Chemical Peels
What are Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels are a very popular aesthetic treatment designed to improve the skin’s texture, tone, and overall appearance. At A New You Skin & Body Clinic, we offer several medical-grade chemical peel treatments to help you achieve smoother, more radiant skin.
Chemical peels are designed to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin. Depending on the strength and type of peel, the solution can target the superficial, medium, or deep layers of the skin. This exfoliation process unclogs pores, eliminates dead skin cells, and promotes the growth of new, healthy skin cells.
Chemical peels have been used for over a century to treat various skin conditions and improve skin appearance. Modern chemical peels have evolved to include a variety of formulations and strengths, allowing for customized treatments tailored to individual skin needs.
Common Types of Chemical Peels
- Superficial Peels: Use mild acids like alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) to gently exfoliate the outer layer of the skin. These peels are ideal for treating minor skin imperfections and improving overall skin texture.
- Medium Peels: Use stronger acids like trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to penetrate the middle layers of the skin. These peels are effective for treating moderate wrinkles, acne scars, and pigmentation issues.
- Deep Peels: Use powerful acids like phenol to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin. These peels are used for more severe skin concerns, such as deep wrinkles and significant sun damage.
Benefits of Chemical Peels
Exfoliating the skin and stimulating collagen production give the skin a more youthful appearance. Chemical peels are effective in lightening dark spots and other forms of hyperpigmentation, leading to a more even skin tone. Additionally, by eliminating the outer layer of dead skin cells, chemical peels improve the skin’s capacity to absorb skincare products, making the products more effective.
