What is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a cosmetic procedure that involves applying a carefully formulated chemical solution to the skin. This solution gently exfoliates the outermost layers of dead or damaged skin cells. As these old layers peel away, they reveal the newer, healthier, and smoother skin underneath.
The process also stimulates collagen production and cell regeneration, leading to long-term improvements in skin quality.
How Do Chemical Peels Work?
The chemical solution, typically containing acids like Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs), or Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA), works by dissolving the bonds between dead skin cells. This controlled exfoliation encourages the skin’s natural renewal process.
Depending on the type and strength of the peel, the depth of penetration varies, allowing us to customize treatments for different skin concerns and desired outcomes.
Benefits of Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are incredibly versatile and can address a wide range of skin concerns, including:
- Acne & Acne Scars: Helps to unclog pores, reduce breakouts, and diminish the appearance of superficial acne scars.
- Hyperpigmentation: Fades dark spots, sunspots, age spots, and melasma for a more even skin tone.
- Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Smooths out superficial lines, especially around the eyes and mouth.
- Dull Skin: Removes dead skin cells, instantly brightening and improving skin luminosity.
- Uneven Skin Tone & Texture: Refines rough texture and promotes a more uniform complexion.
- Sun Damage: Reduces the visible signs of sun exposure.
- Enlarged Pores: Helps to minimize the appearance of pores.
Types of Chemical Peels Offered
At Tros Aesthetic services, we offer a range of chemical peels, each tailored to specific skin concerns and desired downtime. During your consultation, our experts will recommend the most suitable peel for your skin type and goals.
1. Light/Superficial Peels
- What they are: These peels use mild acids (like AHAs such as Glycolic or Lactic Acid) to gently exfoliate the outermost layer of skin (epidermis).
- Benefits: Ideal for improving dullness, minor discoloration, and rough texture. Great for a quick refresh.
- Downtime: Minimal to no downtime. You might experience slight redness and flaking, similar to a mild sunburn, for a day or two.
- Frequency: Can be done every 2-4 weeks for best results.
2. Medium Peels
- What they are: These peels penetrate deeper into the epidermis and upper part of the dermis, often using Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) or stronger AHA concentrations.
- Benefits: Effective for treating fine lines, more prominent age spots, moderate acne scars, and uneven skin tone.
- Downtime: Moderate downtime. Expect redness, swelling, and noticeable peeling for 5-7 days.
- Frequency: Can be repeated every 3-9 months as needed.
3. Deep Peels (Note: Often requires more significant clinic oversight and might not be offered as standard without extensive consultation)
- What they are: These peels penetrate deep into the middle layer of the skin (dermis) and typically use stronger acids.
- Benefits: Dramatic results for severe wrinkles, deep acne scars, and significant sun damage.
- Downtime: Significant downtime (several weeks) with noticeable peeling, redness, and swelling. Usually performed under strict medical supervision.
- Frequency: Typically a one-time treatment.
What to Expect During Your Chemical Peel Session
- Consultation: A thorough skin analysis and discussion of your goals to determine the most appropriate peel.
- Preparation: Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed. The peel solution will be applied evenly. You might feel a tingling, warm, or stinging sensation during this step, which is normal and temporary.
- Neutralization (if applicable): Some peels are self-neutralizing, while others are removed after a specific time.
- Post-Care: A soothing balm or cream will be applied. You will receive detailed aftercare instructions, emphasizing sun protection and gentle skincare.
After Your Peel: Recovery and Results
The recovery period varies based on the peel’s depth. Regardless of the peel, strict sun protection is crucial post-treatment, as your new skin will be more sensitive to UV radiation.
- Light Peels: Your skin may feel tight and look slightly flushed initially. Mild flaking might occur over the next few days.
- Medium Peels: Expect redness, swelling, and noticeable peeling that can last up to a week. Your skin will regenerate and look significantly smoother and clearer.
Results become visible as your skin heals, revealing a fresher, more youthful complexion. Multiple sessions of light to medium peels often yield the best and most sustained results.
