CHEMICAL PEEL

Chemical peels, which remove the dead cells on the outer layer of the dermis, areessential to maintaining healthy, beautiful, age-resistant skin.

Regular chemical peels help to reverse the signs of aging, improve skin tone and color, stimulate collagen production and diminish acne. Safe and effective chemical peels are performed at the dermatologist’s, with a trained medical professional determining which chemical peeling agent is most appropriate, according to the individual’s skin type and condition. Choices include glycolic (sugar) acid, lactic (milk) acid, TCA (trichloracetic acid) or beta acids. After most chemical peels, the skin immediately looks more healthy, supple and radiant, the complexion fresh and clear. Some chemical peels require a brief recovery time before the optimal result is evidenced.
