Facial Chemical Peels

Is a chemical face peel the right treatment for you?

Facial chemical peels are very popular with people who are looking for an anti-aging, but there are risks associated with this procedure that you should be aware of.

A chemical face peel can provide a temporary solution, but it doesn't work for everybody, and since it is an expensive treatment, you may be better off with an alternative skin care product.

What is a facial chemical peel?

A face peel involves the application of chemicals to remove the outer layer and reveal the smoother, healthier skin that lies underneath.

There are many chemicals used in this process, but alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), trichloroacetic acids (TCA) and phenol are the most popular.

Each of these facial chemical peels offers varying degrees of treatment...AHAs such as fruit and glycolic acids are the mildest and can treat small wrinkles and dryness. Phenol peels are much stronger and work deeply on course wrinkles and blotchy, damaged skin.

The problem is that unless performed by a highly skilled surgeon, there could be complications and side effects with chemical face peels.

Even with a professional, there is the potential for scarring and infection, as well as redness, stinging and irritation.

With some of the stronger facial peels, your skin will lose the ability to produce pigment, so you will always need to wear sun protection.

So you can see that a chemical face peel may not be the best option for you, as there are many risks involved, not to mention the expense of multiple procedures.

That's why an effective skin cream might be a safer option, as you can achieve similar results without the potential side effects...as well as save a lot of money!
