Chemical peels are special topically applied formulas that revitalize and renew the skin surface by creating an even and controlled shedding of old skin cells. This allows new layers of cells to be exposed, creating a new fresh appearance along with a smoother texture on the skin surface. A chemical peel can combat a variety of things such as improve sun damage, acne scarring, blotchy pigmentation, fine wrinkling and early pre-cancerous skin lesions. A peel can also improve and be beneficial to acne-prone skin and clogged pores.
Here at MD Aesthetica we offer a variety of peels that range from mild to more aggressive and deep peels. Your physician or provider can guide you to decide which is treatment is most appropriate for your skin and desired outcome during a consultation based on your goals and other factors.
To find out which peel is best for you, call 713-799-0000 and set up a consultation so that an expert provider may determine your skin type, goals, and discuss what options would work best for you.
