Chemical Peels Bring Back your Beauty

By Elen Hanszen


The older we get, the more that wrinkles and lines begin to appear and gain prominence, age spots can occur, and we would like to return to our younger, nicer looking skin. When we start to notice these imperfections, for a lot of us, it begins to affect our self esteem and confidence. When this becomes a major concern, a skin peel is a possible answer to this, and for some, it is the best option.

Chemical skin peels are a simple and effective way to restore your skin's natural beauty. Chemical peels will help you reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on your skin. Fresher skin will be revealed underneath the peel, getting rid of dead cells and making skin look fresher and cleaner and of course, it will help make wrinkles less significant.

A skin peel will also help to reduce some other types of skin issues like liver or age spots and can reduce the prominence of freckles also. Chemical peels will result in skin that is more smooth and bright, and will have a more youthful appearance. For those who have had minor or major issues with acne, a chemical peel; inflammation will be reduced, and acne will be less prominent.

While something like a skin product can take weeks on end of constant usage to see results, a chemical peel is something that is over with in several sessions, or just a one time sitting. These are not seriously invasive surgical procedures, like other options in the plastic surgery choices available. A typical skin collagen enhancing cream that can be purchased will usually have only a slight effect, but a chemical peels can have a dramatic effect that is long lasting.

Calling it a "peel" says it all; new cells are encouraged to grow as the rough layers and dead skin on the surface on your face are removed. As newer skin grows to replace the top layers, lines and blemishes will become more difficult to see underneath the fresh skin.

A superficial chemical peel is not painful and therefore no pain relief is needed before, during or after the procedure. Typically, the patient will return for more superficial chemical peel treatments every second week or once a week, for a total of about 6 times for optimal results. A peel has very minimal risk when it is more superficial. For a few days after a skin peel, the side effects are still noticeable. However, some individuals may experience hyperpigmentation, or changes to the look and colouring of the skin afterwards. If you have a deep peel then it may actually inhibit the skin's pigmenting ability.

To make the skin heal more speedily following the procedure, a patient should clean the skin often and moisturize, this will promote healing and stop infections or rashes. Sunscreen is also another recommendation that physicians will usually give a patient before having a skin peel.
