FACIAL CHEMICAL PEELS

Facials are beneficial for all skin types, and particularly for people who are experiencing skin problems (such as acne or signs of aging). In general, a facial should be done at least four times a year, as each season changes. However, the best plan is to clear time and get a facial once each month. That way, when your new skin cells have been generated, the dead cells can be exfoliated. Facials have become exceedingly popular, as more people realize the health benefits they have to offer.

Chemical peels use acids (broad explanation as there are different types) to break down the top layer or layers of skin. This is to minimise the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and uneven skin tone. Chemical peels can also be used to improve the appearance of fine scars, treat certain types of acne, and reduce age spots, freckles and dark patches.

They can be done alone or combined with other cosmetic procedures. And they can be done at different depths, from light to deep. Deeper chemical peels offer more-dramatic results but also take longer to recover from.
