What is a Chemical Peel?

Chemical peels are intended to remove the outermost layers of the skin improving and smoothing the texture and appearance of the skin. They can be applied to the face, hands, and neck.

During this procedure, chemical solutions will be applied to the area being treated, which causes the skin to exfoliate and eventually peel off.

There are different levels of chemical peels – Light, Medium, and Deep. Your esthetician will access your skin and recommend the best level for you.

How Chemical Peels Can Help You Achieve Long-Term Goals

Chemical peels have several long term benefits, in addition to their more immediate effects. Here's how:

1. Stimulation of Collagen Production: Chemical peels can stimulate the production of collagen, a protein that provides strength and structure to the skin. Collagen helps in maintaining the skin's elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Over time, increased collagen production can lead to firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
2. Reduction of Hyperpigmentation: Chemical peels can be effective in reducing hyperpigmentation, such as age spots, sunspots, and melasma. The chemical solution removes the damaged outer layers of the skin, which contain excess pigmentation, and promotes the growth of new, evenly toned skin cells. Regular treatments can help fade discoloration and achieve a more even complexion.
3. Improvement in Skin Texture and Tone: Chemical peels exfoliate the skin by removing dead skin cells and stimulating cell turnover. This process can lead to a smoother texture and a more even skin tone. Chemical peels can address various skin concerns, including roughness, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation, resulting in an overall improvement in skin quality.
4. Reduction of Acne and Breakouts: Chemical peels can be beneficial for individuals struggling with acne and frequent breakouts. They help to unclog pores, remove excess oil, and reduce inflammation. By removing the top layers of skin and promoting skin cell regeneration, chemical peels can help prevent future breakouts and improve the appearance of acne scars.
5. Increased Absorption of Skincare Products: By removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, chemical peels can enhance the absorption of skincare products. After a peel, your skin is more receptive to the active ingredients in serums, moisturizers, and other treatments, allowing them to penetrate deeper into the skin and provide enhanced benefits.

It's important to note that the long-term benefits of chemical peels depend on several factors, including the type and strength of the peel, the individual's skin type, and their specific skin concerns. Our team can help you find the perfect chemical peel for you.
