Chemical peeling involves the application of chemicals to the skin for a short duration, depending on the skin problem. Chemical peeling is often used to treat fine lines under the eyes and around the mouth. Wrinkles caused by sun damage, aging and hereditary factors can often be reduced or even eliminated with this procedure.
Mild scarring and certain types of acne can also be treated with chemical peels. In addition, pigmentation of the skin in the form of sun spots, age spots, liver spots, freckles, splotching due to taking birth control pills, and skin that is dull in texture and color may be improved with chemical peeling. It can be superficial, medium or deep. We use several peeling agents either alone or in combination depending on the signs and skin texture. A professional chemical peeling treatment helps you to reduce or remove of red spots or blemishes.
Procedure of Chemical PeelingPrior to procedure, instructions may include the elimination of certain drugs and the preparation of the skin with topical pre-conditioning medications. The patient may be advised to clean the area with an antiseptic soap the day before the procedure.
A chemical peel can be performed in a doctor's clinic. At the time of treatment, the skin is thoroughly cleansed with an agent that removes excess oils, and the eyes and hair are protected. One or more chemical solutions - an alpha hydroxy acids are used. Dermatologic surgeons are well qualified to select the proper peeling agent based upon the type of skin damage present. During a chemical peel, the physician applies the solution to small areas on the skin. These applications produce a controlled wound, enabling new, refreshed skin to appear. Most patients experience a warm to somewhat hot sensation which lasts about five to ten minutes, followed by a stinging sensation. A deeper peel may require pain medication during or after the procedure. The procedure will be followed by topical post-conditioning medications.
