Your skin texture improves within days. Those stubborn acne scars that makeup never quite covered start fading. Fine lines around your eyes and mouth soften without looking frozen or fake.
The uneven tone from sun damage or melasma evens out. You’re not walking around with a face that screams “I just had work done.” You just look rested, clear, refreshed.
Most people notice the difference when they’re getting ready in the morning and realize they’re reaching for less concealer. Or when someone mentions you look great but can’t pinpoint why. That’s the goal—subtle improvements that make you feel more confident in your own skin, not like you’re wearing someone else’s face.
We’re led by a board-certified plastic surgeon and staffed by certified, licensed injectors who’ve been serving the Linden Park community with the same level of care you’d find in Manhattan—without the Manhattan pricing or attitude.
As a platinum-level Allergan partner, we meet strict standards for safety, training, and client satisfaction. That status isn’t handed out freely. It means we have access to authentic products, advanced techniques, and ongoing education that keeps us ahead of trends.
You get a complimentary consultation where we actually listen, a customized treatment plan based on your skin type and goals, and a two-week follow-up with touch-ups if needed. Most places consider the job done once you pay and leave. We don’t.
You come in for a complimentary consultation first. We examine your skin, talk about what’s bothering you, and figure out which chemical skin peel makes sense—light glycolic chemical peel for surface-level concerns, medium-depth for deeper texture issues, or something in between.
On treatment day, we cleanse your skin and apply the peel solution. You’ll feel some tingling or warmth, but it’s manageable. The whole application takes about 30 minutes depending on the peel type and treatment area.
Afterward, your skin will be pink or red for a few days. Peeling usually starts around day three and wraps up within a week for lighter peels, sometimes longer for deeper treatments. We send you home with specific aftercare instructions and medical-grade products to support healing.
Two weeks later, you come back for your follow-up. We check your results, make sure you’re healing properly, and do any necessary touch-ups at no extra cost. If you want to maintain results long-term, we’ll map out a treatment schedule that makes sense for your skin and your budget.

Every chemical peel in Linden Park, NY at House of Ness includes a complimentary consultation, the treatment itself, post-care instructions, medical-grade skincare recommendations, and that two-week follow-up with touch-ups if needed.
We customize peel strength and type based on your specific concerns—whether that’s acne scarring, sun damage, fine lines, uneven pigmentation, or a combination. Light glycolic peels work well for maintenance and surface-level brightening. Medium-depth peels address more stubborn issues like deeper wrinkles or significant sun damage.
Staten Island residents increasingly choose this non surgical chemical peel option because downtime is minimal compared to laser treatments or surgery, and results are noticeable without looking obvious. You’re not taking two weeks off work or hiding indoors. Most people are back to normal activities within a few days, just with some flaking skin that’s easy to manage.
Pricing is transparent from the start. No surprise fees, no pressure to buy products you don’t need. And if you’re military, a nurse, or a first responder, we offer specialized discounts because we believe quality skincare shouldn’t be out of reach for people serving the community.
You’ll notice some improvement within a few days as your skin starts peeling and revealing fresher layers underneath. But full results take about two weeks once the peeling process is complete and any redness has settled.
For concerns like acne scars or deeper pigmentation, you might need multiple treatments spaced four to six weeks apart to see the level of improvement you’re after. One session helps, but a series of peels builds on each treatment for more dramatic, lasting results.
During your consultation, we’ll be honest about what one treatment can realistically accomplish versus what requires a longer-term plan. Some people come in for a single peel before an event and love the glow. Others commit to a series because they’re tackling years of sun damage or scarring. Both approaches work—it just depends on your goals and timeline.
Light peels, like glycolic chemical peels, work on the outermost layer of skin. They’re great for brightening dull skin, smoothing minor texture issues, and maintaining results between deeper treatments. Downtime is minimal—maybe a day or two of slight redness and light flaking.
Medium-depth peels go deeper into the skin to address more significant concerns like moderate wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation. You’ll have more noticeable peeling for about a week, and redness can last a bit longer. But the results are more dramatic and longer-lasting.
We help you choose based on what you’re trying to fix, how much downtime you can handle, and what your skin can tolerate. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Someone with sensitive skin might start with a series of lighter peels instead of jumping straight to a medium-depth treatment. Someone else with significant sun damage might need the deeper option to see real change. That’s why the consultation matters.
Yes, temporarily. After any face peeling treatment, your skin is more vulnerable to UV damage because you’ve removed the outer protective layers. That’s why we’re strict about sunscreen during the healing process and for several weeks after.
You need to wear a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every single day, even if you’re just running errands or sitting by a window. Skipping sunscreen can lead to hyperpigmentation, uneven tone, and basically undo all the work the peel just did.
We send you home with clear aftercare instructions and recommend medical-grade sunscreen that won’t irritate your healing skin. This isn’t optional—it’s part of the treatment. If you’re not willing to be diligent about sun protection, a chemical peel isn’t the right choice for you right now. We’d rather be upfront about that than have you waste money on a treatment that won’t deliver because you’re not protecting your investment.
Pricing varies based on peel type and treatment area, but you’re looking at significantly less than you’d pay in Manhattan for the same quality and expertise. A light peel typically runs lower than a medium-depth treatment because the products and time involved are different.
During your complimentary consultation, we give you exact pricing based on what we recommend for your skin. No vague estimates or surprise fees when you show up for treatment. You know the cost upfront, and that includes your follow-up appointment and any touch-ups needed.
We also participate in the Allē rewards program, so if you’re already earning points through other Allergan treatments, you can apply those here. And we offer special pricing for new clients, military personnel, nurses, and first responders. The goal is to make professional-grade skincare accessible without compromising on safety or results.
Yes, especially for shallow, rolling acne scars and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation—the dark spots acne leaves behind. Chemical peels work by removing damaged outer layers of skin and stimulating collagen production, which helps smooth texture and fade discoloration over time.
Deep, pitted scars might need a combination approach—peels plus microneedling or laser treatments for more significant improvement. We’re honest about what a peel alone can accomplish versus what requires additional treatments.
Most people with acne scarring see the best results from a series of medium-depth peels spaced several weeks apart. Each treatment builds on the last, gradually improving skin texture and tone. It’s not an overnight fix, but it’s a proven option that doesn’t involve surgery or extensive downtime. We map out a realistic treatment plan during your consultation so you know exactly what to expect and how many sessions you’ll likely need.
It depends on the peel depth. Light peels might leave you with mild redness and flaking for a couple of days—nothing that keeps you from work or normal activities. You can cover most of it with makeup after the first 24 hours.
Medium-depth peels involve more noticeable peeling that lasts about a week. Your skin will be red, tight, and visibly flaking. You’re not hiding indoors, but you’ll want to plan around social events or important meetings if possible.
We give you a detailed aftercare plan that includes gentle cleansers, moisturizers, and sunscreen to support healing. Following those instructions makes a huge difference in how quickly you recover and how good your results look. Most people are surprised that the downtime is manageable—it’s just about knowing what to expect and planning accordingly. If you have a big event coming up, we’ll time your treatment so you’re fully healed and glowing when it matters.
