Chemical Peel

While dermal fillers can erase lines and wrinkles, one of the keys to looking younger lies in how healthy our skin looks. Chemical peeling is one of the oldest beauty secrets in the book. Chemical peels involve the application of a chemical solution to the surface of the skin to produce the careful removal of its outer layers. The amount of skin removed will depend on the type of chemical used, the strength of this product and how long it is left on the skin.

Chemical peels come in different strengths ranging from superficial peels, which have minimal downtime and can be done in your lunch hour, to deep peels which can give dramatic results but which involve a longer recovery time and more serious side effects. You will usually require a course of treatments with superficial peels but they can also be a great way to give your skin a boost before a special occasion. Although they are most commonly used on the face, chemical peels can also rejuvenate the skin on the back of the hands and the décolleté, which can give away your age as much as your face. Concerns that Chemical peels are great are imperfections such as Dry skin, Oily skin, Acne, Acne scarring, Lines and wrinkles, Pigmentation, Sun damage and dull or lifeless skin.
