Chemical Peeling

A chemical solution to improve the appearance of your skin. In this treatment, a chemical
solution is applied to your skin, which causes trauma to your skin’s layers. The skin layers
eventually peel off revealing more youthful skin. The new skin is usually smoother with fewer
lines and wrinkles, has a more even color and is brighter in complexion. Chemical peels are
used to treat certain skin conditions or to improve your appearance by improving the tone and
texture of your skin. Chemical peels are most commonly performed on your face, neck or
hands.
