What are Chemical Peels?

Chemical Peels involve applying a specialised solution to the skin to exfoliate dead skin cells, revealing the smoother, more youthful skin underneath. These treatments are ideal for improving skin texture, addressing pigmentation issues, and reducing fine lines. Peels are available in different types, customized to address various skin concerns and suited to individual skin types.

Medical Uses for Chemical Peels:

Chemical Peels are highly effective for treating various skin conditions, including:

The Science Behind Chemical Peels:

Chemical peels work by removing different layers of the skin, depending on the type of peel and its application time. This triggers the regeneration of new skin layers that are smoother and less damaged. Peels are categorized based on their depth:

Superficial Peels:

Targeting the epidermis (top layer of the skin), superficial peels are ideal for treating mild photo-ageing, mild acne, and melasma. Multiple sessions may be needed for optimal results.

At the Centre of Dental Excellence, we offer:
We use the Obagi Blue Peel, a TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid) peel, which can be tailored for medium or deep treatments. Recovery time for deeper peels is about 4-8 weeks, during which your skin will experience redness and significant peeling. Consider this “downtime” when scheduling your treatment.

Things to Consider Before Chemical Peels:

To enhance the effects of your chemical peel, we may recommend a preparatory skin treatment. This step is crucial for preventing complications, ensuring smoother recovery, and maximizing the benefits of the peel.

For deeper peels, it’s normal for your skin to be red and flaky for several weeks. We advise scheduling your treatment when you have adequate downtime to allow for complete healing and avoid important events such as weddings.

Potential Side Effects:

While chemical peels are generally safe, side effects may include:

Your skin will also be more sensitive to sunlight post-peel. To maintain the results, it’s essential to use SPF 50 sunscreen daily.

Although side effects cannot always be prevented, our team is fully trained to manage and treat any concerns promptly, ensuring a smooth and safe recovery.
