What are the Conditions Treated with Chemical Peels?

Aging is a normal process in life, which we all experience. Although you cannot stop time or its effects on your skin, chemical peels are the exception. This non-surgical cosmetic treatment helps to revitalize your skin, keeping it fresh always. Chemical peels use a chemical solution to improve your skin’s texture and tone.

The chemical solution used comprises vitamins and acids, which cause the skin to exfoliate when applied. This helps your skin to reveal the smooth skin underneath and treat a variety of skin-related complications. Some of the conditions treated using chemical peels are:

Acne

Superficial chemical peels are effective in addressing mild and moderate acne. These peels include salicylic and glycolic acids. These solutions have anti-inflammatory properties as they penetrate the skin and induce shedding. These properties help to reduce clogging of pores and oil secretion. In addition, more robust solutions are used to reduce the appearance of scars caused by acne.

Scarring

Chemical peels diminish the appearance and feel of spots for smooth skin. Therefore, it is essential to have an expert assess the depth of your scars so that a customized blend is made for you. In addition, chemical peels promote the exfoliation of skin-containing spots. This makes the scar less visible.

Crow’s Feet

Crow’s feet are the fine lines left on the face after making facial expressions. These fine lines are considered the first signs of aging. Crow’s feet appear due to loss of elasticity. Chemical peels target the affected areas and reduce the appearance of lines. In addition, peels are effective in removing the outer skin layer. This stimulates collagen production and cell regeneration.
