Chemical Peels · Ocala, Florida
VI Peel, Perfect Derma Peel, ZO 3-Step, and PRX Derm Perfexion are all available at our Ocala office, where a credentialed team tells you plainly whether a peel is the right call.
The Candid Consult
A chemical peel puts a measured acid solution on your skin so damaged outer layers let go and newer skin comes through; every formula trades depth for downtime. Four run here: VI Peel and Perfect Derma Peel for pigment and tone, ZO 3-Step for texture and clarity in staged layers, and PRX Derm Perfexion for visible change with barely any peeling.
What sets Ocala apart is the recommendation itself. This is our smallest team, working to the standard Dr. Tali Arviv, MD set when she founded the practice in 2014, and it treats candour as part of the care: if a product at home has already irritated your skin, or a peel is simply not the right next step, you hear that before anything is booked.
Why This Location
Professional-strength acids deserve a higher bar than a drugstore shelf. Here is what stands behind ours.
This is the one Arviv office whose Google profile carries the Plastic surgeon category, with Dr. Ahmed Abdullah certified by the American Board of Surgery and the American Board of Plastic Surgery behind it.
Reviews of this office describe a team that treats an urgent skin reaction as urgent and gets you seen. One guest told that story in full, and you can read it below.
This office holds 4.8 stars across 89 Google reviews, our smallest review base. We keep earning that rating visit by visit instead of pointing at a bigger count.
And if your whole concern is dullness or dehydration instead of pigment or texture, a HydraFacial may get you there without any acid at all. Texture concerns alone sometimes call for microneedling instead, which rebuilds collagen through controlled needling.
What to Expect
Aftercare here tracks the dermatologic surgery society's chemical peel guidance, so the days after your visit hold no surprises.
Your provider asks what you already put on your skin before recommending a formula. At-home acids, retinoids, or recent reactions come out first, so nothing lands on skin that is still recovering.
Application takes minutes. Tingling or warmth builds with the depth of the formula chosen, and your provider narrates each sensation before it arrives.
Lighter formulas surface little more than a glow. Deeper ones flake for several days. Your instructions match the exact peel you received.
Repeat visits get paced around how your skin actually responds between peels, with the depth adjusted as your skin changes.
Your Routine Comes First
The consult opens with your own routine, because at-home acids and retinoids change what belongs on your skin and when. Four formulas run here, from the VI Peel through PRX Derm Perfexion.
Pigment or texture deeper than an acid reaches points at PicoWay or CO2 resurfacing, and you hear that at the consult before anything gets booked. Book a consult in Ocala with your routine written down.

Real Results

Individual results vary. These are real patients photographed at our offices; no photo is a promise of your own outcome, and only a consult can tell you what is realistic.
In Their Words
Guests here keep describing the same few things: a team that made room for them the day they needed it, staff they call first class and warm, and care good enough to keep them coming back for years. Read more reviews from guests across all three Florida locations.
“I struggled with dark spots under my eyes for over a year, I tried lots of over the counter solutions but nothing I tried worked. I reached out to Angela, at Arviv Medical Aesthetics, and she truly changed everything. After a consult, she recommended a treatment plan with ZO Skincare and guided me every step of the way.”
“I love coming in and Ashley is always so happy and positive when she greets me. And I loveee talking with my favorite esthetician Alexis and her services ! Can’t wait to get a facial with her! And I can’t forget about my Kit THE BEST M.A.!”
“Great experience at Arviv. The place is calm and the staff really know what they’re doing. I went in for a skin treatment and was very happy with the results. Would definitely go back.”
Individual results vary. Reviews describe one guest’s experience and are not a promise of outcome.
Worth the Drive
Ocala is our only inland location, roughly 35 miles from either coast, and guests travel in from Silver Springs Shores, Belleview, The Villages, and Dunnellon for the credentialed team and unhurried pace the reviews keep describing. Closer to the Gulf? VI Peel, Perfect Derma Peel, ZO 3-Step, and PRX Derm Perfexion all run at our Tampa flagship, booked through the same calendar as this office.
Address & Phone
Hours
Yes, and please call us instead of waiting it out. Tell us what you used and how your skin responded; an urgent reaction gets treated as an urgent visit, and no peel gets recommended until your skin has settled.
Several of our formulas target pigment, but the actives already in your routine change what your provider recommends and when, so bring the ingredient list. Melasma also tends to return with sun exposure, as the AAD’s melasma overview notes, so the plan becomes ongoing maintenance. Pigment or texture sitting deeper than acids reach may point toward CO2 laser resurfacing instead. Stubborn pigment alone, without any texture change, occasionally responds better to a targeted PicoWay session first.
Credentials you can check. Ocala is the one Arviv location whose Google profile carries the Plastic surgeon category, with Dr. Ahmed Abdullah’s board certifications behind it. Those credentials back the practice as a whole, which is exactly why "no, not yet" is an answer you can get here.
Not by the same rhythm. Search interest in skin treatments around Ocala stays fairly level all year while Tampa’s jumps each fall, so your provider paces a series by how your skin responds instead of by the calendar. If your plan runs several visits, financing can spread the cost across them.
