The use of Face peels for anti aging benefits include treating sun damaged facial skin, skin scar’, acne vulgaris, (more commonly referred to as acne), lines under eyes and face wrinkles, removing dark pigmentation and diminishing enlarged pores on the face.
An antiaging facial treatment chemical face peel will help to stimulate new skins collagen by removing the sebum and sweat protective layer (acid mantle) and damaged skin cells, leaving fresh, new younger-looking skin. They leave skin with an improved skin texture, brightness, and even-colour.
Different Chemicals– Degrees– Results
Many different brands and chemicals are used including Glycolic peel, Betahydroxy, Trichloroacetic (TCA), Salicylic acid (BHA), “Jessners” solution, Obagi blue peel, and Phenol.
The different antiaging solutions produce different degrees of injury to the skin. The controlled injury to the skin promotes the growth of new skin with an improved appearance.
The results in general, are more dramatic and longer lasting with the deeper penetrating chemical skin peels but require more “down time” and they are a higher risk.
Most facial skin peels take 3-10 minutes for the application process and 1-3 weeks for the healing/recovery process depending on what peel and concentration used.
Types Of Chemical Peel
Alpha-hydroxy (AHAs) – “Lunch time peel” such as Glycolic, Lactic or fruit peels are the mildest types that produce light peels that improve mild photoaging of the skin.
This type of face peel is considered to be a “very superficial” peel, with reduced skin peeling and more flaking of the skin and is used often as a home chemical peel treatment.
Light chemical peels help to treat fine wrinkling and lines, facial acne, and uneven skin pigmentation. These rejuvenation peels come in various strengths that can be applied weekly or at longer intervals to obtain the best result.
Repetitive peels have the potential for more profound effects on the skin. Chemical peel treatments may also affect the deeper layers of the skin stimulating skins collagen and elastin to regenerate and anti age skin.
In comparison to the other anti aging skin care treatments, the attractiveness of these types of chemical peels is enhanced by decreased “downtime,” low cost, safely used for all skin types, and an easy and safe at-home face exfoliation treatment.
Trichloracetic Acid (TCA peel) – Can be used in many concentrations of strength. The very mild solutions can be applied weekly to help exfoliate skin, restore skin cells, and rejuvenate skin. This very mild peels treatment will flake of dead skin cells and lift facial blackheads.
