Chemical Peels

Chemical Peels

A chemical peel is a treatment for skin, particularly facial skin, which helps improve and smoothen the texture of the skin.

The operative principal is the use of a chemical solution that causes the dead skin to peel away, causing regeneration of skin which is usually smoother and less wrinkled than the old skin.

Based on your skin type, your doctor will advise you on the type, strength and combination of peels suitable for your skin.

BENEFITS OF PEELS
REDUCTION OR REMOVAL OF BLOTCHY PATCHES

Skin blotches can create a dull complexion, and typically do not clear up on their own. A chemical peel can penetrate deep enough to remove the layer of darker skin to even out your skin tone

REMOVING THE APPEARANCE OF SUN DAMAGE

The sun is the leading cause of fine lines and wrinkles, and these can be prevented with a healthy skincare regiment. Chemical peels remove the layer of skin that may be affected by sun damage to leave behind a fresh and smooth layer.

ACNE MANAGEMENT

If you’re suffering from acne, a chemical peel may be a valuable part of your treatment program. Lighter peels such as AHAs and glycolic acid peels are more appropriate for sensitive and acne-prone skin, and can help clear up inflammation and even acne scars after a few months of treatment.

LIGHTENING OF THE SKIN

The change of seasons, poor diet, or even a lack of rest can leave you with a dull and ruddy complexion. Powerful chemical peels made with phenol acid are used to treat deep wrinkles, and can turn your skin lighter as a side effect.

LOW DOWNTIME

Most peels require just one or two treatments before the cells begin to turnover; you’ll start to see effects in just a few days with little recovery time required.

SMOOTHER SKIN

Revealing a fresh layer of skin means you’ll have a smooth and youthful appearance and improved skin texture.

AGE SPOT REMOVAL

Age spots can be difficult to hide under makeup, but chemical peels can help reduce pigmentation and even out your skin tone.

FAST AND SIMPLE PROCEDURES

The process of applying the chemical peel solution and letting it set rarely takes longer than 15-20 minutes. You can be in and out of the doctor’s office within an hour.

IMPROVED COLLAGEN GROWTH

Glycolic acid peels in particular will help with collagen production; collagen is a building block of skin tissue that creates a strong and supple skin surface.

BETTER SKIN QUALITY

Removing dead skin cells regularly will freshen up the skin and leave it silky smooth; chemical peels help remove dead skin cells and will even out the skin tone to leave you with a fresh and youthful glow.
