Healthy, glowing skin lets you radiate from the inside out. At Ritual Wellness MediSpa in Maricopa, AZ, JoAnn Vitiello, FNP-C, and our team are here to help you feel confident in the skin you're in. Here, we'll take a look at how to decide whether a chemical peel is the right fit for your needs.
What is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a cosmetic procedure that is meant to improve the appearance of the skin. When you come into the office for a chemical peel, your aesthetician will gently cleanse your skin, then apply a chemical solution that will exfoliate the top layer(s) of your skin. After a few minutes, your aesthetician will remove your peel. Over the coming days, your skin will begin to exfoliate away. Depending on the strength of your peel, you may need to take precautions to allow your skin plenty of time to heal safely.
Benefits of a Chemical Peel
A chemical peel works to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, skin discoloration, and other skin issues. When you come into the office for your consultation before your treatment, we'll talk with you about what strength of peel makes the most sense for your needs.
Is a Chemical Peel Right for You?
Chemical peels are a good fit for many people who want to improve the appearance of their skin and are looking for a way to get a more youthful glow. If you have active acne breakouts, eczema, or rosacea, you may not be a good candidate for a chemical peel. People who have certain pigmentation conditions and those who have a history of the development of keloid scars may also need to avoid chemical peels.
