About This Treatment
How Chemical Peels Work
Chemical peels use controlled application of acid solutions to remove damaged outer layers of skin, stimulating cellular turnover and collagen production. By precisely dissolving the bonds between dead and damaged cells, these medical-grade formulations reveal the fresher, healthier skin beneath while triggering your body's natural renewal process.
We offer our SaniTize peel system in three levels. Level 1 peels are gentle, superficial refreshers with little to no downtime. Level 2 peels are mid-level corrective treatments using formulations like glycolic and salicylic acid. Level 3 peels reach deeper using glycolic, resorcinol, and TCA for more advanced concerns. At IRIS Aesthetics in Longmont, CO, our Aesthetics Team, led by Adrianna Jensen, MD, selects and applies each peel based on your unique skin type, tone, and goals, ensuring safe, effective treatment every time.
The result? Visibly brighter, smoother, more even-toned skin with refined texture and reduced imperfections that continues to improve in the weeks following treatment as fresh collagen forms and new skin cells surface.

Peel Levels
From gentle monthly maintenance to deeper corrective resurfacing, we customize the right SaniTize peel level for your skin type and goals.
Peel Prep
A 2 to 12 week pre-care routine
For best results, clients may need to follow a 2 to 12 week pre-care routine before their peel. This may include products that help reduce irritation and pigmentation risk while improving healing time and overall results.
Pre-care may include pigment inhibitors, retinoids, hydration support, and other conditioning products depending on the client's skin type and peel level.
Level 1 Peel
Gentle & Refreshing
Best for: Monthly maintenance, radiance, hydration, and smoother skin texture.
Gentle, superficial peels with little to no downtime, typically creating 0–3 days of exfoliation. Designed to brighten the skin, support hydration, and improve smoothness. May include gel and micro peels, a great option for clients who want a refreshed glow without a more aggressive treatment.
Level 2 Peel
Mid-Level Correction
Best for: Mild to moderate skin concerns, uneven tone, and early corrective treatment.
Mid-level peels that typically create 2–4 days of exfoliation. May include glycolic and salicylic peels designed to target fine lines, uneven tone, sun damage, and acne-prone skin. A good option for clients who want more visible results than a maintenance peel but are not ready for deeper resurfacing.
Level 3 Peel
Deeper Transformation
Best for: Deeper exfoliation, wrinkles, acne scars, and pigmentation.
Higher-level corrective peels that typically create 5–7 days of exfoliation. May include glycolic, resorcinol, and TCA peels for deeper exfoliation targeting wrinkles, acne scars, pigmentation, and more advanced texture concerns. Best for clients looking for a more intensive peel with a longer healing period and stronger visible results.
Optional Add-On
ABC Booster Serum. All SaniTize peels can be enhanced with an optional ABC Booster Serum for added peel enhancement. This is an upgraded add-on that may help improve overall results.
