Many people wonder why their skin doesn’t have the same radiance it used to. The reality is that, over time, the outermost layer of the skin accumulates dead cells that make it look dull and lifeless. The solution to this exists, but it is often surrounded by myths that prevent us from taking action. We invite you to read on to discover the truth!

What is chemical peeling and how does it work?

Chemical peeling is a cosmetic treatment that uses a chemical solution to exfoliate and remove the surface layers of the skin. This can be done superficially, moderately or deeply, depending on the needs of the skin and the type of acid used. The aim is to accelerate cell regeneration and promote smoother, firmer and more luminous skin.

This controlled exfoliation process is the key to treating a variety of imperfections, from acne scars and blemishes to fine lines and enlarged pores. 

While the most immediate benefit of a chemical peel is its powerful exfoliating action, a professional peel offers so much more than just removing dead skin cells. The carefully selected acids and solutions work to trigger a cascade of positive changes within your skin, addressing concerns that topical products simply can’t reach.

A peel can significantly improve overall skin tone and texture, revealing a complexion that is not only smoother but also more radiant. For those struggling with acne, a peel can be a game-changer. By deeply cleansing pores and reducing inflammation, it helps to control breakouts and minimizes the appearance of post-acne scarring. Moreover, it is a highly effective treatment for reversing sun damage and diminishing hyperpigmentation, such as stubborn sun spots and melasma.

3 myths about chemical peel that prevent you from having perfect skin

Myth 1: It is a painful and very aggressive treatment. The reality is that the sensation experienced is a slight itching or warmth that is completely tolerable and disappears quickly. With new products, it is a much safer and more comfortable treatment.

Myth 2: After a peel, your skin will peel like a snake’s and you won’t be able to leave the house. While it is true that the aim is to exfoliate the skin, the level of peeling depends on the type of peel. With superficial peels, the peeling is almost imperceptible. In addition, the post-treatment care protocol ensures that recovery is quick and discreet.

Myth 3: It cannot be done in summer. With good sun protection and proper care, superficial peels can be performed at any time of year. A good professional will know how to choose the right treatment to avoid any complications.
