Chemical Peels

What is a chemical peel?

There's nothing quite like the power of a good chemical peel. This tried-and-true skin rejuvenating treatment is a quick and effective way to smooth the skin's texture and tone via a simple exfoliation process. Acids are the primary peeling agents used in professionally-administered peels, but there's still plenty to know about these skin-perfecting treatments.

benefits

Removing dead skin helps to stimulate collagen, and collagen is the cornerstone of plump, youthful skin. The acid used in your peel will determine the primary benefits seen. Although most estheticians use chemical peels on the face, they also can treat the neck, chest, and hands.

Some of the benefits of chemical peels include:

• Stimulating collagen production
• Light, gentle exfoliation
• Decreased appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Improvement of hyperpigmentation, discoloration, and spots
• Clearing up acne
• Improving the common signs of aging and sun damage
• Decrease the appearance of melasma

Commonly used acids include lactic and citric for a light exfoliation, glycolic to treat wrinkles and minimal hyperpigmentation, salicylic acid for acne, and TCA for more prominent pigment and signs of aging.
