Professional Peel for Stubborn Skin Concerns
Living in North County means enjoying year-round sunshine—but it also means dealing with the pigmentation, sun damage, and melasma that comes with it. The ZO 3 Step Peel is designed specifically for these stubborn concerns that basic facials and light peels can't address.
At Call of Beauty MedSpa on Coast Highway, we've helped countless Encinitas, Carlsbad, and Solana Beach residents finally see improvement in their long-standing skin concerns. This professional-strength peel delivers real results for pigmentation, texture, and acne.
The Science Behind Triple-Acid Resurfacing
The ZO 3 Step Peel combines multiple active ingredients for comprehensive skin renewal:
- Salicylic Acid: Penetrates pores to clear congestion and treat acne
- Lactic Acid: Gently exfoliates while hydrating the skin
- TCA (Trichloracetic Acid): Professional-strength resurfacing for pigmentation
- Retinol Cream: Applied at home to enhance and maintain results
This multi-acid approach addresses multiple concerns simultaneously—pigmentation from sun damage, melasma, enlarged pores, uneven texture, dullness, and acne.
Conditions That Respond Best
Pigmentation & Brown Spots
Sun damage accumulated from years of Encinitas beach days, age spots, and uneven skin tone respond well to this professional peel.
Melasma
Those stubborn brown patches that worsen with sun exposure. Combined with proper home care, this peel helps manage melasma over time.
Acne & Breakouts
Active acne, clogged pores, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (those dark marks left after breakouts) all improve with treatment.
Dull, Uneven Texture
If your skin looks tired, has enlarged pores, or uneven texture, this peel reveals smoother, more refined skin.

Common Questions About This Peel
How much does the ZO 3 Step Peel cost?
The ZO 3 Step Peel is $395 per treatment. Most clients need a series of 4-6 treatments for optimal results.
How long is the peeling phase?
Expect visible peeling for 3-5 days after treatment. The peeling is when the transformation happens—new, clearer skin is revealed underneath.
Is the ZO Peel right for my melasma?
The ZO 3 Step Peel can be effective for melasma when combined with proper home care and sun protection. During your consultation, we'll assess whether this is the right approach for your specific case.
How many treatments will I need?
Most clients see optimal results after a series of 4-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart. We'll create a customized plan based on your specific concerns.
Can I wear makeup during the peeling phase?
We recommend avoiding makeup during active peeling (days 2-5). Once peeling is complete, you can return to your normal makeup routine.
