Facial Chemical Peels

Sun exposure can leave behind age spots and uneven skin tone, and acne — in your teens or as an adult — can leave scars that affect your complexion. Facial chemical peels are a popular, effective way to address these concerns, resurfacing the skin to reveal a smoother, more even, refreshed appearance. Dr. Erez Dayan offers facial chemical peels at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute in Reno/Tahoe, NV.

A great chemical peel result comes down to choosing the right peel and depth for your skin — and few are better equipped to make that call than Dr. Erez Dayan. A board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon and Medical Director of Avance Plastic Surgery Institute, he has published research on facial aesthetics and exceptional cosmetic outcomes, and completed the Harvard Plastic Surgery Program — serving as Chief Resident at Massachusetts General Hospital — before an elite aesthetic fellowship at the Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute, where he was one of only two surgeons selected. He performs a full facial examination before recommending a peel, tailoring the treatment to your skin and goals. Facial chemical peels are one of the practice’s med spa treatments.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Chemical Peel?

Facial chemical peels are a minimally invasive form of skin rehabilitation that can deliver naturally beautiful results. They’re especially effective for those who:

Have light to medium facial wrinkles and lines
Have enlarged pores
Have rough patches of facial skin
Have sun or age spots
Have uneven pigmentation
Have acne or other superficial scars

Dr. Dayan tailors your chemical peel to the level of your needs, often combining it with other treatments as part of a comprehensive, personalized facial rejuvenation plan.

“A chemical peel is only as good as the judgment behind it — matching the depth precisely to the skin and the concern. Done right, it reveals fresher, more even skin while keeping recovery as easy as possible.” — Dr. Erez Dayan

Types of Facial Chemical Peels in Reno/Tahoe

Dr. Dayan and the aesthetics team offer different types of chemical peels to treat varying levels of facial concerns:

Mild/Superficial Peel: different concentrations of the lightest chemical treatment for light lines, wrinkles, or sunspots, with excellent results and very little downtime
Moderate/Medium-Depth Peel: a more intensive treatment for deeper lines, more pronounced concerns, and scarring, with a deeper level of exfoliation that requires more recovery time

When a deeper peel is needed, Dr. Dayan may combine it with other procedures to achieve the results you’re after. He explains his recommendations in detail during a consultation before any treatment begins.

Frequently Asked Questions About Facial Chemical Peels

What do chemical peels treat?
Chemical peels can address fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, rough texture, sun and age spots, uneven pigmentation, and acne or other superficial scars by resurfacing the skin.

How do I know which peel depth I need?
It depends on your skin and the concerns you want to address. Lighter peels suit mild concerns with little downtime, while medium-depth peels treat deeper lines and scarring. Dr. Dayan recommends the right depth after a facial exam.

How much downtime is there?
Superficial peels involve very little downtime, while medium-depth peels require more recovery due to the deeper exfoliation. Dr. Dayan will explain what to expect for your specific peel.

Can a chemical peel help with acne scars?
Yes. Chemical peels can improve acne and other superficial scars, and for deeper concerns Dr. Dayan may combine a peel with other treatments for a better result.

Can peels be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Dr. Dayan often combines peels with other procedures as part of a comprehensive facial rejuvenation plan tailored to your goals.

Are the results long-lasting?
Chemical peels produce lasting improvement, though sun protection and good skincare help maintain results, and periodic treatments can keep skin looking its best.

Hands down the most qualified, honest and knowledgeable plastic surgeon in Northern Nevada. Dr. Dayan and his staff are truly committed to offering leading edge technology, quality and professionalism to each and every treatment ranging from to simple non invasive injections to complicated procedures. What he and his team have to offer always seems too good to be true, but they always over exceed expectations and are incredibly budget conscientious. The Reno-Tahoe area is incredibly fortunate to welcome such a skilled and qualified aesthetic professional into the area!

Dr. Dayan is the surgeon clients should interview with and choose for their procedures. I am always very cautious when deciding important life decisions and I can say without a doubt that I would go through my surgeries again with Dr. Dayan. Every appointment has been professional, courteous, informative, and truthful. I never felt rushed. I also appreciate knowing my privacy is maintained. My fear of pain is very respected, and his demeanor eases it quite a bit. I made my decision to trust Dr. Dayan because of his extensive education, vast experience, and my first-hand witness of his character. These factors have allowed me to look forward to all of my appointments.

