Many celebrities are fans of chemical peels because of the beautiful glow peels give their skin. Chemical peels continue to be a popular procedure due to its minimally invasive nature and excellent results. If you’re looking for younger looking, glowing skin, take a look at the benefits of chemical peels and what they can do for you.
Are You a Good Candidate?
Chemical peels are a very versatile treatment, as they’re fine for both men and women, as well as for any skin type. Almost anyone who is looking for a healthy, youthful glow can benefit from this kind of procedure. Problems like fine lines, uneven skin tone, scarring and dull complexion are caused by everyday issues like acne, sun exposure, clogged pores and aging. There are various types of chemical peels to treat whatever skin problem you’re facing.
How They Work
A chemical peel is not as intimidating as it may sound. A chemical solution will be applied to your skin, and it will gently dissolve the skin’s upper layers. The skin heals itself as these layers are removed, creating new tissue and smoother, fresher skin. The strength of the peel and how long it is left on your skin is determined on a case by case basis, depending on your skin type and needs.
Primary Benefits
Chemical peels are a non-invasive skin treatment choice that offer tons of benefits, including:
- Diminishing fine lines and wrinkles
- Boosting confidence
- Little time required
- Improves appearance of sun damage
- Relatively inexpensive
- Vibrant skin
- Improved acne and scarring
- Improved texture
- Enhanced collagen growth
With such a wide spectrum of benefits, it’s no wonder chemical peels continue to be such a popular choice in skin retexturing and revitalization.
Types of Chemical Peels
Chemical Peels come in a variety of formulas. There’s likely a perfect type to meet your needs, whether it’s reduced acne scarring, clearer complexion or smoother skin you desire. Mild, or superficial, peels are formulated with Alpha hydroxy acids (AHA) or Beta hydroxy acids (BHA). These are often used to improve the appearance of sun-damaged and acne-prone skin.
Medium chemical peels are stronger. They’re meant to treat problems such as uneven skin tone, pigmentation issues, and surface wrinkles. The strength can be varied to meet your individual needs. Deep peels utilize the strongest solution but offer the most dramatic results. Deeper wrinkles and blotchiness are greatly reduced through the use of this maximum peel. Discomfort and redness may occur, along with a longer recovery time, when stronger chemical peels are used.
