Does the preview show the peeling and flaking phase, or the healed result?

The healed result. Showing a mid-peel frosted or flaking face would scare patients out of a treatment that works — the preview reflects the skin outcome once the peeling cycle resolves, which is what you're actually selling. You still walk them through the downtime timeline separately as part of informed consent.

Can it show different peel depths — a lunchtime glycolic versus a medium-depth TCA?

Yes. The preview can be calibrated to the specific peel you're recommending. A superficial enzyme or glycolic peel shows a subtler brightening result; a Jessner or TCA peel targeting melasma or deeper photodamage shows a more pronounced tone-and-texture change. Set the peel type before generating so the result matches what you're actually about to perform.

How does it handle patients with melasma or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation?

The AI is built to render realistic pigmentation improvement, not a full erase. Melasma and PIH respond to peels gradually and often need a series plus sun protection to hold — the preview should reflect one realistic step in that process, and you set that expectation verbally alongside it.

Is the preview accurate for darker Fitzpatrick skin types, where peel risk is different?

Yes, and this is where the preview does the most work. Patients with Fitzpatrick IV-VI are often the most hesitant about peels because of PIH risk, and they're also the ones stock before-and-after photos underserve, since most clinical reference libraries skew toward lighter skin. Generating the preview from the patient's own photo keeps the projected result anchored to their actual skin tone instead of a mismatched reference case.

Can I use this to show results after a full peel series, not just one session?

Yes. For melasma, acne scarring, or significant sun damage that require three to six sessions to fully resolve, you can generate a preview reflecting the cumulative series result. This is useful for justifying a package price instead of a single-session sale.

Are patient photos retained?

That's your call, not ours — it's your software. We build the retention policy around what your practice needs and make sure it meets HIPAA and any other regulation that applies. No training on patient data, ever.

There's no off-the-shelf plan, so there's no published price list. Share your details and we'll discuss project scope and pricing on a free consultation call — see /pricing for details.

How is this different from the generic skin-analysis apps some peel product lines already offer?

Skin-analysis apps score current skin condition — texture, pore size, redness — as a diagnostic tool. This generates a projected after photo of the patient's own face, built specifically for the consultation-room conversation about whether to book. It's a closing tool, not a diagnostic one.

What is a chemical peel preview preview?

A chemical peel preview tool uses AI to generate a photorealistic image of what a patient's skin will look like after a chemical peel, once the peeling and flaking phase has healed. The esthetician, nurse injector, or dermatologist captures a baseline photo, and the tool renders the tone, texture, and pigmentation result calibrated to the specific peel depth and agent being recommended. Med spas and dermatology practices use this during the intake consult so the patient can see the outcome, not the downtime, before they book.

Why it matters

Chemical peels sell on a promise that's hard to picture: smoother texture, fewer visible pores, lighter melasma or sun spots, an even tone. Patients considering a peel series (three to six sessions at $150–$400 per session for superficial peels, more for medium-depth TCA work) are also the patients most anxious about downtime — flaking, redness, and frosting that can last anywhere from two days to two weeks depending on peel depth. That anxiety, not price, is usually what stalls the booking. A preview that shows the realistic skin outcome — not the mid-peel frosted or flaking phase — gives the esthetician or provider something concrete to point to while they explain the downtime timeline, so the patient books with eyes open instead of walking out to "research it more."

Who uses this

Licensed estheticians and med spa owners performing superficial glycolic, salicylic, and lactic acid peels. Nurse injectors and PAs administering Jessner and TCA peels under a supervising physician. Dermatologists offering medium-depth peels for melasma, actinic damage, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Med spa front-desk staff running the preview during the intake consult, before the provider ever assesses the skin in the treatment room.

Heard this from a patient?

Patients ask what their skin will actually look like after the peeling phase resolves, and the only thing you have to show them is a stock photo of a stranger's melasma clearing.

They're worried about how long they'll be visibly peeling — a wedding, a work trip, a photo shoot — and cancel the booking rather than risk being caught mid-flake.

They've had a bad peel or a friend's PIH story and assume any peel will leave dark or light patches on their skin tone, so they downgrade to a facial instead.

How chemical peel preview previews work

Three steps. Under 10 seconds. No design skills needed.

Capture a baseline facial photo

Consistent, diffused lighting in the treatment room — the same setup you'd use for a Fitzpatrick or Wood's lamp assessment. No special camera required.

AI generates the post-peel result

The model reflects the tone, texture, and pigmentation outcome specific to the peel depth and agent you select — a light glycolic refresh reads differently from a TCA series targeting melasma.

Present during the consult, before the first application

Their own skin, resolved and healed. You walk through the downtime timeline knowing they've already bought into the outcome.
