Chemical peels are a procedure that aims to accelerate skin exfoliation by the use of chemical substances resulting in renewed, healthier-looking skin and a more uniform complexion. This procedure is akin to getting your teeth cleaned by a hygienist. The result of regular treatments may even skin tone, clear acne, improve the appearance of aging skin and make dull complexions glow.
During the initial consultation, your skin care professional will evaluate your skin condition and recommend the appropriate peel regimen based on your needs.
HOW LONG WILL TREATMENT TAKE?
The complete treatment is expected to take 45 minutes, which includes ample time to address any questions you may have, and discuss your post-peel care. The actual application procedure is approximately 20 minutes. Tolerance to the procedure varies from patient to patient and the type of peel you receive. Tingling or burning sensations are normal and expected reactions. A handheld fan can be used during the procedure to minimize discomfort, which usually subsides in a few minutes.
RESULTS OF CHEMICAL PEELS
Mild to moderate redness is expected after any type of chemical peel procedure. Mild to moderate skin peeling may or may not occur. Since the new skin is more susceptible to sunburn, extra precautions should be taken to limit sun exposure for at least one week after the peel. Downtime can last from 3-7 days.
