"Refreshing" Skin Peels Lifting Off The Years
Your skin is a living organ made up of millions of cells. Everyday, thousands of cells die, fall off, and are replaced by new cells from below. Unfortunately, as we age, this type of peeling cell replacement becomes a slower and more haphazard process. With aging and too much sun, your skin becomes overwhelmed by dark blotches, sun damage, and a dull, lifeless complexion. The goal of a skin peel is to create an even, controlled shedding of several layers of skin cells. Peeling exposes a new fresh layer of skin with more even color and a smoother texture. This rejuvenating process can both decrease wrinkling and can prevent skin cancer. For people with sun damaged skin, a light to medium chemical skin peel can stimulate new collagen and elastic tissue to grow, thereby tightening the skin. This results in decreased wrinkles. For people with acne, a light peel may improve the complexion, soften scars, and decrease acne breakout. For people with color irregularities of the skin, a light peel may help restore evenness of colour
A skin peel can remove old layers of sun damaged skin, revealing new skin, and can help repair damaged fibroblast skin cells. New collagen is formed. New elastic tissue is formed. Pigmentation is evened out and fine wrinkles are smoothed. This type of repair helps rejuvenate and restore your skin.
