applied to the skin to remove the top layers to grow back to a smoother and
younger looking

Peel
Chemical peels can improve the skin's appearance. In this treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the skin, which makes it "blister" and eventually peel off. The new skin is usually smoother and less wrinkled than the old skin.
Chemical peel can be done at different depths –light, medium or deep- depending on your desired results. Each type of chemical peel uses a different chemical solution. Deeper chemical peels produce more-dramatic results but takes longer recovery times.
Light chemical peel
This type of chemical peel removes the outer layer of the skin –epidermis- and is used to treat fine wrinkles, acne, uneven skin tone and dryness.
Medium chemical peel
This solution removes skin cells from the epidermis and from portions of the upper part of the middle layer of skin –dermis to treat wrinkles, acne scars and uneven skin tone.
Deep chemical peel
A deep chemical peel removes skin cells from the epidermis and from portions of the mid to lower layer of the dermis to treat deeper wrinkles, scars of precancerous growth.
Chemical peel can be done on the face, neck, or hands. They can be used to:
-
Treat wrinkles caused by sun damage and aging
-
Improve the appearance of mild scars
-
Treat certain types of acne
-
Reduce age spots, freckles, and dark patches (melasma) due to pregnancy or taking birth control pills
-
Improve the look and feel of skin
