Achieve Brighter, Smoother Skin with a Chemical Peel Treamtent

Chemical peels are a type of skin resurfacing treatment that involves the use of a chemical solution to remove the top layer of skin. The solution is applied to the skin, causing the outer layers of skin to peel off, revealing new, smoother skin underneath. Chemical peels can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and acne scars, and can be performed on the face, neck, and hands.

There are several different types of chemical peels, including light, medium, and deep peels. Light peels, also known as superficial peels, are the mildest form of chemical peel and are typically used to improve the appearance of mild imperfections such as uneven skin tone and fine lines. Medium peels, also known as medium depth peels, are more aggressive and are used to improve the appearance of deeper wrinkles and acne scars. Deep peels, also known as deep depth peels, are the most aggressive form of chemical peel and are used to treat severe skin imperfections such as deep wrinkles and scarring.

This procedure is performed by a trained and licensed dermatology professional in-office. A numbing cream may be applied to the treatment area to minimize any discomfort. The chemical solution is then applied to the skin and left on for a set amount of time, after which it is neutralized and removed.

After the procedure, the skin may be red and slightly swollen, and may peel or flake for a few days to a week, depending on the type of peel. Most people see improvement in the texture and tone of their skin after just one treatment, although multiple treatments may be necessary to achieve optimal results.
