Do Chemical Peels Really Make A Difference?

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Chemical peels can dramatically improve hyperpigmentation from melasma to PIH including post acne dark marks, acne, texture irregularities, stretch marks, keratosis pilaris, fine lines, wrinkles and the appearance of scars. But you have to be extremely careful about the type of chemical peel and who is performing your peel as melanted skin is different and has different needs.
Learn all about chemical peels and which may be best for you during the chemical peel series with board-certified dermatologist Dr. Alexis Stephens.

    Really well described. I had a few glycolic peels and had no idea of the after care or what to expect. I am finding that derms in the last few years are a lot more interested in a "partnership" versus a "dictatorship" and it is gaining the patients more consistent results.

    Recommendation of ingredients & peels for different skin conditions: 8:19 For acne you need either/all of these ingredients - Salicylic Acid, Retinoic Acid, Modified Jessner, Benzoyl Peroxide VI peel and Perfect Derma peel are recommended 09:11 Melasma - Multiple tyrosinase inhibitors, Retinol Cosmelan peel, Enlighten peel and Demamelanin peel are recommended 10:16 For PIH & fine lines - Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid, Kojic Acid, Apha Arbutin, Retinoic Acid, Modified Jessner, etc. Same peels as the Melasma are recommended but changes in the percentage, strength of ingredients and the technique will change the depth into the skin 10:43 Tips to follow
