A face peel is a deeply exfoliating treatment that smooths the surface of the skin.
Rather than using gritty face scrubs to slough off dead skin cells, a face peel typically uses a combination of chemicals to treat specific concerns. In most cases, an acidic solution is applied to your face and left to sit for several minutes while it removes dead skin cells on the top layer of the skin. We have the same results with the mechanical peeling. Within a few days, that top layer of skin will peel off (hence the name), revealing brighter, smoother, rejuvenated skin underneath. Here are a few signs that a face peel might be a good choice. * You’ve noticed dark spots or discoloration * Your skin appears dull or dry and feels rough * Your skin appears oily and is prone to breakouts * You have acne scarring that won’t go away * You want your skin to appear more elastic * You have enlarged pores
