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. A skin peel is a good solution for those who are having issues that are a result of their aging appearance.

A good way to rejuvenate skin is the use of a chemical skin peel, to enable the skin to look younger. The prominence of wrinkles and lines on the face are less pronounced after a chemical peel. Skin peels can remove the dead cells on your skins top layer which can appear as rough skin to reveal more radiant skin which is free from very fine lines.

Freckles, age spots, and liver spots are reduced dramatically after a skin peel, this is a time tested process. Chemical peels will result in skin that is more smooth and bright, and will have a more youthful appearance. Chemical peels also have a very positive effect on people suffering from acne; they can reduce the inflammation and pimples in acne sufferers.

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. Also the procedures aren't as drastic, invasive and permanent as some plastic surgery techniques. 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. It is usually recommended that a course of six peels is given one or two weeks apart, to get the best results from superficial chemical peels. The more superficial the peel, the less risk is attached to it. The side effects of a superficial peel often last only a few days. However, some individuals may experience hyperpigmentation, or changes to the look and colouring of the skin afterwards. The capacity for skin to produce pigment is sometimes affected after a deeper skin peel.

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.
