Three types of chemical peels and their benefits

Chemical Peel Types and Benefits in Centerville OH Area

A home skincare routine might not be enough to achieve the desired results when it comes to keeping the skin healthy and clear. At Eman Aesthetics of Centerville, Ohio, Dr. Jehangir Ansari and his team of professionals understand that extra help might be required. Let’s examine chemical peels, including the different types of peels and their unique benefits.

What is a chemical peel?

First, let’s learn what sets chemical peels apart from other cosmetic treatments available at our office. Dr. Ansari best describes chemical peels as a “controlled chemical burn” on the skin. This might sound scary, but it is actually a safe and effective way to improve the overall appearance of your skin.

During a chemical peel, a solution containing various acids, such as alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), or trichloroacetic acid (TCA), is applied to the face. These acids work by removing the outer layers of dead skin cells, revealing smoother and brighter skin underneath. They also naturally stimulate collagen production, which helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

What are the different types of peels?

Superficial peel. This type of peel is the gentlest and involves the use of AHA or BHA. It treats minor skin imperfections such as fine lines, mild acne scarring, and uneven skin tone.
Medium peel. As the name suggests, this peel penetrates much deeper into the skin’s surface and uses a stronger solution of TCA to target moderate wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and sun damage.
Deep peel. This is the strongest peel type and involves high concentrations of TCA or phenol to address severe sun damage, deep wrinkles, and significant scarring. Deep peels require longer downtime for healing but can produce more dramatic results.

What are the benefits?

Chemical peels are facial treatments that offer a wide range of advantages, making them a very popular choice among our patients. Some advantages include:

Improving skin texture and tone
Reducing fine lines and wrinkles
Minimizing acne scars and dark spots
Stimulating collagen production for firmer, youthful-looking skin
Helping with clogged pores and acne breakouts
Improving self-confidence and self-esteem
