Melasma is a common skin condition where brown patches form on the face, usually due to hormonal reasons. Melasma mainly affects women and can look like dark brown patches appearing on the mid portions of the face, although some patients notice these patches along the temples as well. The best treatment for melasma is a combined approach of using Retinols, skin lighteners, and antioxidants.
An aesthetic skin peel, often referred to as a chemical peel, is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure used to improve the appearance and texture of the skin. It involves the application of a chemical solution to the skin, which exfoliates the top layers, ultimately promoting the growth of smoother, healthier skin.
Yes, when performed by a trained and experienced professional, aesthetic skin peels are generally safe. However, it’s essential to have a consultation with a qualified practitioner to assess your skin type and specific needs before undergoing the procedure.
Aesthetic skin peels can help with various concerns, including acne scars, sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and texture irregularities.
The duration of the procedure can vary depending on the type and strength of the peel. Superficial peels may take 30 minutes to an hour, while deeper peels may take longer. Mild peels may have minimal or no downtime, while stronger peels can require several days to a week of recovery.
The number of sessions needed can vary depending on individual skin concerns. In some cases, a single peel can provide noticeable results, while others may require a series of peels to achieve their desired outcome.
During the procedure, you may experience a mild tingling or burning sensation, which is generally well-tolerated. After the peel, you may have some redness and peeling, but discomfort is usually minimal and manageable.
When performed by a qualified professional, the risk of scarring is low. However, it’s crucial to follow post-procedure care instructions to minimize any potential complications.
Yes, skin peels can often be combined with other aesthetic treatments, such as dermal fillers or Botox, for a comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation. Your practitioner can advise on the best combination for your specific needs.
Skin peels are customizable to any kind of skin and tone, however, it’s very important to consult with one of our professionals to determine the best approach for your specific skin and condition.
