CHEMICAL PEELS
A Powerful Skincare Treatment That Can Transform Your Complexion
WHAT ARE CHEMICAL PEELS?
Chemical peels are cosmetic procedures that use a chemical solution to exfoliate and peel away the top layer(s) of the skin. This process encourages skin cell turnover, revealing smoother, more youthful skin. Chemical peels can address a variety of skin concerns and are available in different strengths to cater to individual needs.
TYPES:
There are several types of chemical peels, categorized by their depth:
- Superficial Peels: These target the outermost skin layer and are effective for mild exfoliation.
- Medium Peels: Deeper than superficial peels, they can address more significant skin issues.
- Deep Peels: These penetrate several layers of skin and are used for advanced skin rejuvenation.
Your esthetician will do a thorough skin analysis and decide which chemical peel would be most beneficial for your skin!
