Our Professional Staff will customize your Rejuvenation Chemical Peel to enhance your facial experience! We are proud to offer this service to our clients in Philadelphia, Bala Cynwyd, Bryn Mawr, and other nearby areas in Pennsylvania.
What is the Rejuvenation Chemical Peels?
Our chemical peels at Essent Spa are physician grade liquids that help to increase the speed of skin exfoliation. The Rejuvenation Peel contains physician only levels of glycolic acid that target the signs of aging including dull skin, hyperpigmentation, and fine line and wrinkles.
Why would I need a Chemical Peel?
There a number of reason why our professional staff may recommend a chemical peel.
Firstly, normal skin exfoliation when you are younger takes about 2 weeks. As we age, skin turnover slows. This results in dead, dull skin coating the surface of our skin. Chemical Peels gently stimulate cell turnover to give back that radiant look we remember.
Secondly, you maybe experiencing higher levels of abnormal bacteria on your skin surface. This condition maybe reflected in acne, uneven skin tone, congestion, and enlarged pores. There are many causes for this abnormal bacteria count. Most often, this condition is related to hormonal changes. Chemical Peels are an excellent choice to help correct this problem.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Chemical Peel?
Chemical Peels can be used for all skin types. The Rejuvenation Peel is not used in all skin types. If you are not sure if this is the right peel for your skin, don’t worry. When you arrive, we will help chose the right peel for your skin and goals!
Can Chemical Peels be combined with other treatments?
Yes. In fact, at Essent Spa, a chemical peel is an add-on to a facial! You need to cleanse the skin and open the pores for the chemical peel to have the best effect. Your provider may also recommend you combine this service with dermaplaning or another anti-aging procedure. During your consultation, the appropriate treatment plan to achieve your desired results will be discussed with you.
How should I prepare for my Chemical Peel?
There is no specific preparation for your chemical peel. Remember, chemical peels should not be performed on skin that is burned from sun exposure. Please be sure to discontinue the use of any topical prescription medications 7 days before treatment (For example, Retin-A, Trilumen, Differin, etc.).
You may not be a candidate if you are taking certain oral medications like steroids or Accutane. Pregnant or women who are nursing should not be treated.
What can I expect during my treatment?
You may feel some mild warmth during the treatment. It is not uncomfortable or painful. There is not need for any anesthetic!
What can I expect after my treatment?
Our chemical peels work at the deep levels of the skin. Therefore, peels at Essent Spa typically cause little to no discomfort, minimal to no flaking, and your skin will be glowing and healthy looking following your treatment. We do offer a “Date Night Peel” which leaves your skin glowing immediately after the treatment and is a favorite before events!
What areas of the body do you treat?
Typical Areas to Treat include:
- Face
- Neck
- Decollete/chest
- Back
- Hands

What Our Clients are Saying
Finally a resort quality medical spa in a convenient location. I received a gift of an 80 min Ultimate Massage at Essent Spa. This was my first visit to the spa. That was incredible! I have had the opportunity to visit some medical spas in Australia, SoCal, and Philadelphia. So I can honestly say that Essent Spa is first class. The location is great - you don't have to travel into the city, easy to get to (just off I476), great parking. The facilities are resort quality - beautifully decorated, private and tranquil spaces. They offer a wide selection of services. Highly professional and skilled doctors and service providers. Very attentive to your needs. I am looking forward to my next visit!

I've had Botox previously but never had such great results! I look rested and my skin looks smooth but natural. The lip pop is a great way to get fuller lips without lip filler...and very affordable at only $50! Thanks Jen! I'm really happy with my results!! Click here to read more Five Star Review Yelp: Karen
What Our Clients are Saying
Had a very pleasant experience with Lis. I had a facial and dermaplaning done, and from the second I walked in, to the second I left, I felt comfortable and relaxed. The look of the spa is breathtaking, and you will no doubt leave feeling relaxed and refreshed. Lissy was very professional and very gentle. Best Facial I've had to date, hands down. Looking forward to coming back again very soon! Try Essent Spa, you won't be disappointed! Click Here to read more Five Star Yelp Review: Jessie
What Our Clients are Saying
My experiences with Essent Spa have been wonderful all around, and I HIGHLY recommend Jen Perry!! She is incredible. I have seen her for facial fillers, and I am not only over the moon with the results, but also grateful for her process. She truly listens. She always considers my unique goals and concerns and is exceedingly careful and thoughtful (when other doctors or techs would push a prescriptive one-size-fits-all solution that doesn't account for your concerns). She is super friendly and disarming, and always follows up which makes a world of difference as well. She's very accommodating and genuinely wants to help. I cannot recommend her enough!
