Patients who receive a series of Facial Peels will notice a difference
in skin texture, improvement in pigmentation, control of acne and comedones,
easier application of make-up, and a reduction of fine lines. Glycolic
acid peels produce a mild exfoliation, accelerating the elimination of
dead cells, in turn relieving the signs of dry, rough skin, which is the
consequence of long-term exposure to the sun and other environmental factors.
What exactly is a Facial Peel?
Facial Peels, also known as chemical peels, are a new generation of premium
alpha-hydroxy acid formulations. Glycolic acid, which is found naturally
in sugarcane, is the most beneficial AHA. Other types of AHA’s like
Salicylic or Lactic may be used depending upon the type of skin you have.
When can Facial Peels be performed?
Facial Peels can be performed anytime, as there is no post-peel recovery
time.
