So, what is a chemical peel? In a nutshell, chemical peels are a process which is used to improve the texture and smoothness of facial skin. A strong solution of chemicals is used which causes the skin to blister and peel. After an individual has gone through a chemical peel treatment, the new skin is typically more smooth and less wrinkled.
At this point, you may be wondering where to go to have this beautifying technique administered. While some chemical peels can be bought without a medical license, I would strongly recommend that you find a professional such as a dermatologist or plastic surgeon to do this for you.
There are several types of chemical peels being administered today:
1. Phenol peels - The strongest of all chemical peel solutions, phenol peels produce a very deep skin peel. The effects of this procedure are long lasting and improvements to an individual’s skin can be very dramatic. This method typically calls for a single treatment.
2. Beta hydroxy acid peels - Not as strong as some of the other peels, BHA peels do a good job at controlling oil, acne, and also removing dead skin cells.
3. Trichloroacetic acid peels - TCA peels are an intermediate to deep peeling agent, depending on the concentration used.
4. Alpha hydroxy acid peels - AHA peels are the mildest of all chemical peel methods and they are primarily used to treat dryness, fine wrinkles, acne, and uneven pigmentation.
5. Jessner's peel - A technique which combines the use of resorcinol, lactic, and salicylic acids.[edit] Retinoic acid peel.
