Chemical peels in Aventura & Miami

How we do Chemical peels at Lumini in Aventura

At Lumini, a chemical peel starts with a consultation, not a one-size product off a shelf. Our medical team, led by Medical Director Dr. Thiago Queiroz, D.O., and Dr. Caio Trentin, M.D., reviews your skin type, your pigment history, and how much downtime you can take, then chooses the acid, the strength, and the number of layers for you. The darker and Hispanic skin tones common in our Aventura clientele need a more conservative, staged approach to avoid post-inflammatory pigment, and that judgment is exactly what a physician-led peel gives you over a walk-in facial.

A session takes about 30 to 45 minutes. You feel warmth or a light tingling during the application, and depending on the depth you flake or lightly peel for roughly three to seven days afterward. Results show as the peeling completes, usually within one to two weeks, and most patients do a short series for the smoothest, most even result. Strict daily SPF afterward is not optional here.

The Aventura angle is all about light and pigment. South Florida's year-round, high-UV sun makes sun spots and melasma some of the most common concerns we see, and a peel is one of the most direct ways to clear that pigment and restart the skin. The catch is timing: a peel briefly resets your skin's defenses right when our sun is at its strongest, so we plan your peel around your sun exposure and send you out with real photoprotection. Done right, a peel is how you keep clear, even skin in a city that stays bright twelve months a year.
