Chemical peeling is a procedure in which upper dead layers of skin are removed by applying a chemical on the skin. It also regenerates new skin cells from underneath. These chemicals are obtained from various fruits & food products e. g. glycolic acid from sugarcane, lactic acid from sour milk, malic acid from apples etc.
Effects - Helps decrease the intensity & no. of pimples & decrease chances of post acne scarring. About 4-6 sessions are needed as recurrent peeling will decrease the build up of upper dead skin & underlying cells keep regenerating. This is done at an interval of 2-3 weeks.
Post Peel - After a peel, patient is advised to apply a sunscreen. There might be slight dryness/ flaking/mild redness which subsides eventually, leaving behind a glowing skin.
