Chemical Peel Treatment in London
The chemical peel is a very popular treatment for skin rejuvenation. It allows a depth-controlled and even chemical peel to the skin. It replaces old, uneven and photo-damaged skin with a new collagen-rich layer. Over the years, the use of chemical peels have been thoroughly studied and have become an effective anti-ageing and corrective therapy against sun-damaged skin, age-related skin changes such as fine lines, wrinkles, freckles, skin blemishes, pigmentation disorder, uneven skin tone, dilated pores, greasy and acne-prone skin, and acne scarring.
The deeper the peel, the more downtime will be involved, but it also means a better result. A superficial peel is sufficient to improve skin blemishes, pore size, oiliness and acne. A medium depth chemical peel can drastically improve fine lines, deep wrinkles and sunspots.
