Glycolic Chemical Peel

Chemical peels exfoliate the outer layers of dead skin cells, revealing smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin beneath. Using a combination of acids and enzymes, chemical peels can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, and acne scars.

A glycolic chemical peel reduces uneven pigmentation, fine wrinkling, and general sun damage by removing the superficial layers of affected skin. The 70 percent glycolic acid formula is applied for the appropriate length of time and is then neutralized. Over the next few weeks, the skin sheds its outer layers to reveal fresh, smooth, evenly toned skin. Many areas of the face, neck, and chest can be successfully treated with a glycolic peel, including the lines and wrinkling around the mouth

Chemical Peels Correct:

1. Fine lines and wrinkles
2. Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
3. Acne scars and blemishes
4. Uneven skin texture and tone
5. Large pores and blackheads
6. Dull, tired-looking skin
7. Rough, dry skin
8. Age spots and melasma
9. Rough, scaly patches
10. Actinic keratosis

How Chemical Peels Work

Chemical peels use a combination of acids and enzymes to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin. The three main types of acids used in chemical peels are alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), and trichloroacetic acid (TCA). These acids break down the bonds between dead skin cells, allowing them to be sloughed off more easily. The enzymes in chemical peels also break down the proteins that hold dead skin cells together.

This exfoliation process stimulates cell turnover, encouraging the growth of new, healthy skin cells. Furthermore, some chemical peels also stimulate the production of collagen, a fibrous protein that holds skin tissues together, helping you achieve taut and firm skin. As a result, chemical peels can reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and acne scars, revealing smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin. The results depend on the depth of chemical peels, ranging from mild to deep.

Advantages of Chemical Peels:

1. Can be customized to target specific skin concerns and types
2. Non-invasive and require minimal downtime
3. Can be performed on various parts of the body, including the face, neck, chest, and hands
4. Stimulate collagen production, which improves skin texture and firmness
5. Can be used with other skincare treatments for enhanced results
6. Improves the effectiveness of skincare products
7. Improves overall skin tone and texture
