CHEMICAL PEELS BENEFITS

WHAT CAN A CHEMICAL PEEL DO FOR YOU?

Chemical peels renew the skin for a significantly refreshed appearance, improving virtually every aspect of how your skin looks and feels. Some of the most common concerns that are treated with chemical peels include: wrinkles due to sun damage and aging, fine lines around the eyes and mouth, mild scarring (including acne scars), active acne, uneven skin tone, and textural problems.

The versatility of formulas used in chemical peels is also an attractive feature for many patients. While light chemical peels involve very little recovery, deep peels can produce dramatic results. Your chemical peel will be designed to suit your treatment goals as well as your lifestyle.

ARE YOU A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR A CHEMICAL PEEL?

And which chemical peel is right for you?

Chemical peels are an excellent option for most patients and are generally safe. However, there are some instances in which patients should seek an alternative treatment for their concerns. Patients with light hair and skin tones are typically considered ideal candidates for chemical peels, as those with darker skin tones may be at a greater risk of discoloration.

However, that does not mean that such patients cannot safely receive the right chemical peel. Ft. Lauderdale chemical peel experts at Avalor Vitality Clinics can help you determine the perfect chemical peel. During your consultation, your situation will be assessed from every angle to customize your chemical peel treatment.

TYPES OF CHEMICAL PEELS

In general, chemical peels are characterized by their potency and how deeply they penetrate the skin. The deeper the solution is absorbed by the skin, the more dramatic the results and, therefore, the more significant the recovery. Selecting your chemical peel strength is all about balancing your desired effect with your commitment to letting your skin heal properly.

LIGHT CHEMICAL PEELS

Light (or superficial) peels gently exfoliate the skin using mild ingredients, such as alpha-hydroxy or salicylic acid, and only affect the outermost layer of your skin. Light peels are applied with a brush, cotton ball, or gauze. You may experience a mild stinging sensation, and your skin will whiten as the solution takes effect. Then, your provider will remove the peel and apply a neutralizing solution.Recovery from a light chemical peel is minimal and lasts approximately four to seven days. Your skin may appear lighter or darker during this period.

MEDIUM CHEMICAL PEELS

Medium peels typically contain ingredients like trichloroacetic or glycolic acid to penetrate slightly deeper than light peels, reaching the middle layer of skin. Your providing specialist will use a sponge, gauze, or special applicator to apply your medium chemical peel. After the skin whitens, your specialist will apply a cold compress to your skin, and you may experience some stinging for up to 20 minutes. It will take about five to seven days to recover after a medium chemical peel. However, some patients may experience lingering redness after their treatment. The treated area is also likely to swell and crust while it heals.

DEEP CHEMICAL PEELS

Deep chemical peels penetrate all the way through the middle layer of your skin for the most significant transformation of your skin. Deep peels often contain phenol or trichloroacetic acid and require sedation. Your specialist will apply your peel in 15-minute stints until your skin turns white or gray. Recovery following a deep chemical peel is substantial and should be carefully considered when developing your treatment plan. Swelling, redness, and burning or throbbing are common. The initial healing phase will last about two weeks, although you may experience redness that lasts for several months. It is crucial to follow your care instructions meticulously to aid healing and achieve the best results.
