Every woman wants
to have a better skin as that enhances her beauty. This is why there is
procedure that is getting popular and is being used by many women to get rid of
several skin problems. It is called chemical skin peels. While doing skin peel
a chemical is applied on the skin which helps the skin to exfoliate and reveal
fresher and newer skin from beneath. There are primarily two types of chemical
peels, first is mild which requires less recovery time and causes less irritation,
second type is deep which may require recovery time of up to a month.
Benefits of
Chemical Skin Peels
- Skin Gets Smooth
According to the Cosmetic surgery procedures guide, using modest
chemical peels like tartaric, lactic, citric and glycolic acid result in the
reduction of cell adhesion as the chemicals bond with the surface of the skin. Due
to this the dead skin cells that are present on the surface of the skin are
released. This helps in making the skin feel smoother and appear fresher. Similarly
if the concentration of acid is increased up to 50 or 70 percent, the chemicals
penetrate the skin deeper and result in significant reduction of cell adhesion.
It can give you sooth skin for longer period of times and various other skin
benefits.
- Reduced Wrinkles and Scars
The reason for the occurrence of wrinkles is the reduction in the
production of elastin and collagen in our body. According to American society
of plastic surgeons, chemical peels penetrate deeper into the skin layers to
reach the younger skin and then cause cell turnover, this results in reduced
wrinkles. For finer lines that are usually visible in areas near mouth, around
the eyes and on the forehead usage of moderate chemical peels is recommended
for the removal of the wrinkles. But for the winkles that are deep, it is
recommended to use strong chemical peels like phenol peels as they have the
ability to penetrate deeper into the dermis. Epidermis is the top layer of the
skin and the layer below epidermis is called dermis. Strong chemical peels can
give remarkable results in the reduction of wrinkles that are deep. Scars can
also be reduced in the skin in the same way as for wrinkles. For scars that are
deep, it is advised to use strong chemical peels for better results.
- Reduced Acne
When the dead skin cells block the hair follicle we see the
formation of acne. Due to this reason we also see other problems like
inflammation and infection. By the application of chemical peels you can get
rid of dead skin cells and thus resulting in less acne. The peels used for the
reduction of acne should be of mild nature as this requires exfoliation to
deeper levels.
Conclusion
Skin peels are
used to cure several types of skin problems like age spots, acne, sun damage,
rough skin area and wrinkles. These chemical peels are a great solution
for many skin problems.
