Chemical peels are treatments that are done in the office, where a chemical is applied to the skin that is designed to dissolve the superficial layers of skin that have been exposed to the surface for some time. Superficial skin cells that have excess pigment and rough texture peel off after a few days, and a fresh skin layer is revealed. There are various strengths and types of peels available, which give different results. Depending on the depth of the peel and the degree of skin damage that you have, you may need more than one chemical peel to get your desired level of improvement.
