Chemical peel
In a chemical peel, the top layers of the skin are removed by applying a chemical solution to the skin. The skin that regenerates is softer. You might need to have a mild or medium peel more than once to obtain the desired results.
Chemical peeling is a method of skin regeneration. You can select a chemical peel from one of three depths, depending on the concerns you're trying to address with the procedure.
The skin's outer layer is removed by a gentle (superficial) chemical peel (epidermis). It is used to treat dryness, uneven skin tone, fine wrinkles, and acne. Between two to five weeks, you can have a mild peeling.
Skin cells from the epidermis and some of the upper layers of your middle layer of skin are removed during a medium chemical peel (dermis). Uneven skin tone, acne scars, and wrinkles are all treated with it. To get or keep the desired outcome, you might need to re-do the steps.
Even more skin cells are removed during a thorough chemical peel. For more severe wrinkles, scars, or precancerous growths, your doctor could suggest one. To achieve the desired results, you won't need to repeat any steps.
