Here are the steps for a chemical peel treatment

  1. A thorough examination of the skin is performed
  2. The skin is cleansed with a gentle Vitamin A cleanser to remove makeup and dirt
  3. Next, we perform a unique double cleansing of the skin with a jet of water to deeply wash the skin for a better penetration of the peel
  4. Petroleum jelly is now applied to corners of the eyes, lips, nose to protect these areas
  5. The peel is gently applied with a gauze piece in specific directions
  6. The number of coats and time depends on the skin condition and the percentage of the peel
  7. We perform a unique way of full neutralization of the peel with a cold paper mask to uniformly cool the areas
  8. A brightening mask is applied containing natural ingredients from spirulina, sea weed and sea plants to bring a glow to the skin

Like any other treatment, a chemical peel is not without its share of side-effects. In some cases, patients have experienced a slight redness pigmentation on the treated areas. This can be handled with antibiotic medication. According to the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, some patients might also experience a reactivation of cold sores. Furthermore, we take great care to advise our patients on aftercare methods to be followed for the best results. These include applying the prescribed ointments to the treated skin and avoiding extreme temperatures. Johns Hopkins Medicine goes on to specify that patients should avoid sun exposure immediately after treatment.

Almost anyone can do a chemical peel treatment. A chemical peel treatment can be done for a wide range of skin conditions that include active acne, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, uneven skin texture, dark circles, dark underarms, body acne, dark buttocks, and sun damage.
