Chemical Peel

A chemical peel is a cosmetic treatment in which a chemical solution is applied to the skin to remove the outer layers of dead and damaged skin cells. The procedure is designed to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, age spots, acne scars, and other skin imperfections.

There are various types of chemical peels, including light, medium, and deep peels, which differ in the strength of the solution used and the depth of skin penetration. Light peels typically use alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs) and are best for mild skin imperfections, while medium peels use trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and are used to address more moderate skin imperfections. Deep peels use phenol and are the most aggressive type of peel, and are used to treat severe skin imperfections, such as deep wrinkles and significant sun damage.

Chemical peels are performed in a doctor’s office or outpatient setting, and typically take 30 minutes to an hour to complete. The skin may be red, swollen, and flaky for several days following the procedure, depending on the type of peel used. Sun protection and proper skincare are important to maintain the results of a chemical peel.

It is important to choose a qualified, experienced, and reputable injector to perform your chemical peel to ensure the best possible results and minimize the risks of complications. You should also discuss the type of peel being used, the expected results, and any potential risks or side effects before undergoing treatment.
