Chemical Peel Treatment in Bayside, NY
The applied chemical solution causes the skin to exfoliate so that the dry old skin eventually peels off. The new skin which forms beneath is usually smoother and less wrinkled as compared to the old skin. Chemical peels can help improve sun-damaged skin.
After the procedure, the skin becomes vulnerable to damage from the sun. You will be advised to wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen every day. You should also limit your time out in the sun to avoid sunburn.
You should consider this option, if you have:
- Skin discolorations, brown spots or blotchiness
- Sun damaged skin
- Scars and wrinkled skin
- Fine lines
Generally, fair-skinned, and light-haired individuals are better candidates for chemical peels. If you have darker skin, you may also have good results, depending upon the type of problem being treated. However, you also may be more likely to have an uneven skin tone after the procedure.
The procedure is not recommended for individuals having cut or broken skin, suffering from a skin infection, sunburn, or an active skin disease. If you have the following conditions:
- Pregnant or nursing a baby
- Have eczema, rosacea, psoriasis or dermatitis
- Have taken Accutane in the last few months
- Using skin-lightening agents, products that contain ascorbic acid or acid-based products
While undergoing the procedure, you will just feel a stingy sensation which does not cause a great deal of pain.
