Absolutely Glowing! My Amazing Facial and Peel Experience at Evolve spa RidgewoodI recently treated myself to a facial and peel at Evolve , and I am absolutely thrilled with the results! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was so relaxing and welcoming. The staff were incredibly friendly and professional, making me feel comfortable and well-cared for.My esthetician, Annette was fantastic! They took the time to understand my skin concerns and goals, and explained the entire process of both the facial and the peel in detail. I really appreciated their knowledge and expertise, which put me at ease.The facial itself was pure bliss. Every step felt luxurious and tailored to my needs. The cleansing, massage, and mask were all incredibly soothing, and I left feeling refreshed and pampered.The peel was the perfect. Annette made sure I was comfortable throughout. The sensation was manageable, and I knew I was in good hands.And the results? Wow! My skin is absolutely glowing.

I received the hydrafacial and it was a great first experience (never received any type of facial before). I also opted out of the chemical peel and instead received the Vit C boost serum. I had Brittany and she was knowledgeable and super friendly. The only thing I would recommend to improve on is the explanation of the different facials. When first explained what the facials entailed, it seemed almost as something was getting injected, but the hydrafacial specifically is basically a water suctioning tool that gets brushed against your face and serum gets placed on the skin. It removes all the dead skin on your face. I would definitely recommend coming here and would go again!

Great Work

This was my first time to evolve. I had a terrible breakout after some hormonal treatments prior to an egg retrieval and could not control my skin. Brittany was very welcoming and empathetic. She was very knowledgeable and offered many suggestions for a new skin care routine. The VI peel definitely changed my skin and I am so glad I did it. Looking forward to another peel in the near future.

I've already had my second chemical peel at Evolve Med Spa, with Lis. The results after the first procedure were amazing " my skin became smoother, glowing, and refreshed. Lis is a true professional in her field: attentive, thorough, explains every step of the procedure, and gives helpful aftercare tips. I am very happy with the results and already recommend Evolve Med Spa to anyone who wants to improve their skin. The spa atmosphere is very pleasant, and the staff is caring and experienced.

Have been going there for few years now and I'm always happy with my results. Have used them for tox, facials, peels, and hair removal. Their staff is all educated on best procedures and products, the front desk is so kind and doesn't treat you as just any other customer, and they even have parking in the back which if you know ridgewood is such a benefit in itself

Evolve is AMAZING. I’ve never had a provider who truly cares, is thorough, and goes above and beyond the way that she does. I came for chemical peels and facials and got SO much more. My provider spent time really analyzing my skin needs and came up with an entire skincare routine. The facials are heavenly, they take the time to make it a relaxing experience.

    Frequently Asked Questions about Chemical Peels

    What is a chemical peel?

    A chemical peel is a skin resurfacing treatment in which a chemical solution is applied to the face, neck, or hands to exfoliate the outer layers of skin. As the treated skin peels away over several days, it is replaced by newer, smoother, and more evenly toned skin underneath. Chemical peels are used to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and uneven skin texture. They are available in three depths: superficial, medium, and deep.

    How much does a chemical peel cost?

    At Evolve Med Spa Chemical peels start at $125 per session. Treatments are available as single sessions or as packages for patients completing a course of multiple peels. The final cost depends on the type and depth of peel recommended, the size of the treatment area, and your individual skincare goals. Your esthetician will provide a personalised recommendation at the time of your appointment.At

    What does a chemical peel do to your skin?

    A chemical peel removes the outer layers of damaged skin by applying an acid solution that breaks down the bonds between dead skin cells, causing controlled exfoliation. As the treated skin peels away over several days, the body replaces it with fresh, new skin that is smoother, more evenly toned, and more radiant. Deeper peels also stimulate collagen production in the dermis, improving skin firmness and reducing the appearance of lines and scars over time.

    What skin concerns can chemical peels address?

    Chemical peels are wonderfully versatile for treating a range of skin concerns. They are highly effective in addressing uneven pigmentation, improving skin texture, smoothing away fine lines and wrinkles, and promoting an overall clearer, more even skin tone. They can be tailored to address mild imperfections as well as concerns like sun damage.

    Are chemical peels right for me?

    Chemical peels work best for you if:

    You’re suited for the specific peel: Mild to medium peels work well for people who have mild skin concerns or imperfections that they need to treat since the aesthetician can adjust the chemical composition to best suit their needs. Deep peels are suited for more medical conditions like sun damage or extensive aging.

    You’re willing to go through multiple treatments: Except for deep peels, chemical peels aren’t a permanent solution. If you want to keep the results from your chemical peels consistent throughout your life, you should be prepared to commit time and effort to keep up with a chemical peel schedule.

    You’re willing to experience some downtime.

    What are the different types of chemical peels?

    Light Chemical Peel – A Vitalize peel or any peel that uses salicylic acid or alpha hydroxy acid is classified as a light peel, which means that it only penetrates the topmost layer of your skin. A mild peel works best to treat acne, dry skin, uneven skin tone, and other mild skin conditions that require light exfoliation.

    Medium Chemical Peel – The Vi peel, TCA peel, and glycolic acid peel penetrate more layers of your skin, though it’s just slightly stronger than a light peel in potency. They’re particularly effective on wrinkles, scarring, and other discolorations in the skin.

    Deep Chemical Peel – Usually done as a phenol peel, the deeper peel of this procedure reaches right to the middle layer of your skin, often requiring anesthetic or painkillers. This is only done to address deep lines and wrinkles, traumatic scarring, or possible cancerous growth deeper inside the skin.

    SkinMedica Illuminize Peel – This is a light peel that addresses the visible skin imperfections that result from skin aging and sun exposure, such as fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone and texture. There is no expected downtime after this peel.

    SkinMedica Vitalize Peel – This peel offers a dramatic improvement in skin texture and tone. It also stimulates collagen production, improves pigmentation, acne, and melasma.

    SkinMedica Rejuvenize – This is the deepest penetrating peel that aggressively treats sun damage, melasma, acne scarring, fine wrinkles and pigmentary changes. Because of the penetration, clients can experience downtime with peeling.

    What is the aftercare for Chemical Peels?
    • Do not get Botox or dermal fillers 24 hours before a peel. However, you can have a chemical peel and then Botox on the same day
    • Avoid any active ingredients (such as retinol, retinoid, glycolic, salicylic acids, benzoyl peroxide, alpha or beta hydroxy acids, astringents and Vitamin C) to your face for 7 days before treatment. If your skin is irritated please contact our office at least 24 hours prior to appointment to reschedule
    • Avoid working out day of peel and 24 post peel applications
    • For Skinmedica peel don’t cleanse for skin for 6 hours post the peel
    • For Vi Peel dont cleanse your skin for 4 hours and follow the post care sheets provided by Vi peel
    • Do not wax, tweeze, or use depilatory creams
    • Avoid artificial tanning and sun exposure 2 weeks prior to scheduled treatment
    How do I prepare for Chemical Peels?
    • Limit sun exposure and use sunscreen regularly for at least two weeks before the treatment to prevent increased sensitivity.
    • Stop using retinoids, exfoliants, or any other potentially irritating skincare products about 5-7 days before the peel.
    • Keep your skin well-moisturized leading up to the treatment to enhance its resilience.
    • Refrain from waxing or shaving the treatment area for at least one week before the procedure.
    • Cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding
    Is the chemical peel procedure painful?

    During a chemical peel, you might experience sensations such as tingling, warmth, or a mild stinging, depending on the type and depth of the peel. Most clients find the experience tolerable, and these sensations are temporary, subsiding quickly as the peel works its magic.
