Chemical peels play a significant role in skin rejuvenation and is a powerful tool used by doctors, dermatologists and aestheticians all over the world. The idea behind chemical peels date back to Cleopatra's era where she bathed regularly in sour milk to enhance the appearance of her skin, unaware of the fact that the active ingredient responsible for  her skin rejuvenation was lactic acid. Today, Alpha Hydroxy acids and other fruity acids have become extremely popular for cosmetic use as their remarkable anti-aging effects have been established.

What is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a technique that improves the skin's texture and appearance by applying a chemical solution to the skin which destroys the outer damaged layers. It then creates a healing response at the lower layers of the skin that stimulates the production of elastin and collagen which is responsible for the healthy regrowth of the new epidermis. This results in smoother, radiant and younger looking skin.

These peels achieve-

• improvement in the appearance of fine lines
• softening of acne scars
• evening of pigmentation irregularities
• reduction of skin pore size
• improved skin tone
• enhanced skin clarity
• general maintenance of healthy, rejuvenated skin
