Chemical Peels & Skincare

HydraFacials and LED therapy have zero downtime — you can return to your day immediately. Microneedling typically involves 24 to 48 hours of redness, similar to a mild sunburn. RF microneedling may involve 2 to 3 days of redness and mild swelling. Chemical peels vary from no visible peeling (lighter peels) to 5 to 7 days of flaking (deeper peels). We will explain exactly what to expect for your specific treatment before you begin.

HydraFacial is a multi-step hydradermabrasion treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, and infuses the skin with antioxidant serums. It has zero downtime, is well-tolerated across all skin types, and can be done monthly. A multicenter clinical study in the Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology showed significant skin improvement with 100% patient satisfaction and no severe adverse effects reported.

Your first visit begins with a complimentary consultation where we review your skin history, previous treatments, and goals. Our medical team is involved in every patient's treatment plan. We will walk you through our recommendations, explain why we chose them, and make sure you are completely comfortable before any treatment begins.

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is a real and well-documented risk in melanin-rich skin, and it is the main reason Kintsu has deep expertise in this area. Every protocol is calibrated to minimize pigment disruption. Device settings and post-care are adjusted specifically for your Fitzpatrick type, making our treatments safe for every skin tone. A 2024 systematic review in the Journal of Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery confirms that PIH is among the most common concerns in melanin-rich skin — and that proper provider expertise is essential to preventing it.
