Many people are turning to chemical peels to help reveal fresh and younger-looking skin. Here’s what a chemical peel can do for you!

What is a chemical peel?

It’s important to understand what happens during this treatment to understand if it’s right for you. This deep exfoliation treatment uses a special solution that is applied directly to the skin so as to remove the outermost layer, which contains bacteria and dead skin cells.

Treatment can take around 30 minutes, after which peeling can last up to five days. As the most damaged outer layer of the skin peels away, you will see healthier and more radiant skin be revealed.

What are the benefits of a chemical peel?

There are many reasons why adults are turning to a simple chemical peel in Syosset, NY, to improve the overall look and appearance of their skin. Some benefits of this treatment include,

• Improving the overall tone, texture, and color of your skin
• Stimulating the production of collagen, which keeps skin tight and firm
• Reducing or even eliminating sunspots and sun damage
• Treating acne breakouts
• Smoothing away lines and wrinkles
• Boosting hydration
• Reducing the appearance of superficial scars and other imperfections
• Removing dry skin and dead skin cells to make skincare products more effective

While many people will achieve beautiful results after just one session, if you are looking to maintain your results for the long term, then you may want to talk about undergoing several chemical peel sessions. The benefit of getting more than one chemical peel is that this special solution can then penetrate to deeper layers of the skin for even better results!
