The ZO® 3-Step Peel™ is a powerful solution for addressing multiple skin concerns, including melasma, sun damage, aging, uneven texture, and acne. This "multifunctional epidermal" peel delivers longer-lasting results than traditional treatments by exfoliating, stimulating, and calming your skin.

With a unique blend of lactic, salicylic, and trichloroacetic acids, the peel removes the skin’s outermost layer to reveal softer, firmer skin beneath. Developed by renowned dermatologist Dr. Zein Obagi, the ZO® 3-Step Peel™ offers customizable results tailored to each individual’s needs.

Here’s What Makes This Treatment So Effective

Step 1

The Peel Treatment

The process begins with an exfoliating peel, removing dead skin cells and minimizing reactions with added saponins. While the treatment may feel mildly uncomfortable, it only takes about five minutes.

Step 1

Step 2

Retinol Creme Application

Following the peel, a 6% retinol cream is applied to encourage cell renewal and stimulate collagen. The powerful antioxidants in this cream work deep within the skin to help reverse signs of aging and sun damage.

Step 3

Calming Creme Application

To finish, a calming cream soothes the skin, helping reduce any lingering irritation. This cream, provided for post-care at home, keeps your skin hydrated and comfortable in the days following the peel.

Balance is beautiful in every sense of the word. Their space is clean, welcoming and gorgeous. Their team is friendly, intelligent and experienced. I have received a Diamond Glow facial and Botox and both were wonderful experiences. Looking forward to my next visit! Thanks Janie and Dr. Scileppi!
Balance aesthetics is amazing! Dr. Scileppi truly cares about his patients and Jill is fantastic! If you haven’t been, call and schedule your next pamper session—you deserve it and you won’t be disappointed!!
I had a facial with Olivia and it was soooo good! Everyone was very friendly with genuine smiles. Above and beyond in customer service and a beautiful set up.
I can't say enough good things about the Dr. S (sorry can't remember his name). He did a few things on my daughter and she looked so good that I made an appointment for myself. Going to him for all of my needs has been the best decision of my life! I will forever be a patient at Balance Aesthetics as long as he is there!
Dr. Robert Scileppi embodies perfection, a compliment I do not offer lightly. Perfection is a quality reserved for those devoid of any flaws or imperfections. Dr. Scileppi has genuinely surpassed my expectations. He is not just a physician; he is an artist who has honed his craft to perfection. As I approach 50 years of age and being quite budget-conscious (ok extremely frugal), I made the decision in 2008 to forgo maintenance treatments like Botox or fillers in favor of a facelift. I had a facelift and rhinoplasty scheduled for December 2025, but I canceled that appointment today. I intend to continue consulting with Dr. Scileppi for at least the next few years. Furthermore, I should note that in 2008, I received two syringes of lip filler for $2000. Dr. Scileppi advised that I only required one syringe, costing $700. My lips in 2008 were at best a 4.5, while my lips in 2025 are a perfect 10++++! Do not hesitate; run to Balance Aesthetics. You can express your gratitude later, and you are most welcome.
