Chemical Peels have been used for many decades to revitalize and rejuvenate the skin. A
chemical peel is a controlled exfoliation of the skin caused by the application of a chemical
solution that sloughs off the dead cells from the skin’s surface, exposing more radiant,
unblemished and younger looking skin. This procedure is most commonly performed on the
face, hands and chest.
Superficial peels enhance skin texture and the deeper variety effect major changes in
wrinkling, scarring, and pigmentation. The deeper the peel penetrates, the more dramatic the
results.
Light Chemical Peels Improve:
- Dull complexions
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sun damaged skin
- Hyperpigmentation
- Melasma
The best results and improvement in the skin is obtained with multiple peels performed a few
weeks apart. However, a single peel will give visible results with a healthy, radiant glow.
How it works: Light peels take from 30 – 45 minutes and can be performed safely on
practically all skin types. The aesthetician swabs on a solution that removes the dead cells
from the skin's surface or may pobe deeper into the living layers of skin. Some clients may
seem a little pink following the treatment but there is no downtime and makeup can be
applied after treatment.
There are some more aggressive peels for more damaged skin that may result in more
downtime and burning. Your skin care professional can discuss these with you.
