What are Chemical Peels?

Chemexfoliation, which is another term for Chemical Peel, uses a combination of chemicals, including a type of acid, to remove dead skin. The chemical solution is applied topically to the treatment area and left for a set period of time.

The skin will blister and peel away to reveal smoother, brighter, rejuvenated-looking skin underneath. There are a variety of chemical solutions which are used in Chemical Peels. Your doctor will choose the specific agent that is right for your skin during your Beverly Hills chemical peel consultation. This procedure has also been successfully used on the neck and hands.

What To Expect

Once you and your doctor have identified the Chemical Peel treatment that is right for you, you may be asked to prepare for your treatment by avoiding exfoliants or temporarily stopping medications which may affect the condition of the skin.

At your appointment, your Chemical Peel solution will be applied. Treatment lasts 60 to 90 minutes, and the method with which the chemical solution is applied varies. Depending on the chemical solution used, peeling may last anywhere from 3 to 10 days following treatment. Patients will want to use gentle products and sunblock following treatment to avoid irritation or damage to the new skin.
