Chemical peels improve skin texture and tone by removing damaged outer layers using a chemical solution. They are effective for treating sun damage, acne, aging signs, and uneven skin tone.
How Chemical Peels Work
The procedure itself is non-invasive, usually performed on an outpatient basis, with no need for anesthesia. While commonly applied to the face, chemical peels can also improve the skin on the neck and hands. Recovery time after chemical peel treatment varies from person to person depending on their skin health and post-procedure care.
