THE CHEMICAL PEEL SOLUTION FOR YOUR SKIN
THE CHEMICAL PEEL SOLUTION FOR YOUR SKIN
If you’re unfamiliar with chemical peels, the term itself could send you running in the other direction. Chemical peels are a great solution for a range of skin concerns, from wrinkles to acne to hyperpigmentation, and the skin’s overall appearance. In this treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the skin, which makes it “blister” and eventually peels off. The new skin is usually smoother and less wrinkled than the old skin. So if you’re in search of a way to get brighter, clearer, more youthful-looking skin, a chemical peel could be the answer.
REDUCE FINE LINES AND WRINKLES
Chemical peels reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by removing the outer layer of your skin to reveal a new layer that is fresh, smooth, and unlined. Sometimes a light peel is sufficient for addressing surface wrinkles. Depending on your cosmetic goals, a moderate or deep peel may be a better solution.
MINIMIZE SUN DAMAGE
A chemical peel benefits patients with sun tanning and hyper-pigmentation as well. Hyper-pigmentation causes some patches of skin to appear darker than others due to continuous exposure in the sun and sometimes due to certain diseases. A mild chemical peel can help heal your sun spots, freckles, and other pigmentation problems. Sun damage can also age your skin, causing fine lines and blotchiness. With a chemical peel, you can ease these symptoms by treating your wrinkles to appear younger!
IMPROVES ACNE
A few studies have reported that chemical peels containing salicylic acid reduce acne by 47-75%, and 50-95% of patients saw their acne significantly improved with peels containing glycolic acid a well. Most chemical peels that treat acne are on the lighter side, as acne is typically a surface skin issue.
SHRINKS THE APPEARANCE OF SCARS
Moderate chemical peels treat both surface acne and some light scarring by penetrating more deeply into the skin. For diminishing the appearance of more significant acne scars, a deeper peel is required. One clinical study found that a phenol peel reduced acne scars in 100% of participants, with the overall severity of the scars improved by a mean of 75.12%.
AUGMENTS SKIN TONE AND TEXTURE
In addition to addressing your current skin issues, a chemical peel treatment also stimulates the growth of fresh, new skin. This rejuvenates the overall tone and texture of your skin, giving you a healthy, pretty glow.
MAXIMIZE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF SKINCARE PRODUCTS
Chemical peels remove the top layer of dead skin that stands between you and the maximum effect of your skincare products. Once the dead skin is gone, your products will absorb into your skin more fully, allowing the smallest amount of that expensive night cream to go a long way.
