Chemical peel information and locations in Mexico
Chemical peeling is a treatment that helps to improve the appearance of the face, neck and hands. Depending on the desired results, the peel can be mild, medium or deep.
The procedure consists of applying a corrosive chemical substance on the skin that depending on the type of peel can penetrate to the epidermis, superficial dermis or middle dermis. This chemical removes the superficial layer of the skin and produces a delayed regeneration, resulting in a more luminous skin free of blemishes, wrinkles or acne scars.
Types of chemical peel
Mild or medium peel
This type of peel reaches the epidermis or superficial dermis and is used to treat expression lines, acne marks and improve skin tone.
Deep peel
The deep peel penetrates to the middle dermis and is used to minimize scars, deep wrinkles and skin damage caused by the sun.
