A chemical peel consists of using acids to exfoliate the skin and encourage cell regeneration and collagen production. It is therefore indicated to get rid of wrinkles and remove blemishes and other skin imperfections.
It can be performed at any time of the year and on any type of skin. It is a non-invasive, fast and simple procedure in which an irritating chemical solution is applied onto the skin to help exfoliate the top layers. The result is immediate, obtaining a rejuvenated, more luminous, hydrated and smoother skin.
Depending on how deep the chemical penetrates, peels can be superficial, medium or deep. The deeper the peel, the greater the stimulation and skin repair.
It is important to follow the physician’s recommendations and take proper care of your skin before and after the treatment. Preparing your skin for a chemical peel helps agents to penetrate more efficiently and even reduce any discomfort during the application. Over the next 15 days after the peel, avoid prolonged or direct sun exposure and use sunscreen with a very high sun protection factor (SPF 50).
