Chemical Peels are used to treat a variety of skin issues like acne, wrinkles, and discoloration, and may be used to maintain a glowing complexion. Chemical peels come in a variety of strengths and combinations, so it is important to seek the guidance of a skilled medical professional to achieve the desired results and to avoid severe complications.
When seeking to make a true change with your skin from a professional service like a chemical peel, you’ll also need to be a part of the process. That means, once a chemical peel is done, or you’ve committed to a series of chemical peels for skin correction, you will need to support the process with good skin care at home. A chemical peel will help your skin maximize the benefits of using a quality skincare system at home.
Another important step in the process you will be contributing to is the after-care. It is important to read all post-care instructions and be sure to ask your skin professional as many questions as necessary, until you feel comfortable with what to do once you leave from your chemical peel service. Some of the obvious, but sometimes not adhered to instructions are related to sun exposure. It is important to be mindful of the complications that can arise from improper sun protection during the healing time after a medical grade chemical peel. If you are not sure if something may or may not cause a complication, always contact your skin professional for advice.
