Chemical Peels
If you're considering a chemical peel...
Chemical peel uses a chemical solution to improve and smooth the texture
of the facial skin by removing its damaged outer layers. It is helpful
for those individuals with facial blemishes, wrinkles and uneven skin
pigmentation. Phenol, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and alphahydroxy acids
(AHAs) are used for this purpose. The precise formula used may be
adjusted to meet each patient's needs. Although chemical peel may be
performed in conjunction with a facelift, it is not a substitute for
such surgery, nor will it prevent or slow the aging process.
Chemical peel is most commonly performed for cosmetic reasons -- to
enhance your appearance and your self confidence. Chemical peel may also
remove pre-cancerous skin growths, soften acne facial scars and even
control acne.
