The ASPECT Professional Problem Skin Peel is a targeted, professional-grade chemical peel formulated to support oily, congested, and breakout-prone skin.

Whether you're managing active breakouts or looking to refine and clarify your complexion, this peel delivers visible results for clearer, healthier-looking skin.

Aspect Dr Problem Skin Peel – Clarify, Calm & Control Breakouts

The Aspect Dr Problem Skin Peel is a targeted, professional-grade skin treatment formulated for oily, acne-prone, and congested skin. Powered by Salicylic Acid and Beracare AAA™, this medium-depth peel works to purify pores, balance oil production, and reduce redness—all while calming and clarifying the complexion.

This rejuvenating peel is perfect for those looking to manage persistent breakouts, refine skin texture, and support overall skin clarity with minimal downtime.


Key Benefits of the Aspect Dr Problem Skin Peel

  • Clarifies Congested Skin – Salicylic Acid penetrates deep into the pores to detoxify and clear impurities.

  • Balances Excess Oil – Regulates sebum production and reduces oily shine for a balanced finish.

  • Breakout Management – Targets acne-causing bacteria and helps prevent future breakouts.

  • Reduces Inflammation – Beracare AAA™ calms redness and soothes irritated, stressed skin.

  • Refines Texture – Minimizes the appearance of enlarged pores and uneven skin texture.

  • Detoxifying Action – Helps purge impurities and rebalance the skin barrier.


The Peel Process

Consultation:
Your journey begins with a professional skin assessment to determine if this peel is right for your skin concerns.

Preparation:
The skin is cleansed and prepped for maximum absorption of the active ingredients.

Application:
The peel solution is applied to the skin, often in multiple layers, based on your skin’s needs and tolerance.

Sensation:
You may feel a warm or tingling sensation as the actives begin working. This is completely normal and indicates the peel is effectively penetrating the skin.

Aftercare Advice:
You’ll receive detailed post-care instructions, including product recommendations to support healing and enhance your results.


What to Expect After Your Peel

Following your treatment, you may experience light peeling or flaking as the skin renews itself. This is a natural part of the process as congestion clears and smoother skin is revealed. The result? A clearer, more refined complexion and reduced acne flare-ups over time.


Post-Peel Care Tips

  • Avoid direct sun exposure and wear SPF daily.

  • Keep skin hydrated and avoid harsh or active skincare.

  • Refrain from picking at flaking skin.

  • Use the Aspect Starter Kit pre-peel and Post Peel Kit post-treatment for optimal outcomes.

The Aspect Dr Problem Skin Peel is ideal for clients who want to:

  • Reduce oiliness and shine

  • Unclog pores and refine texture

For enhanced results, this peel can be alternated with Botanical Lactic Acid peels or followed with LED Light Therapy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many sessions will I need to see results?

While some clients notice improvement after a single treatment, we recommend a series of 3–4 peels spaced 2–4 weeks apart for optimal results. Maintenance treatments and a consistent skincare routine will help prolong and enhance your outcomes.

Can I wear makeup after the peel?

It’s best to avoid makeup for at least 24–48 hours post-treatment to allow your skin to heal and breathe. During the peeling phase, we recommend minimal skin contact and hydrating products as advised during your consultation.

 

Can I combine this peel with other treatments?

Absolutely! LED Light Therapy is a great add-on that can be performed after your peel to calm inflammation, accelerate healing, and boost your skin’s overall glow. This can be added to any peel for just $45.
