It involves applying a solution to the skin, letting it penetrate, and then neutralizing/removing it, followed by soothing and hydrating steps, with results appearing as the skin sheds its outer layer over days.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>How It Works</strong></p><ul><li><strong>Application:</strong> A chemical solution is applied to the cleansed face.</li><li><strong>Exfoliation:</strong> The solution dissolves dead skin cells and creates a controlled injury, prompting the outer layer to shed.</li><li><strong>Regeneration:</strong> New, healthier skin cells emerge, improving texture, tone, and reducing issues like fine lines, acne, and sun damage.&nbsp;</li></ul><p><strong>Benefits</strong></p><ul><li>Smoother skin texture and improved elasticity.</li><li>Reduced fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.</li><li>Correction of hyperpigmentation (dark spots, melasma) and sun damage.</li><li>Enhanced effectiveness of skincare products.&nbsp;</li></ul><p><strong>Types of Peels (Depth)</strong></p><ul><li><strong>Superficial/Light:</strong> Targets the outermost layer; great for dullness, mild lines, and pigmentation.</li><li><strong>Medium:</strong> Penetrates deeper to treat sun damage, acne scars, and uneven tone.</li><li><strong>Deep:</strong> Reaches lower dermal layers for severe issues; longer recovery time.&nbsp;</li></ul><p><strong>What to Expect During &amp; After</strong></p><ul><li><strong>During:</strong> Mild stinging or discomfort is normal; peel is left on for a short time (minutes).</li><li><strong>After:</strong> Skin will feel dry, flaky, and may peel over several days; minor swelling can occur.</li><li><strong>Post-Care:</strong> Essential to use gentle cleansers, moisturizers, and <strong>strict sunscreen</strong> to protect the new skin.&nbsp;</li></ul><p><strong>Key Considerations</strong></p><ul><li>Peels can be done alone or combined with other facials.</li><li>Results can be enhanced by tailoring the peel type and ingredients to specific concerns.&nbsp;</li></ul>
