Chemical Peel in Fredericksburg, VA
What Is A Chemical Peel?
To provide the highest quality results from chemical peel treatments, Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg provides you with options. Your medical-grade chemical peel with exfoliating solutions (such as salicylic, glycolic, lactic, and trichloroacetic acids) will give you healthier, smoother skin. At our Fredericksburg, VA practice, plastic surgeons Dr. Howard Heppe, Dr. Harold Bautista, and Dr. Pejman Aflaki offer chemical peel treatments that resolve skin abnormalities, including wrinkles, scars, fine lines, dry patches, hyperpigmentation problems, and more. Chemical peels remove damaged, dead skin cells by applying a specific solution on the skin, which causes the upper layer to slough off. As your skin recovers and starts to repair and rejuvenate itself, you will notice a smoother, clearer complexion. A chemical peel facial is a noninvasive method to make your complexion radiant and is used for the neck and face.
How Is a Chemical Peel Performed?
At your appointment at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg, we will have you lying in a comfortable position to administer your treatment. A team member will ensure the skin is cleaned before applying the customized solution to your face and/or neck.

Finally, we will clean the solution off your skin and put on a neutralizing agent. Patients should bring light sunscreen or a hat to wear outside after the peel to protect from UV exposure.

Chemical Peel Reviews
Saw Dr. Bautista for breast augmentation and extremely pleased with my experience. He was patient with my questions and educated me on realistic results. I’m overwhelmingly happy with the outcome and without hesitation recommend him!
I had such a great experience here. Everyone in the office is so helpful and professional. I’ve had 5 large babies and had quite the muffin top situation going on. I can’t believe the difference the tummy tuck made. I’ve heard of other people traveling far away to get procedures done, but I’m super grateful we have such a high caliber plastic surgery office here in Fredericksburg!
I had a breast augmentation done in May and I could not be happier. Dr Heppe and his staff were very professional, helpful and supportive in making sure that what I wanted is what I got. I’ve waited my entire adult life for this surgery and would do it again with this team in a second. A+ all the way around!
I recently underwent a transformative journey with Dr. Aflaki, a highly skilled plastic surgeon, on March 15th. I opted for a tummy tuck and breast augmentation, and I must say that my experience exceeded all expectations. From start to finish, Dr. Aflaki’s commitment to precision and the compassionate care provided by his team made my surgical experience truly remarkable. Dr. Aflaki’s attention to detail was evident from the moment we began discussing the procedure. He took the time to understand my aesthetic goals and concerns, ensuring that I felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. His expertise in the field of plastic surgery was apparent, and he skillfully guided me towards the best approach for achieving my desired results. On the day of the surgery, Dr. Aflaki’s expertise shone through as he performed the tummy tuck and breast augmentation with incredible precision. His surgical skills combined with his meticulous attention to detail resulted in outcomes that surpassed my expectations. Specifically since he had to correct errors made in my breast augmentation years 15 years ago. His ability to adapt to the unexpected was outstanding. The results were natural and beautifully enhanced my figure, leaving me feeling confident and delighted with the transformation. I must also commend Dr. Aflaki’s team of nurses who were kind, attentive, and exceptionally supportive during my recovery period. They ensured that I received the utmost care and comfort, promptly addressing any concerns or questions that arose. Their empathy and dedication made a significant difference in my recovery journey, and I am incredibly grateful for their presence. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Aflaki as a plastic surgeon. His attention to detail, expertise, and genuine care for his patients set him apart. As you can see on his great collection of before and after pictures on instagram. My tummy tuck and breast augmentation experience was truly exceptional, and I am thrilled with the results. If you are seeking a highly skilled surgeon who prioritizes patient satisfaction and surrounds themselves with a compassionate team, Dr. Aflaki is undoubtedly an excellent choice.
The whole staff was amazing. I had a breast lift with augmentation and I love the results. I am no longer embarrassed about my chest. I also had filler under my eyes and everyone at work has commented on how rested I look. My only regret is I wish I would have done this procedure years ago.

How much does a chemical peel cost?
Dr. Heppe can discuss your costs in your consultation as soon as He has developed your custom treatment plan. Costs for a chemical peel will vary depending on the formula you get. Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg takes several payment methods, and you can ask about current specials on facial treatments like chemical peels. You may also consider buying a package of several chemical peel treatments.
What level should I choose for my chemical peel?
The best chemical peel for you will depend on your unique skin needs and cosmetic goals. In your initial consultation with Dr. Heppe, he will help you decide which peel is best for your skin. Some factors you may consider are your general health, your skin type, how deep you want the peel to work, how long you can spend in recovery, and what you want the peel to accomplish. Initially, it's better to select a lighter chemical peel and decide what you think of the results. After this, you and Dr. Heppe may adjust your treatment plan to discover the best type of peel for your skin.
Will my face hurt after a chemical peel?
Based on the chemicals used, you may feel some discomfort throughout the treatment and shortly after. If you choose a light peel, you may notice some stinging, but it goes away quickly with the use of a small fan. Deep or medium peels are good for deeper damage and offer results that last a long time; however, they typically cause greater discomfort. Topical anesthetics, medications, and ointments may be applied to help you feel more comfortable during your treatment. Dr. Heppe or a member of His team will go over post-treatment skin care to help your skin heal.
Can I combine a chemical peel with other treatments?
A chemical peel may be combined with another nonsurgical skin treatment at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg. During your consultation, be honest with Dr. Heppe when describing your skin issues so he can create a personalized treatment plan that delivers your best results. This might include an injectable treatment for wrinkles (such as BOTOX® or JUVÉDERM®) along with your chemical peel to refresh your whole appearance.
