(Exfoliating Gel with Salicylic Acid Gel, Ascorbic Acid, Green Tea Extract & Other Antioxidants)The Miami Peel® S-30 is a proven superficial peel formulation, containing Salicylic Acid , Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), Green Tea Extract and other Antioxidants. It effectively exfoliates and removes dead skin cells, helps stimulate the renewal of the skin, diminishes the appearance of pores and helps lighten and even the skin tone. The Miami Peel® S-30 formula is for all those who want to achieve a more youthful and even skin tone and is very beneficial as part of a Physician supervised program to improve the appearance of acne/oily skin, photo-aging, sun damage and pigment discoloration of any kind. Please contact your physician to see if the Miami Peel® S-30 is right for you.
Q: What are the benefits of Salicylic Acid?
A: Salicylic Acid helps regulate oil production and unclog pores, making it ideal for acne-prone and oily skin. Its anti-inflammatory properties also assist in fading post-acne marks and reducing the appearance of dark spots, making it a valuable part of your physician’s acne management protocol.
Q: How does the Miami Peel® S-30 exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin?
A: The Miami Peel® S-30 gently lifts away the outer layer of dead skin, triggering natural cell renewal. This process smooths rough texture, softens fine lines, improves sun-damaged skin, and helps even out pigmentation. It’s also effective in reducing acne-related discoloration and dark spots caused by injury or surgery.
Q: What active ingredients support exfoliation and rejuvenation?
A: The formula combines powerful yet skin-friendly ingredients:
- Salicylic Acid (Beta Hydroxy Acid): Exfoliates, purifies pores, smooths texture
- Green Tea Extract: Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory protection
- Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid): Brightens and helps protect from free radical damage
- Retinyl Palmitate, Witch Hazel, Cucumber, and Orange Oil: Support skin clarity and balance
These ingredients work synergistically to refine skin tone, reduce inflammation, and restore a radiant glow.
Q: How many treatments are recommended?
A: A typical treatment plan includes 6–8 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart, for optimal long-term results. Your provider will customize a regimen based on your skin type and goals.
Q: Is there any downtime after a Miami Peel® S-30?
A: Downtime is minimal. You may experience slight redness and light flaking for a few days. Most clients resume daily activities immediately—as long as they avoid excessive heat or sun exposure and apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ (we recommend Q-Sunshade™ SPF 30). Never pick at flaking skin—let it slough off naturally.
Q: When will peeling start, and how much should I expect?
A: Most people begin to experience mild flaking between day 2 and day 3 post-treatment. Light to moderate exfoliation may continue for up to 5–6 days. The intensity can vary depending on your skin’s sensitivity and previous peel history.
Q –What skin types can benefit from the Miami Peel®?
A –Miami Peel® treatments are appropriate for almost all skin types. These treatments are well tolerated and proven effective in years use, including the darkest skin types IV and V. They are especially helpful for improving the appearance of sun damaged / photo-aged skin, hyperpigmented skin, aging wrinkled skin, and mature adult oily/acne prone skin.
Q: How does Miami Peel® S-30 compare to Glycolic Acid peels?
A: Unlike Glycolic Acid, which can over-dry and irritate the skin with prolonged use, the Miami Peel® S-30 is formulated with Salicylic Acid, Vitamin C, and antioxidants that are gentler and more nourishing. It delivers smoother, more elastic skin with a balanced, youthful glow—without enlarging pores or dehydrating the skin.
Q: What skin types benefit most from the Miami Peel® S-30?
A: The peel is well tolerated by most skin types—including many sensitive and darker complexions (Fitzpatrick III–V). It is especially effective for:
- Acne and oily skin
- Hyperpigmented or uneven skin tone
- Dull or aging skin
- Sun-damaged or smoker’s skin
Q: Can the peel be used on other areas besides the face?
A: Yes. The Miami Peel® S-30 can also be used on the chest, back, and hands to improve tone and texture. Your provider will assess skin thickness and sensitivity before treating areas beyond the face.
Q: What should I know about sun exposure?
A: Avoid direct sun exposure before and after your peel. Daily use of broad-spectrum sunscreen is essential to protect your results, prevent pigmentation, and reduce your risk of skin cancer. Always wear SPF even on cloudy days.
Q: What causes uneven skin tone?
