Peel Treatment
In our clinic we have over half a dozen type of peels available for treatment. Some are specific for sensitive areas such as face, eyelids. Others are strong enough to be used on body areas.
Peels are of use for a wide range of disorders such as:
- Treating acne
- Preventing fresh acne scars
- Removal of existing acne scars (in combination with Er YAG laser and demaroller)
- Pigment removal
- Getting a smooth even toned skin
- Reducing fine wrinkles
- Closing pores
- Tan removal
- Glow treatment
- Melasma
- Dark circles around eyes.
- Marks on the back, arms, shins and other parts of the body.
- Stretch marks
The list is endless. Peels are weak biologic acids. When applied to the surface of the skin, they cause microscopic shedding of the surface dead cells, they stimulate growth of the skin and increase its turn over, they decrease pigment formation and increase collagen formation in the dermis.
Peels are a very versatile tool in the hands of the dermatologist. When chosen and used correctly they give excellent cosmetic results. They are affordable, easy to do and painless and allow the patient to go back to work immediately.
The only prerequisite of peel treatments is that the patient must always use sun screen to protect the skin.
