Chemical Peels
Unlock radiant, youthful skin with a chemical peel—an invigorating treatment that exfoliates, rejuvenates, and reveals a smoother, more even complexion.
Benefits of Cosmetic Chemical Peels:
-
Improved Skin Texture: They help to smooth rough, dry skin and reduce the appearance of acne scars or other imperfections.
-
Anti-Aging Effects: Chemical peels can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by promoting collagen production and removing dead skin cells.
-
Even Skin Tone: Helps to lighten hyperpigmentation, such as age spots, freckles, and sun damage, by exfoliating darkened skin cells.
-
Brightens Skin: Stimulates new skin cell turnover, revealing fresher, younger-looking skin.
-
Reduces Acne: By removing the dead skin cells that clog pores, chemical peels can help prevent and treat acne.
Types of Cosmetic Chemical Peels
Superficial Peels (Light Peels):
- What They Do: Target the outermost layer of skin (the epidermis) to remove dead skin cells.
- Common Acids Used: Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) such as glycolic acid or lactic acid, and sometimes beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) like salicylic acid.
- Best For: Dull skin, minor skin discoloration, fine lines, and mild acne.
- Recovery Time: Minimal; you might experience slight redness or peeling that lasts 1-3 days. No downtime required.
- Frequency: Can be done regularly (every 4-6 weeks)
Medium Peels:
- What They Do: Penetrate deeper into the skin, reaching the upper dermis (second layer of skin).
- Common Acids Used: Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) or a combination of glycolic acid and salicylic acid.
- Best For: Moderate skin issues like acne scars, age spots, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone.
- Recovery Time: More noticeable redness and peeling, lasting about 5-7 days. You may need some downtime to recover.
- Frequency: Typically done every 6-12 months.
