Chemical Peel

What is it?

Chemical peels are popular cosmetic procedures designed to rejuvenate and enhance the appearance of the skin. They work by applying a chemical solution to the skin's surface, causing controlled inflammation that prompts the skin to regenerate and reveal a smoother, more youthful complexion.

How it works

Chemical peels typically employ a solution containing various acids, such as alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs). These acids interact with the skin to achieve different depths of exfoliation.

Superficial Peels

These peels use mild AHAs, such as glycolic acid, lactic acid, or fruit enzymes to target the outermost layer of the skin (epidermis), promoting gentle exfoliation and stimulating cell turnover and hydration.

Medium Peels

BHAs, such as salicylic acid, penetrate deeper into the epidermis, addressing skin concerns like acne, pigmentation, and texture irregularities.

Scientific Benefits of Chemical Peels

Exfoliation and Cell Renewal

By removing dead skin cells, chemical peels promote exfoliation and stimulate the regeneration of new, healthier skin cells. This process can improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and even out skin tone.

Collagen Stimulation

Certain chemical peels, especially deeper peels, induce controlled injury to the skin, prompting the production of collagen—a protein responsible for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. Increased collagen levels lead to improved skin tone and diminished signs of aging.

Scientific Benefits of Chemical Peels

Hyperpigmentation Reduction

Chemical peels can effectively address hyperpigmentation concerns, including age spots, sunspots, and melasma. The exfoliation process helps to lighten and even outskin tone by reducing the excess production of melanin—the pigment responsible for dark spots.

Acne Treatment

Peels containing salicylic acid are beneficial for acne-prone skin. They penetrate the pores, unclog sebum and debris, reduce inflammation, and help control excess oil production, thereby preventing acne breakouts.

Enhanced Skincare Product Penetration

By removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, chemical peels facilitate better absorption of skincare products. This allows active ingredients, such as antioxidants, moisturisers, and serums, to penetrate deeper into the skin and deliver more significant benefits.

Overall Skin Rejuvenation

Chemical peels can provide an overall rejuvenating effect on the skin, resulting in a smoother, brighter, and more youthful appearance. They can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and age spots, promoting a healthier and more radiant complexion. 

Chemical peels are a scientifically proven method for improving the skin's appearance and addressing various concerns. At No.1 Skin, our chemical peels can offer a range of benefits.
