Chemical Peel Treatment
Chemical Peels can be a portion of a facial or a stand alone treatment. They are a form of exfoliation for the skin. They can be used as an anti-aging technique or reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. They have a high acid content which is used to dissolve and get rid of dead skin cells located on the surface or epidermis of the skin. Light Chemical Peels will leave the skin looking softer, smoother and brighter in complexion.
Peels and Usage:
-
PCA Peel
-
VI Peel Advanced

1. PCA
Many PCA peels are known as superficial peels. This means they target the top layers of your skin, with little recovery time. There are different formulas for a variety of skin types.
2. VI Peel

A VI Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel that penetrates your top layer of skin, called the epidermis, reaching into the dermis underneath.
Like other chemical peels, a VI Peel works by exfoliating your skin and stimulating the production of new proteins. The procedure is commonly used to treat signs of aging, improve skin texture, and correct pigmentary issues.
The product used in VI Peels is made up of a blend of ingredients that include but not limited to:
-
trichloroacetic acid (TCA) (10 to 12 percent)
-
phenol (10 to 12 percent)
-
salicylic acid (10 to 12 percent)
-
vitamin C (4 percent)
-
tretinoin (0.1 to 0.4 percent)
VI Peels are gentle enough that they can safely be used on your face, chest, eyelids, hands, and back. These types of peels can be used on all skin types and tones.
