Beauty Refreshment Using a Chemical Peel

By Elen Hanszen


We all want smooth, unblemished skin and this feeling increases as we grow old and start seeing signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles and age spots. When we start to notice these imperfections, for a lot of us, it begins to affect our self esteem and confidence. If you too are worried about your skin condition and are looking for a reliable way to restore your skin then a skin peel could be your solution.

A remedy that has a significant effect in order to revive a more youthful skin appearance is a chemical skin peel. Your face will have less obvious signs of age on it, such as fine lines and wrinkles. Skin peels can remove the dead cells on your skins top layer which can appear as rough skin to reveal more radiant skin which is free from very fine lines.

A skin peel will also help to reduce some other types of skin issues like liver or age spots and can reduce the prominence of freckles also. Softer, smoother looking skin will result after a patient goes through the process of getting a chemical peel. Chemical peels also have a very positive effect on people suffering from acne; they can reduce the inflammation and pimples in acne sufferers.

One of the advantages of the chemical peel over beauty products is that it can be done in one sitting or in a few sessions instead of waiting for results after weeks or months product applications. Many plastic surgery solutions are permanent and more invasive for the patient, and a peel is nowhere close to that level. The length and resulting look of a procedure like a chemical peel will be a much more noticeable effect than a simple beauty cream that claims to increase collagen levels.

A peel does what it sounds like; it actually removes layers of skin to expose the underlying cells and causes new cells to grow. New, blemish and wrinkle-free skin will cover up and reduce the look of wrinkles and other kinds of blemishes.

During the whole process and pre and post procedure, there is no need for pain management because a chemical peel does not cause pain to patients. For many, six superficial chemical peels are optimal, every week or 2, until the desired effect is achieved. A peel has very minimal risk when it is more superficial. For a few days after a skin peel, the side effects are still noticeable. Although rare, hyperpigmentation has been known to be a side effect, and skin in some cases will appear to have a colour change. The capacity for skin to produce pigment is sometimes affected after a deeper skin peel.

Maintenance is required for all kinds of skin peels afterwards, by using moisturizer, and frequent cleaning that will make skin heal faster and more smoothly, and prevent problems such as infection. Daily sunscreen usage is something that a doctor will typically suggest in many cases, leading up to the peel.
