Wishing you had clearer skin? Blemishes show up seemingly overnight and then stubbornly refuse to move, regardless of which over-the-counter treatment we use. It’s time for a more effective solution: a chemical peel!
Chemical peels make the skin clearer, reduce the appearance of age spots, and do not require the patient to have any particular skin type. Doctors have found that this method works quite well for patients and often offers quick results.
Clear Up Acne
Chemical peels strip away dead cells from the epidermis and pave the way for new cells to take over. Since new skin cells haven’t yet been damaged by sun exposure, wind, or pollution, they are healthy and do not clog the area like dead cells do. Oil can drain from the pores naturally instead of building up, allowing the acne to disappear.
Reduce Age Lines
As we age, fine lines have a way of creeping in faster than we expect. Many people ignore them, feeling more and more self-conscious every day. Loose, dry, and undernourished skin shouldn’t be ignored – it should be rejuvenated. Smooth out those wrinkles with a chemical peel to start looking your age again, not older.
Soften Scars
The chemical peel procedure does away with the acne scars associated with adult and childhood acne. How? By stimulating collagen production to fill in these depressions and marks, making the skin look smooth and fresh once more.
Erase Pigmentation Issues
Dark spots on the skin come about because of age, hormonal imbalances, and excessive exposure to the sun. Brown spots are eased away as a result of this treatment, allowing the skin to have more even pigmentation.
The Chemical Peel Treatment
The chemical peel treatment is very safe and inexpensive. After the face is cleansed and the eyes are protected, the chemicals used in the peel are carefully applied to the surface of the skin. There, they are able to slowly penetrate down into the layers below the surface, stimulating the healing response in the tissues.
After your peel session is complete, the damaged and dead skin cells that have been treated will gradually slough away over time, revealing fresh, new, beautiful skin. Stronger peels need fewer treatment sessions and reach deeper into the skin layers, while weaker peels may need more sessions and are better for treatment of more surface-level issues.
Once the peel treatment is complete and your skin has healed and recovered, your skin will have a clear and youthful appearance. You’ll be able to enjoy the rejuvenating effects of your chemical peel for quite some time.
