CHEMICAL PEELS /ACNE PEEL /RETINOL PEEL
A chemical peel uses a chemical solution to remove layers of skin, revealing the more youthful skin underneath. Chemical peels can reduce or improve fine lines and wrinkles, acne, scars, uneven skin coloring, and other skin imperfections. Different chemicals determine the depth of your peel and the type of skin condition treated.

Chemical peels are most commonly performed on your face, neck or hands. They can help reduce or improve:
• Fine lines under your eyes or around your mouth and wrinkling caused by sun damage, aging, and hereditary factors.
• Certain types of acne.
• Mild scarring.
• Sun spots, age spots, liver spots, freckles, uneven skin coloring.
• Precancerous scaly spots are called actinic keratosis.
• Rough skin, scaly patches, dull complexion.
• Dark patches (melasma) due to pregnancy or taking birth control pills

To prepare for your chemical peel, some general instructions include:
• Avoid tanning and direct sun exposure for two weeks before each treatment.
• Apply topical products (such as hydroquinone) as instructed before treatment to prepare your skin.
• Don’t use any products containing retinoids (such as tretinoin) one to two weeks before treatment, unless your physician tells you differently.
• If you have been prescribed oral antibiotics or an oral antiviral medicine, start taking it at least 24 hours before your chemical peel.
• Peel areas must be free of any open sores, lesions or skin infections.

 You can wash your face 6-8 hours after the procedure, but we recommend using a gentle face wash.
 We recommend a gap of 3-4 weeks between peels.
 Post the procedure, remember to use a moisturizer every 6 hours for at least 3 days
