Chemical peels can improve the skin’s appearance, stimulate new collagen and healthy, reduce discoloration and smooth away the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
What is a Glycolic Peel?
Glycolic acid peels use alpha hydroxy acid to chemically exfoliate sensitive skin to improve the appearance of dull, dry, and uneven skin texture. They lighten hyperpigmentation to even skin tone, reduce the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles, and treat acne scars.
How Does it Work?
Glycolic acid peels remove dead skin cells and debris by sloughing off the top and middle layers of the skin. Your skin can hold dead skin cells long after they’ve died off, but a chemical peel can help them finish the shedding process to improve skin texture, reduce flare-ups in acne-prone skin, and enhance collagen production.
Does it Hurt?
Glycolic Peels are not painful. Patients may feel slight stinging or tingling, which only lasts while the peel is applied.
