CHEMICAL PEELS
Chemical Peel is a technique used to smoothen and improve the texture of the skin. In the procedure, a chemical solution is applied to the skin to remove its top layers and reveal the smoother and healthier skin underneath. Chemical peels can reduce or improve fine lines and wrinkles, active acne, acne scars, uneven skin tone and other skin imperfections. Your doctor chooses from three types of Chemical Peels – Light Peel, Medium Peel, and Deep Peel depending on your skin concern.
How chemical peel works?
- First face is cleansed with a mild cleanser
- Depending on skin texture of face or body diamond microdermabrasion also known as skin polishing is done which exfoliates dead layer of skin and helps in better peel penetration in skin.
- Chemical solution based on glycolic acid/ Retinol/ trichloroacetic acid/ phenol/ Lactic acid is applied on skin depending on skin concern and then neutralized after few minutes or it is leave on for few hours depending on skin concern and peel done.
- Depending on peel done your skin can peel off for 4-5 days.
