Chemical Peel in Newport Beach / Orange County
Dr. Sajjadian performs chemical peels on an outpatient basis within his gorgeous, relaxing office. Patients are allowed to return home immediately following the procedure, which typically lasts 15 to 30 minutes.
Dr. Sajjadian begins the procedure by creating a chemical solution of alphahydroxy acids (glycolic, lactic or fruit acids), trichloroacetic acids, or other peeling agents, depending on the aesthetic goals of his patient. Then, he carefully applies the solution to the treatment area, which reacts with the skin to “peel” the outer layer of dead skin cells. The solution also stimulates new skin cell growth to give chemical peel patients a are more refreshed, rejuvenated appearance.
Following the procedure, Dr. Sajjadian recommends patients avoid sunlight and makeup for a few days. Once healed, patients notice an improvement in wrinkles, acne, scars and the overall skin texture and appearance.
Testimonial
“I have worked out all my life, and after 2 children, I couldn’t work off the fat despite consistent exercise. I had never had a surgery like this before. When I came to Dr. Sajjadian, he instantly made me feel comfortable. Almost 4 months later I feel happier and I see the results, with minimal scarring. My stomach looks like it did before I was pregnant.”
“Dr. Sajjadian takes the time to make sure you understand what he’s doing and why. He’s a conservative doctor who doesn’t like to rush thing, because he wants the best results for you as possible. He’s kind, caring, and thorough. I would recommend Dr. Sajjadian to anyone who is interested in considering getting a tummy tuck.”

“I trusted Dr. Sajjadian as I was able to see some of his cases beforehand, and the results were amazing. The Dr. made me very comfortable with what I wanted done. When it came to the surgery, I had very little bruising and swelling, and within 3/4 days I felt great. I have been back to the office since and would use Dr. Sajjadian again if I need any more work done.”

Chemical Peel FAQs
Chemical peels employ mild fruit acids for skin exfoliation.
After the peel has been applied and begins to dry, you may feel a tingling or mild burning sensation. The extent of this sensation varies depending upon the type of peel.
The depth and type of the chemical peel solution will determine the extent to which the skin will peel. Typically, this takes between 3-10 days.
Patients expect to peel to some degree after treatment, but the extent really depends on your skin’s condition.
- Retin-A, Renova, Tazorac or any other products containing Retinol.
- Vitamin A, Salicylic acid, glycolic acid or Benzyl Peroxide.

After the first full day, you will likely notice some tingling, redness, burning, irritation, or mild swelling. These are all normal sensations and part of the healing process.
In general, peeling starts 48-72 hours post treatment and can last between 2-7 days.
You can resume normal activity after a chemical peel; however, you should avoid strenuous exercise and heavy sweating for 2-3 days.
- Gently apply a thin layer of moisturizer to the skin numerous times during the day, as recommended.
- Apply sunscreen with SPF30 or more.
- Avoid strenuous workouts, dry saunas, and steam rooms.
