The Basics
A chemical peel is a technique used to improve the appearance and smooth the texture of the skin on the face, neck or hands. A chemical solution is applied to the skin that causes it to exfoliate and eventually peel off. The new, regenerated skin is usually smoother and less wrinkled than the old skin. There are three basic types of chemical peels: Superficial peel, medium peel and deep peel.
The procedure
A solution or combination of solutions is applied that removes old, dead skin cells. That process stimulates your body to start the rejuvenation of fresh, young skin cells, removing the outermost layer of the skin, a chemical peel can use for acne scar, age spots, aging skin, melasma, scars, wrinkles, among other.
Post-procedure
Treated areas take about 7 to 14 days to heal after a medium chemical peel, but redness might last for months. After a deep chemical peel, you'll experience severe redness and swelling. The new skin is also temporarily more sensitive to the sun, you will need to protect your skin from the sun to prevent changes in skin color. The skin is vulnerable after peels and resurfacing, and application of makeup prematurely will delay healing and risk causing infection, pigmentation changes, or scarring.
Results
Depending the type of peel, your skin will be noticeably smoother after the procedure, and the new layer of skin appears three to seven days after treatment. About two weeks after treatment, the skin will be fully healed.
