A chemical peel process includes using a chemical solution to improve the appearance of the skin. In chemical peel treatment, a chemical solution is applied to one\u2019s skin with the goal of resolving a specific skin condition by removing damaged skin cells, <strong>revealing healthier skin underneath<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Skin after chemical peel treatment<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The natural process of skin renewal changes and <strong>slows down with age<\/strong>.

Depending on the level of hyperpigmentation, one might want to use light, medium, or even deep chemical peels; there is hardly a universal answer, although TCA peels are usually mentioned when it comes to this specific skin condition. This one will definitely require a <strong>consultation with a dermatologist or esthetician<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Chemical peels for melasma<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Melasma is a type of hyperpigmentation, but it typically stems from different causes. <strong>Mandelic acid peels are a non-irritating yet powerful treatment for melasma<\/strong>.

A chemical peel for acne <\/span><strong>may be an <\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>option if you are prone to breakouts<\/strong>. Chemical peels offer a range of benefits for skin that is acne-prone and acne scar-prone. These include: <strong>improving the texture and skin tone<\/strong> by smoothing it out, lightening and reducing the color of dark spots, and preventing future breakouts by unclogging pores.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Which acid tackles which concern?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foreo.com\/mysa\/vitamins-for-skin-how-to-use-them\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Glycolic acid <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">can treat surface-level pigmentation, mild signs of aging, fine lines, and sun damage. Lactic acid is also useful for minor sun damage, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation. It is similarly effective to glycolic acid.

For a more intense treatment, such as medium peels, there\u2019s a general recommendation to wait <strong>between 4 and 6 months between treatments<\/strong>. Deep peels are super intense and the period in between 2 can last up to a couple of years.

If you are careful enough and you carefully follow the product instructions and use precautions, it is safe to use chemical peel at home. However, the <strong>doctors recommend everyone to stay away from <\/strong><\/span><strong>peels containing trichloroacetic acid, phenolic acid, and <\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>retinol<\/strong> as these are deep peel agents and <strong>can cause more harm than good when not used by medical professionals<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Are there any replacements for chemical peels you can do at home?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you are substituting your usual visit to a dermatologist with an at-home peel, here is what you have to know. Don\u2019t be frightened because <strong>at-home peels are designed to be gentle on your skin<\/strong> as concentrations of at-home alternatives are low and they work on the skin texture and tone improvement gradually. When you shop for at-home peel, you should take your skin type into consideration. <strong>Oily to combination skin responds better to alpha hydroxy acid (<\/strong><\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foreo.com\/mysa\/acids-in-skincare-how-to-use-them\/\">AHA<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>) and beta hydroxy acid (BHA)<\/strong>, while <strong>dry to sensitive skin works better with polyhydroxy acids and mandelic acid<\/strong> as they are larger molecules. For those with <strong>super sensitive skin, enzyme peels are a good call<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prep and aftercare for at-home peeling<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What should the chemical peel process look like when performed at home? Make sure you prep your skin thoughtfully and <strong>avoid using physical exfoliators<\/strong>, such as scrubs or toners to aggressively cleanse your face before the peel as they might irritate your skin and we don\u2019t want that. After using a chemical peel, certain aftercare is called for. <strong>A broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF30 and vigilant protection<\/strong> from the sun and heat is a must! Finally, you should avoid treating multiple skin issues at the same time with different peels for the duration of one week as it is a recipe for disaster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Do wonders, and stay away from disasters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a class=\"fasc-button fasc-size-xlarge fasc-type-glossy fasc-rounded-medium fasc-style-bold\" style=\"background-color: #ff0000;color: #ffffff\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foreo.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Let FOREO be a part of your routine<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you a peeling junkie?
