsides quickly. Comfort measures available.
How much downtime is involved?
Superficial: Minimal (slight redness). Medium: 3–7 days of flaking/peeling. We tailor to your schedule.
When will I see results?
Brightness often in days; texture/tone improvements build over weeks with a series.
Why is a consultation required?
New York State classifies medical-grade/dermal chemical peels as medical procedures. Regulations mandate a good faith exam by a licensed provider (physician, PA, or NP under supervision) for health review, risk assessment, candidacy, and safe plan—ensuring compliance and patient safety.
Can chemical peels be combined with other treatments?
Yes—often with microneedling, Hydrafacial, or others for enhanced results, but only if appropriate per consultation.
What’s the cost?
Varies by peel type, depth, add-ons, and series; full transparent pricing shared at consultation.
Are chemical peels safe for all skin types?
Yes, when medically selected and supervised—effective across tones, with low risk of issues like hyperpigmentation if protocols are followed.
What are common side effects or risks?
Temporary redness, peeling, dryness, or sensitivity. Rare: irritation or prolonged redness—minimized with our sterile, provider-led approach and aftercare.
Are there contraindications?
Yes—active infections, open wounds, recent isotretinoin use, certain medications, pregnancy, or keloid tendencies. Full screening during the exam.
What about at-home chemical peels?
Over-the-counter options are superficial and lower-risk but inconsistent, with potential for burns/irritation if misused. Professional medical-grade peels offer superior safety, customization, and results.
How long does a session take?
Typically 30–60 minutes, including prep, application, neutralization, and post-care review.
How often for maintenance?
After the initial series, every 4–8 weeks or seasonally—customized to your skin’s response and goals.
