ZO CHEMICAL PEEL

A chemical peel is a facial used to improve the appearance of the skin on the face, neck, or hands. It involves the application of a chemical solution to the skin, which causes the outer layer of skin to peel off, revealing smoother, more youthful-looking skin underneath.

There are different types of chemical peels available, ranging from mild to deep, depending on the specific skin concerns and desired results. Some common types include:

1. Superficial Peel: This type of peel uses a mild acid solution, such as alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) or glycolic acid, to exfoliate the outermost layer of the skin. It helps to improve skin texture, tone, and reduce fine lines and mild discoloration.

2. Medium Peel: A medium peel uses a stronger acid solution, such as trichloroacetic acid (TCA), to penetrate deeper into the skin. It can effectively treat moderate sun damage, wrinkles, and uneven pigmentation.

3. Deep Peel: A deep peel involves the use of a strong acid solution, such as phenol. It penetrates deeply into the skin to address severe wrinkles, scars, and deep lines. This type of peel requires more downtime for recovery and is usually performed under anesthesia.

During the procedure, the chemical solution is applied to the skin and left on for a specific period of time, depending on the type of peel. The skin may feel a mild stinging or burning sensation during the treatment. After the solution is removed, the skin will eventually peel off, revealing fresher, rejuvenated skin.
