What Is Enzyme Exfoliation?

Gentle Renewal for Sensitive & Reactive Skin

Enzyme & Gentle Exfoliation Therapy uses fruit- or plant-derived enzymes rather than acids to break down and dissolve dead skin cells on the surface, revealing smoother, brighter skin without the intensity of a chemical peel.

Because enzymes work more selectively on dead, dulling skin cells rather than penetrating deeper layers, this treatment is naturally gentler — making it a comfortable option for patients whose skin doesn't tolerate stronger acids well.

There's no downtime, no visible peeling, and no post-treatment sensitivity to speak of, making it easy to repeat regularly as part of an ongoing skincare rotation.

  • Enzyme-based, gentler than acid peels
  • Well suited to sensitive or reactive skin
  • No downtime or visible peeling
  • Suitable for frequent, ongoing use

Common Questions

Enzyme & Gentle Exfoliation Therapy — FAQ

How is this different from a chemical peel?

Enzymes work more gently and selectively on dead surface cells, while a Customized Chemical Peel uses acids that can penetrate deeper for more dramatic resurfacing — with correspondingly more downtime.

Will my skin peel or flake afterward?

No — this treatment does not typically cause visible peeling or flaking, which is part of why it's well suited to sensitive skin.

How often can I get this treatment?

Because it's gentle, many patients repeat this treatment monthly as part of an ongoing skincare rotation without irritation.

Is this suitable for acne-prone skin?

Many patients with mild acne or congestion tolerate enzyme exfoliation well, though your consultation will confirm the right approach if you have active breakouts.

Can this be combined with other facials?

Yes, it pairs well with treatments like Hydrafacial or LED Light Therapy for a more complete facial treatment.
