What is the Enlighten™ Peel?
The EnlightenTM Peel is a medical-grade, prescription-strength chemical peel designed to treat melasma, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, acne scars, and textured skin. Safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types, including ethnic and melanin-rich skin, this powerful peel effectively targets uneven skin tone by inhibiting melanin production and speeding up cell turnover.
In-office, the treatment takes about 20–35 minutes, where a blend of exfoliating agents and brighteners is applied to the skin to bring pigmentation to the surface and stimulate cell turnover. The peel remains on your skin for 8–12 hours before being washed off at home. A 28-day home care protocol follows, continuing the brightening process and supporting healthy, even-toned skin.
How the Enlighten™ Peel Works
At Venus Spa in East Boston, this peel is applied during a 20-35 minute in-office session. A proprietary blend of exfoliating agents and brighteners is applied to bring pigmentation to the surface. The mask stays on for 8-12 hours before being rinsed off at home. The treatment continues with a 28-day home care protocol to maintain and enhance results.
