Chemical Peel

Chemical peels are forms of liquid solutions which can be applied to skin to remove dead skin cells and promote regeneration and new cell growth.

They are used in the treatment of:

-Blemishes

-Irregular pigmentation

-To reduce facial lines by tightening the skin

-Acne scarring

They typically use trichloroacetic, salicylic or glycolic acid. The effectiveness of a chemical peel – and the normal recovery time – will vary depending on the depth of the treatment.

Typically uses glycolic peels with minimal downtime needed. The peels can be used in conjunction with medical microdermabrasion, depending on your skin needs.

After any chemical peel, irrespective of the depth, it is extremely important to wear a SPF 50 sun cream for at least a month following the procedure, Since the new skin exposed by the treatment is especially prone to sun damage
