What are the Benefits of Facial Skin Peels

For New Yorkers on the go, skin imperfections are an unwelcome fact of life. With a chemical peel, you can enhance the appearance of skin—reducing or banishing everything from fine lines and wrinkles to sun spots and dark circles—in a non-invasive, non-toxic procedure.

The Problem with Aging

As skin ages, it begins to accumulate sun damage that leads to spots and irregular pigmentation and slow the pace of cell turnover, which dulls the skin. Other signs manifest on the surface, including wrinkles, acne scars, and rough patches on the face.

The Skin Peel Solution

Skin peels use a safe but effective formula that gently removes the top layer of skin, polishing away the damages of sun and time and generating new cell growth that leaves the skin radiant. It also stimulates the production of collagen, which is critical to maintaining the skin’s elasticity and youthfulness.

After a peel, skin looks luminous, smooth, and tighter, and it no longer possesses or has reduced the appearance of acne scars, acne, freckles, sun spots, large pores, dark circles, and discolored or rough patches.

Find the Right Chemical Peel in NYC

There are multiple options for skin peels designed to target specific problems and skin types. For best results, we recommend that you find the one that works for you. The different kinds are: the Jessner’s Peel, the TCA Peel, the Mandelic Peel, and Glycolic Peel.

Additionally, skin peels are generally offered in light, medium, and dark.

A light peel is designed to treat age spots, dryness, fine lines, and discoloration by removing the outer layer of skin called the epidermis.

A medium peel goes one step further to reach the upper part of the dermis, the middle layer of skin. It targets deep wrinkles, pigmentation problems, and acne and acne scars.

Designed to treat scars, pigmentation problems, and extensive lines and wrinkles, a deep chemical peel penetrates the lower level of the dermis.
