Chemical peels consist of acids such as AHA, BHA, TCA or phenol and are used depending on the skin type and condition. The treatment should be performed by an experienced dermatologist and requires proper skin care before and after the treatment, as well as sunscreen to maintain the results and avoid possible damage from UV rays.A solution of special acids is applied to the skin to exfoliate dead skin cells and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. The treatment can be applied to the face as well as other areas of the body such as the neck, décolleté and hands.

There are several types of peels that differ in intensity and concentration of active ingredients. The most common peels are chemical peels that consist of a combination of alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), beta hydroxy acids (BHA), trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and phenol. Each of these types of acids has a different effect on the skin and can be used depending on the skin type and condition.

Light peels such as AHA peels are ideal for treating superficial pigmentation, acne and fine lines. TCA peels are stronger and are suitable for treating deeper wrinkles, sun damage and uneven skin tone. Phenol peels are the most intense and are used to treat serious skin problems such as scars and deep wrinkles.

During the peel, the patient will feel tingling and slight pain on the skin, but this is well tolerated. After treatment, patients may experience mild redness, flaking and swelling, but these should subside within a few days.

The results of peels are usually visible immediately, with the skin appearing smoother and more radiant. Long-term results include improved texture, uniform skin tone, and a reduction in pigmentation spots and fine lines.

However, it is important that peels are only performed by an experienced dermatologist to avoid potential complications such as infection and scarring. In addition, the patient should apply proper skin care before and after the treatment and use sunscreen to preserve the results and avoid possible damage from UV rays.
