What is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel, also known as chemexfoliation, may sound a little intimidating or harsh, but a chemical peel is a viable solution for people who want to treat trauma or injury to their skin. These peels use chemicals that remove layers from your skin, but it’s important to understand that peels are not damaging and can be used for all types of skin.
Chemical peels allow you to get new skin after old layers come off, and this new skin can reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scars, or other skin injuries. You may even notice that your face has more life to it because this treatment can make you have a bright complexion.
This treatment is mostly used on the face, neck, or hands, but there are some variations of where practitioners have used it.
What to Know About Peels
Many people don’t want to try a peel because they have so many questions, but the process is relatively straightforward.
Before your treatment, make sure you’re not wearing any lotion, makeup, or perfume because you want your skin to be clear and ready for the peeling process.
You’ll want to be ready for some healing time. There are different types of chemical peels. Higher-strength peels will remove more layers of skin, and they often require up to 7 days of recovery, whereas less intense peels don’t always result in skin peeling because they only remove the outer skin layer. Thus, you can choose your peel based on what your present needs are.
It’s also important to note that many people prefer to have multiple peel sessions. While one peel can certainly give you results, many people find peels to be a great way to maintain a healthy skincare routine and maintain the skin they want to have.
