At Divine Skin, we are proud to offer chemical peels as one of our most popular services. Chemical peels are a type of exfoliation treatment designed to rejuvenate and refresh the skin by removing the outer layer of dead cells from the surface.
Chemical peels work by removing the uppermost layers of skin on your face using a special solution that breaks down dead skin cells, leaving you with smoother, clearer, and more radiant looking skin. The result is an overall brighter complexion and minimized appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
There are three primary types of chemical peels that are available at Divine Skin: light (superficial), medium (medium-depth), and deep (deep-depth) chemical peels. The type of peel used may depend on the condition of your skin and desired results.
Light (superficial) chemical peels are ideal for those looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, or discoloration due to age spots or melasma. It is also the perfect option for those with sensitive skin who want to see some light exfoliation and brightening effects without significant downtime after treatment.
Medium (medium-depth) chemical peels are best used for more intensive treatments that require a deeper exfoliation in order to target conditions like severe lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and deep acne scars. After treatment, there is typically some redness and peeling that can take up to a week before it subsides, but the results will be worth it.
Deep (deep-depth) chemical peels are the most intense type of peel available at Divine Skin. They are designed to penetrate deeper layers of skin in order to treat more stubborn signs of aging, such as deep wrinkles and age spots. The downtime associated with this procedure is significantly longer than the other types, but the results will leave you looking years younger.
At Divine Skin, we only use high quality products in our chemical peels treatments, so you can rest assured that you’ll get long lasting results without any harmful side effects or risks. Our experienced skincare professionals will also be sure to educate you on after care in order to get the most out of your chemical peel and ensure that your skin remains healthy and glowing.
Chemical peels offer many benefits, including reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, evening out skin tone and texture, reducing acne scars, and improving overall skin health.
Depending on the type of peel you choose, some redness or peeling may occur after treatment; however, this usually subsides within one week. Your skincare professional can provide more detailed information about potential downtime associated with your specific type of peel.
The frequency at which you should get a chemical peel will depend on your skin type and what results you are looking to achieve. Generally speaking, it is recommended that light (superficial) peels be done every two to three months, while medium (medium-depth) and deep (deep-depth) peels should be done no more than once or twice per year.
As with any skincare treatment, there are certain risks that may arise from getting a chemical peel; however, these can typically be avoided by consulting with an experienced aesthetician and following their after care instructions. Some potential side effects include skin irritation, scarring, discoloration, and infection.
It is important to keep in mind that these risks can be minimized with the right products and careful post-treatment care. At Divine Skin, our experienced skincare professionals will provide you with all the necessary information about potential risks before treatment so you can make an informed decision about your skincare regimen. We take great pride in helping our clients achieve beautiful results that last!
