Understanding Chemical Peels
Chemical peels use specially formulated solutions to exfoliate the skin’s outer layers. Depending on the peel’s ingredients, strength, and application, treatment may work on the superficial or deeper layers of the skin.
The purpose of a chemical peel is to improve the appearance of skin texture, tone, and selected skin concerns. Different peels produce different levels of exfoliation and recovery, so treatment should be selected by a qualified professional.
A medical grade chemical peel may use stronger formulations and requires appropriate assessment, application, and aftercare guidance. Not every peel is suitable for every skin type.
