What Are Chemical Peels?

A chemical peel is a form of cosmetic and dermatologic treatment that involves the removal of the top layer of the skin. Pharmaceutical-grade chemical peelings provide elevated and advanced exfoliation which involves clever use of ingredients such as kojic acid, glycolic acid, and trichloroacetic acid, to guarantee a radiant and smooth complexion. Depending on the skin condition and skin type, the patient may be required to undergo this procedure more than once in order to gain the desired results.

What Are They Used For?

When formulated properly, chemical peels can significantly reduce signs of aging such as wrinkles, fine lines, age spots, and sun damage.

Chemical peels are also effective means of removing various skin conditions such as hyperpigmentation, blemishes, uneven skin tone, poor skin texture, acne, rosacea, and more. Chemical peels eliminate bacteria through exfoliation which prevents acne inflammation, while removing excess collagen in order to prevent the formation of bumpy and raised acne scars.
