What are skin peels

Feb 20
 

Peels are performed as exfoliation treatments to remove a layer of dead skin cells. The process acts like a mild abrasive to shred the topmost dead cells from the skin's surface. As the cell debris is sloughed away, new healthy cells that were underneath become active and begin to grow more rapidly.

Why are skin peels used? 

If a person wants to keep the skin healthy and active, they must exfoliate. Exfoliation is done with the use of peels which manages to keep the skin in tip-top shape by plucking away dead cells.

The skin is the largest organ in the human body. It is often through this protective layer that people can tell how healthy a person is internally - because what's underneath reflects on the outside and vice versa! And just like how you wouldn't want to eat unhealthy foods, you need your skin to be fed with wholesome nutrients as well for it to look and feel its best. Peels are also known to help ease stress levels in some cases and can even refresh one's appearance.

 

Are skin peels painful?

A skin peel is not painful in the least - There may be a warm sensation that lingers, or you might feel a slight tingling.

 

How long does a skin peel take?

For those wondering how long it takes to get a skin peel, be rest assured that the process usually doesn't take very long at all. On the average, most skin peel treatments last anywhere between 30 - 45 minutes.

 

Can I go outside after a skin peel?

Your skin is more sensitive after a chemical peel, so make sure you protect it against sunlight. UVA and UVB rays cause damage to the skin's DNA, which can lead to accelerated signs of ageing. If you must be in the sun, use sunscreen.
