High-Quality Skin Care

The skin is your body’s largest organ, serving to protect your inner organs from the outside world and helping to regulate your body temperature.

In addition to safe and effective nonsurgical and laser treatments, Lahey Hospital & Medical Center offers in-office procedures at our Lexington and Lynnfield locations to help keep your skin looking its best.

We can help correct the appearance and condition of your skin with these services performed in a safe clinical setting.

These services are available at both our Lexington and Lynnfield locations:

• Chemical peels

These services are available only at our Lexington location:

• Microdermabrasion—This procedure uses tiny crystals to gently exfoliate the skin, followed by a suction to remove dead skin and debris from your pores. Microdermabrasion offers immediate results and is best for fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, enlarged oily pores and acne scarring.
• MicroPeel—During this three-step process, a micro-thin top layer of your skin is removed, and an alpha hydroxy acid solution and cryogenic therapy is used to exfoliate and stimulate your skin. The procedure is safe and effective, immediately resulting in better skin clarity, tone and texture.
• MicroPeel Plus—More advanced than the standard MicroPeel, this treatment uses salicylic acid to stimulate cellular turnover. The treatment helps smooth fine lines, even out skin discoloration and control acne while also reducing the appearance of acne scars and environmental damage to your skin. Minimal recovery time is required.
• Stimulator peel—Also known as the red-carpet peel, this treatment stimulates the turnover of the epidermal layer of your skin. Good for all skin types, a stimulator peel requires no downtime and helps reduce acne, control oil, smooth the skin, even skin tone and improve pigmentation.
• Ultrasound facial treatment—This procedure uses ultrasound to stimulate the blood supply to the collagen layer under your skin to improve blood circulation and increase cell regeneration and moisture retention. The result is reduced pore size, reduced acne, and improved strength and firmness.
