Skin Rejuvenation
Chemical peels, microneedling, and other treatments to refresh and renew your skin.
Skin rejuvenation encompasses a range of treatments designed to restore a more youthful, radiant complexion. At Rao Dermatology, we offer advanced rejuvenation treatments including chemical peels, microneedling, PRP facials, and combination therapies tailored to your specific skin needs.
Chemical peels use carefully formulated acid solutions to exfoliate damaged outer layers of skin, revealing smoother, more even-toned skin beneath. We offer peels ranging from gentle, no-downtime treatments to deeper peels for more significant concerns.
Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate your body's natural collagen production. When combined with PRP (the "vampire facial"), results are enhanced further. These treatments improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, diminish acne scars, and create a more luminous complexion.

Chemical peels use carefully selected acids — glycolic, salicylic, TCA, or Jessner's — to exfoliate damaged outer skin layers and stimulate cellular renewal. We offer superficial, medium, and deep peels tailored to your skin type and concerns including acne, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and uneven texture. Most peels require minimal downtime, with deeper peels yielding more dramatic and lasting results.

The PRP Facial — often called the "Vampire Facial" — involves microneedling the skin and applying concentrated platelet-rich plasma derived from your own blood. Growth factors in the PRP accelerate healing, stimulate collagen production, and improve skin tone, texture, fine lines, and pore size with completely natural results. A series of 3 monthly treatments is recommended for optimal outcomes.
Our comprehensive anti-aging protocols combine medical-grade modalities including laser resurfacing, radiofrequency skin tightening, chemical peels, retinoid therapy, and growth factor serums to visibly reduce wrinkles, restore skin volume, and improve overall radiance — tailored to your skin type and aesthetic goals.

Stretch marks (striae) result from rapid skin stretching during growth, pregnancy, or weight fluctuation. We treat them using a combination of fractional laser resurfacing, microneedling, and topical retinoids to rebuild collagen within the scar tissue — improving texture and fading the discoloration of both red/purple (early) and white/silver (mature) stretch marks.

A therapeutic facial designed specifically for acne-prone and congested skin. The treatment includes deep pore cleansing, gentle exfoliation, targeted extractions, high-frequency therapy, and the application of anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial serums to calm active breakouts and prevent future congestion. Recommended monthly for ongoing acne management.
A next-generation hydrodermabrasion treatment that simultaneously exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates the skin using oxygenated serums delivered under gentle suction. Unlike traditional microdermabrasion, it causes no discomfort or redness — making it ideal for all skin types, including sensitive skin. The result is an immediate, radiant glow with no downtime.
A non-invasive facial using radiofrequency energy to heat the deep layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and tightening lax facial tissue. This treatment is ideal for early signs of aging — fine lines, mild jowling, and skin laxity — and delivers progressive firming results with no downtime and no needles.
DiamondGlow is a next-level skin resurfacing treatment that simultaneously exfoliates, extracts, and infuses customized SkinMedica serums deep into the skin — in a single pass. A diamond-tipped wand removes dead skin cells while a patented vacuum technology delivers active ingredients (brightening, anti-aging, or acne-clearing) exactly where they're needed. Available at all West Coast locations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a chemical peel and microneedling?
Chemical peels exfoliate the outer layers of skin using acid solutions, best for pigmentation, sun damage, and skin tone. Microneedling creates tiny punctures to stimulate collagen production, best for texture, fine lines, and scars. Your provider may recommend one or both based on your concerns.
How often should I get skin rejuvenation treatments?
Treatment frequency depends on the specific procedure. Light chemical peels can be done monthly, while microneedling sessions are typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Your provider will recommend a treatment schedule based on your skin goals and the therapies selected.
