Chemical Peel
Chemical Peel
Cosmetic chemical peels are a type of skin treatment that uses chemical solutions to remove the outermost layer of skin cells, revealing smoother, younger-looking skin underneath. Chemical peels can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, age spots, acne scars, and other skin imperfections.
There are different types of chemical peels, ranging from superficial peels that only remove the outermost layer of skin to deeper peels that penetrate deeper into the skin. The most commonly used chemical peels include alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peels.
AHAs are typically used for superficial peels and are derived from fruit and milk. They are effective for treating fine lines, acne, and uneven skin tone. BHAs are oil-soluble and can penetrate deeper into the pores, making them a good choice for treating acne-prone skin. TCA peels are deeper and can treat more severe skin issues such as deep wrinkles, scars, and hyperpigmentation.
