Chemical peels have been used since the days of Cleopatra to improve the appearance of the skin. This time tested method for skin rejuvenation can produce remarkable results. Chemical peels are performed to improve the skin tone, fine lines, wrinkles, and skin discolorations.
It is important to understand that their are different chemical peeling agents available and results will vary based upon which one is used. The main difference between the different agents is in how deep the chemical will penetrate into the skin.
Generally the deeper the chemical penetrates, the better the results. This is because the skin is composed of different layers. Discoloration of the skin is a result of pigment in any of the layers of the skin, top or bottom. The collagen is present in the medium to deep layers of the skin. Chemical that enters this area will result in collagen remodeling which give a better overall skin appearance afterwards.
So what are the different chemical peels used?
-Glycolic peels are used by aestheticians and are sometimes referred to as fruit acid peels. These are the most superficial peels and are akin to a microdermabrasion treatment. They will make the skin look more refreshed, however the results are temporary and last at most several weeks.
Chemical peeling agents that penetrate the deeper layers of the skin achieve more permanent results because they actually induce collagen remodeling and will get to the pigmented portions of the skin.
- 35% TCA/Jessnerd Peel is performed to enter the medium to deep layers of the skin. This is a very effective peeling agent and is frequently used because it has an excellent balance of result with less downtime and redness then the deepest peels. This peel is performed in the office under local anesthesia.
-Phenol peel- This is the deepest penetrating peeling solution. It produces remarkable results but takes the longest to heal. This peel has to be performed in an operating room setting.
It is recommended that you meet with a facial plastic surgeon or dermatologist that is experienced with the deeper chemical peels in order to evaluate your candidacy for the procedure.
