Chemical peels are one of the most versatile and effective skincare treatments available. This comprehensive guide covers everything you need to know.
What is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a skin-resurfacing procedure where a chemical solution is applied to the skin. This solution exfoliates and eventually peels off, revealing regenerated skin that is typically smoother and less wrinkled.
Types of Chemical Peels
Superficial Peels
Use mild acids like alpha-hydroxy acid. Gently exfoliate the outermost layer of skin. Best for mild discoloration and rough texture.
Medium Peels
Use trichloroacetic acid or glycolic acid. Reach the middle layers of skin. Effective for age spots, fine lines, and moderate discoloration.
Deep Peels
Use phenol or stronger acids. Penetrate the middle layer deeply. Best for deep wrinkles, scars, or significant sun damage.
