What is a Chemical Peel?

What You Should Know about Chemical Peels
So, what is a chemical peel? It’s a dermatological procedure using combinations of gentle acids including hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid, and trichloroacetic acid, to flush away dead skin cells, debris, and toxins from the surface of your skin. A chemical peel reveals new, younger-looking, and more vibrant skin underneath.
A chemical peel is an excellent solution to help with:
- Fine lines, wrinkles, and creases
- Acne and acne scarring
- Age spots and sun damage
- Freckles and hyperpigmentation
- Uneven, dull skin tone
- Rough, scaly skin
Chemical peels aren’t just for your face. They can also be used on your chest, hands, arms, legs, and back, to minimize skin imperfections, blemishes, scars, and other flaws. They can renew your skin, helping you and your skin look younger and more beautiful.
When you choose a chemical peel you will enjoy a treatment that is:
- Minimally invasive, because there are no incisions or sutures involved
- Convenient, because a chemical peel requires little to no downtime
- Safe, because chemical peels have been rigorously tested and approved by the FDA
Chemical peels can be used every one to two weeks, for up to six treatments. Your dermatologist may recommend maintenance treatments to keep you looking your best.
