Chemical Peels for Glowing Skin: Benefits, Side Effects, and Safety Tips
Chemical peel as the name implies is a skincare treatment where a chemical solution is ap
plied to the skin, to remove dead and damaged layers, revealing smoother, brighter, and more even skin tone. Unlike the traditional scrubbing, chemical peels use active ingredients like glycolic acid, salicylic acid or lactic acid in order to exfoliate and encourage fresh new skin to grow. These solutions are applied by a dermatologist or aesthetician.
The outer skin layers start to loosen and shed over a few days.Once peeling stops, the new skin underneath looks fresher and healthier. Chemical peels vary in kinds(Light Peel, Medium Peel and Deep Peel).
★The Light Peel , tender and gentle, works on the outer layer. Good for dull skin, mild dark spots.
★Medium Peel , transcends deeper, hence,helping with acne scars and more noticeable pigmentation.
★ Deep Peel: Strongest type, due to its valiant nature, is used for severe damage conducted only by a dermatologist.
The benefits of Chemical peel abounds as it doesn't only fades dark spots and hyperpigmentation but brightens dull skin,smooths rough texture and help in the reduction of fine lines and mild acne scars.
However, its downsides are not to be overlooked as its can cause temporary redness, peeling, and sensitivity and triggers burns or dark patches if done incorrectly.
Howbeit, it's important to note that it's not safe for everyone (especially very sensitive skin or some health conditions). Sun exposure after a peel can cause damage,so sunscreen is a must.
Chemical peels should be done only by trained professionals who understand the mystery of skin tones, to avoid burns, uneven pigmentation, or scarring.
