Chemical Peels

Over the years, the appearance of our skin can change dramatically. Chemical peels are special solutions that remove the outer, damaged layer of skin. The result is a refreshed, rejuvenated appearance.

Chemical peels are facial rejuvenation solutions that improve the appearance and texture of facial skin by gently removing its outer, damaged layers. Facial cosmetic peels are particularly helpful for individuals with sun-damaged, pigmented, and/or wrinkled skin.

Types of Chemical Peels at Bay Area Aesthetic Surgery

Today, there are a number of different types of chemical peels, which vary in ingredients, strength, as well as the depth of peeling. The most frequently performed peels are either alpha hydroxyl acid (AHA) or trichloroacetic acid (TCA) based. The TCA based peels are much stronger and more appropriate for patients with moderate skin problems.
