Chemical Peels
Which Peel is right for you?
We offer three levels of Peel at The Laser Room of Sherwood Park. A chemical peel gives you younger and brighter skin. The benefits are endless and can offer amazing results if done by a trained professional. Chemical Peel (or clinical exfoliation) removes dead and damaged skin from the upper layers of the epidermis. When the damaged skin is removed, it reveals new, youthful, beautiful skin. These are effective on wrinkles, pigmentation, uneven skin, and of course, blemishes.
Light Peel
Light peels are also referred to as glycolic peels. If your goal is to improve skin texture, sun damage and acne scars, this is your treatment. This would be the most non-invasive chemical peel and provides gentle reduction in fine lines, acne damage and uneven skin tone. You may resume daily activities after this treatment except direct sun exposure. Optimal results are achieved with several sessions.
Medium Peel
A medium peel or TCA Acid goes deeper into the skin and provides a more dramatic result. This treatment helps to reduce deep-set wrinkles, smooth fine lines, diminish acne scars, and reduce age spots. Aftercare for a medium peel is a little different than the light peel. You can expect a crust to form on the treated area, which will then peel off in 7 to 10 days. You may slightly resemble a snake shedding its skin during this time but not always expected. Sun exposure must be limited during this treatment.
Deep Peel
What is the difference between a peel and a microdermabrasion?
Both are forms of exfoliation. A chemical peel is a chemical exfoliation where peeling and results occur over time. A microdermabrasion is a physical exfoliation using crushed diamonds to abrade your skin, giving you immediate and long lasting results. Both treatments are highly effective and a great addition to your regime. Book a consultation with a trained professional to learn more.