I had three consultations and didn't make any decisions lightly, but Dr. Dayan blew the competition out of the water. From the moment I met him during my consultation, he was honest and open while also personable. He also insisted on putting me in touch with previous patients before I made my decision so that I could have a better understanding of the process and recovery as a whole. I ultimately picked him because I knew he would do a good job but also because I felt at ease with him. The day of surgery, I was very nervous and he was comforting while efficient with his time. He was also completely honest with me during my recovery and called either myself or my husband often to make sure I was doing well, but also to make sure my husband understood the process completely. He also makes himself so available for any little questions or concerns I've had, making me feel secure in knowing he's only a phone call or a text away. Although I am not yet completely healed (only 3 weeks post-op) I already feel so confident in the work that has been done. He has helped me to transform something that had me so insecure for such a long time into a body I feel comfortable in. I cannot wait for the final results! I won't hesitate to return to Dr. Dayan for anything else I need done. Between him and his office staff (Alli) I feel like more of a member of the Avance family rather than a patient!

I highly encourage anyone who is considering plastic/reconstruction surgery to schedule a consultation with Dr. Dayan. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and outcome from my breast augmentation. At my consultations, not only did I get my questions thoroughly answered, but I was treated with such genuine kindness and patience. Dr. Dayan is professional, highly knowledgeable, honest and has a certain way of connecting with others. For these reasons, I trusted him and felt supported throughout my whole breast augmentation experience from pre- to post-surgery care. All around, I felt safe and informed about this big decision/investment which is all I could ever ask for. I recovered so much easier than I expected, and my breasts are looking perfect and natural! Dr. Dayan definitely listened to what I wanted and followed through. Lastly, I want to mention how sweet and supportive his team is over at Avance! I am very appreciative of their service.

My results after a "noninvasive" procedure are amazing. The cutting-edge techniques and noninvasive technology that Dr. Dayan incorporates into his procedures, as well as being a gifted and talented surgeon and individual, all contribute to his many accomplishments. However, I personally am impressed with his abilities to listen, communicate, and create beautiful results. I highly recommend a consultation with Dr. Dayan before making a final decision on any kind of procedure. Just another satisfied patient!

I had a perfect experience at Avance. Dr. Dayan was quick, professional, and checked in with me regularly to make sure I was comfortable during the short procedure I needed done. His demeanor was calming and I was able to put full trust in his abilities from start to finish. Erez really knows his stuff, and it's amazing he's here in Reno when he could clearly be somewhere much bigger if he wanted. I definitely won't hesitate to book again if needed.

Absolutely an amazing experience! Where to start? When I first thought of getting a mommy makeover my expectations were not that high because I didn’t ever think I could look the way I wanted to. I always just hoped it would be an improvement and I would be happy with that. Then I met Dr. Dayan. From the first consultation he made me realize that he could give me beautiful results that I didn’t know were possible. He was so kind and confident and I knew from that moment that he was going to be my surgeon. I booked my surgery (a breast augmentation with implants and a tummy tuck with lipo) that day and it was the best choice I have ever made. Before my procedure he was very thorough and explained step by step what he was going to do which made me feel so comfortable. I actually wasn’t nervous at all. I was so excited! I am now 1 month post op and my results are above and beyond what I could have ever dreamed my body could look like after a mommy makeover. Dr. Dayan did an exceptional job. I am not completely healed and I already am so pleased. There are no words that can do justice to how amazing it is to put trust in someone with my body and wake up with results that are better than I could have ever imagined. He truly is skilled in his profession and has the eye for what is best for your body to give you the best results. He followed up with me several times post op to see how I was feeling. If I had any concerns or questions he responded to them quickly and personally which made me feel confident that everything was going well! His care is exceptional from beginning to end. He has an amazing staff as well. His Patient coordinator Ali is so sweet and helpful. She is amazing with communication as well as helping you with financial options and scheduling. You won’t be disappointed working with Dr. Dayan and Ali!
