Dermaquest Resurfacers

A graduated family of enzyme and acid resurfacers, chosen and layered to your skin's tolerance.

Overview

What it is

A professional treatment that gently exfoliates and deeply hydrates the skin, promoting smoother texture, a brighter, more radiant complexion, and healthy cellular turnover.

Unlike a traditional chemical peel, a resurfacer is gentler and more hydrating, making it ideal for sensitive or dehydrated skin while still improving texture, reducing dullness, and enhancing overall skin vitality. Options include Lactic Acid, MangoBrite, Primary Pumpkin, Power Pumpkin and Power Peptide.
