Chemical peels are one of the fastest ways to improve texture, breakouts, discoloration, and early signs of aging. The difference is how your skin feels during the process and how you look while healing. Linder Health peels are formulated as targeted acid blends plus specialty ingredients, designed to deliver visible results with minimal discomfort and minimal social downtime.
At Amoura Skin and Body in Tanasbourne Beaverton, we use these peels as corrective treatments that still respect the skin barrier, so you can get glow and clarity without feeling stripped.

WHAT MAKES THESE PEELS DIFFERENT
pH precision and controlled resurfacing
Linder Health discusses formulating within a pH range around 3 to 3.5 to optimize exfoliation while staying within a skin mindful “sweet spot.”
Low downtime is the goal
Many clients experience little to no visible shedding, or very light, microscopic flaking

The first 24 to 72 hours

• Some clients feel dryness or mild sensitivity
• Makeup is usually fine the next day if your skin feels calm, but we often recommend letting skin breathe for best results
Days 3 to 7
• You might see light shedding around the mouth, nose, or chin
• Many clients have minimal visible peeling, sometimes only microscopic flaking
• Texture and clarity continue improving as the skin turns over
When you see results
