Is a Chemical Peel Painful? Types of Chemical Peels


If a person's facial skin has been affected by exposure to the sun and other elements, it may get damaged. Aging also produces wrinkles and lines on the face. Acne leaves behind scars. Chemical peels can correct all these and other such problems of the skin. A chemical peel is used to correct the problems of the skin and restore confidence in the patient who may have been feeling less confident because of the appearance of the face.

There are various types. Some treat the superficial skin and relieve the problems almost immediately. Others act on the deeper part of the skin and may take a longer time to produce results. But all types sting when they are applied. In some patients the doctor may advise a treatment which makes the skin thinner and even more so that the treatment has better effects.

The chemicals in the sting but do not cause much pain. The AHA (alphahydroxy acids) are the most gentle of all. Glycolic, lactic or fruit acids are also gentle. They may cause stinging, redness, irritation and crusting but as the skin begins to adjust all these problems will lessen. The AHA peels are best for light wrinkles, acne and the likes.

Trichloroacetic acids (TCAs) are used for stronger peelings. They remove wrinkles, superficial blemishes and pigment problems. Phenol is the strongest of all treatments and removes strong lines and wrinkles on the face. These entire chemicals sting. After the treatment there may be redness, swelling and irritation but the treatment includes the using of creams and gels which will reduce these effects. Also the doctor may prescribe medicines which will help relieve the problems after the peel.

The old skin is discarded and the new one emerges. It does not have the earlier problems. But it is very delicate and should not be exposed to the sun or other strong elements. There may be burning sensations even while healing but the doctor can control it with medicines.

Chemical peels are ideal for those who do not want surgery on their faces. Some of these chemical peels may be used along with other procedures like a face-lift and the doctor is the best person to take such decisions. After a chemical peel the skin will be glowing and there will be a tremendous change in the appearance.
