Getting a Chemical Peel
What do chemical peels do?
Chemical peels are a form of exfoliation that can be used to give your skin a fresh and renewed look. By applying this type of treatment, the top layer of skin is removed, revealing the healthier skin beneath it. As well as giving the complexion an even, glowing look, chemical peels can also help to reduce wrinkles and fine lines, smooth out rough patches, brighten sun spots and discoloration, clear away blemishes and acne marks and even reduce redness. It’s no surprise that chemical peels have become incredibly popular amongst people looking for a simple way to instantly enhance their appearance!
What do I need to know before getting a chemical peel?
When it comes to chemical peels, getting the right information beforehand is key! Before you book your appointment, make sure you’re aware of what chemical peels are and why someone may be a good candidate.
Chemical peels use chemical solutions to exfoliate the skin and reduce or diminish signs of aging, acne scars or pigmentation issues. You should also consider if there are any medical conditions that would limit your ability to get a chemical peel. Additionally, depending on the type of chemical peel you may choose, you’ll want to talk with our aesthetician about any potential risks for skin irritation, downtime or other side effects.
What should you avoid after a chemical peel?
After a chemical peel, it’s essential to take proper care of your skin. You should avoid exposing your skin to harsh sunlight or UV rays, as the peel will make you more sensitive to the sun than usual.
Additionally, stay away from heat sources like saunas and steam rooms, as well as vigorous exercise that may cause sweating. Make sure to use a gentle face cleanser after the procedure and minimize scrubbing or exfoliation for at least a week or two. Also, gently pat your skin dry with a clean towel instead of rubbing it, and keep moisturizers on hand to prevent any over-drying or irritating your newly sensitive skin.
Taking these steps can help ensure that you get the best possible outcome from your chemical peel!
How long do the results last?
Chemical peels can be a great way to dramatically improve your skin’s appearance and texture. But, after you have done one, naturally you’re going to want to know how long the results will last. The answer depends on the depth of peel that you do, as this determines the intensity of the results and their longevity.
Generally speaking, superficial peels like glycolic acid can last up to a month-and-a-half; mid level peels such as trichloroacetic (TCA) acid will last 4-6 months, and deep chemical treatments such as phenol are more powerful and thus yield longer lasting effects with results persisting up to an impressive 5 years!
