Contact UsWhat are Chemical Peels?
To provide the highest quality results from chemical peel facial treatments, Ball Dentistry offers you multiple effective peel options. Your personalized chemical peel with exfoliating solutions (such as glycolic, salicylic, lactic, and trichloroacetic acids) will reveal healthier, smoother, and youthful-looking skin. At our Indianapolis, IN office, our team offers chemical peel treatments that help decrease skin imperfections, including wrinkles, fine lines, scars, uneven patches, hyperpigmentation problems, and more. Chemical peels remove dead, damaged skin cells with an individualized treatment on your skin, which causes the upper layer to peel off. As your skin heals and begins to rejuvenate and repair itself, you may notice a clearer, smoother complexion. A chemical peel facial is a great nonsurgical way to make your skin brighter and can also be used for the neck and décolletage.
Variations of Chemical Peels
At our Indianapolis, IN office, we offer chemical peels in several strengths (light, medium, and deep) to accommodate our patients' skin needs and goals.
Light peels: You can receive a light peel on your lunch break and go right back to your normal routine. This type of peel will remove the outer skin layer (the epidermis), giving your face a brighter appearance and smoother texture. We usually suggest that you schedule a light chemical peel around once a month for the best results.
Medium-depth peels: This type of peel reaches further into your skin, and you'll generally prefer to have this type of facial rejuvenation treatment during a long weekend. You may also want to ready yourself for more discomfort during and up to one hour after a chemical peel. Medium-depth peels are designed for patients who have significant damage to their skin, such as deeper lines and darker pigmentation issues.
Deep peels: The most advanced of the three levels of chemical peels is the deep peel, and it will require the most recovery time. This is an aggressive procedure that may leave your face itchy, peeling, and swollen for 2 – 3 weeks. Patients who receive a deep peel will have dark age spots, sun damage, prominent acne scars, or deep scars. Since this strength of chemical peel is typically uncomfortable for patients, we will provide you with an anesthetic before your peel.
How Does a Chemical Peel Work?
On the day of your procedure at Ball Dentistry, we will have you lying down in a relaxed position to administer your treatment. We will make sure the skin is thoroughly cleaned prior to applying the personalized peel solution to the face and/or neck. We will massage the solution onto the skin and let it work for a specific amount of time, which will be discussed in your treatment planning session. Next, we will wash the solution off your skin and put on a neutralizing agent. Patients may want to bring light sunscreen or a hat to wear outside after the procedure to avoid sun exposure.
Ball Dentistry Reviews
I highly recommend ball dentistry! I seen jaylen and Dr. Rachel they was so caring and amazing at getting my back moller out! They talked about the whole procedure and made sure I was comfortable! Thanks again girls!
Dr. Gary Ball has been providing all of my dental care for over 40 years. He is the patriarch of a dental family. His son, Dr. Craig Ball, has also provided excellent care for many years now. I trust them implicitly to give me sound advice and treatment for a reasonable and fair price. Over the years their practice has grown but they've maintained a family approach. They don't just focus on my dental needs. They ask me how I'm doing in general and follow my many hobbies and interests. They know my strengths as well as my fears and failures. They approach each challenge with compassion and dignity. I've had almost a hundred cleanings, dozens of xrays, in-house CT scans, a few whitening treatments, and multiple fillings, crowns, and implants over the years. They maintain the latest imaging equipment and modern treatment methods. If you're looking for an improvement or a second opinion, give these folks a shout. I'm so proud of my dental health and I owe it to brushing with a good toothbrush, flouride toothpaste and treatments, and flossing twice a day. But most of all I owe it to the Ball Dentistry family practice.
Can't say enough good things about the doctor and the entire staff at this office. I've been a patient for approximately 10 years and I can't recommend them more highly! What do you got going on with
I love Ball there very professional and nice and quick no sitting in waiting room for along periods of time and great with kids
Dr. Thompson is fantastic as well as the rest of the staff. I recently had to switch dentists due to insurance and picked this office at random because it is close to home. So glad I did.

About UsChemical Peel FAQs
How much does a chemical peel cost?
Dr. Ball will discuss your costs during your consultation once she has created your personalized treatment plan. The cost of a chemical peel will vary based on the intensity you choose. Ball Dentistry accepts several payment methods, and you can ask about current specials on treatments like chemical peels. Buying a package with several chemical peel treatments can also help you save money.
What level should I choose for my chemical peel?
Which level of chemical peel is best for you will vary based on your unique skin issues and aesthetic goals. In your consultation with Dr. Ball, She will help you select which chemical peel is best for your skin. A few factors you may consider are your overall health, your skin type, how deep you want the peel to work, the time you can commit to recovery, and what you want the peel to accomplish. For your first peel, it is better to try a light peel and see what you think of the results. After this, you and Dr. Ball may alter your plan to decide the best type of peel for your needs.
Should I get a chemical peel or dermabrasion treatment?
Dermabrasion and chemical peels are both facial rejuvenation procedures that address surface irregularities to give your skin a rejuvenated appearance. The main difference is that dermabrasion uses surgical tools (a shaving instrument or rotating brush) to remove the top layer of skin through a careful scraping process. A chemical peel applies a caustic solution to your skin to dissolve damaged skin cells. In your consultation, Dr. Ball will review each treatment's pros and cons and help you decide whether a chemical peel or dermabrasion is better for achieving your skin goals.
