Best 10 Chemical Peels for radiant skin!
As we get older, our skin begins to show textural changes and irregularities such as fine lines, wrinkles, larger pores, rough skin, pigmentation, dullness, dryness and loss of elasticity. Our natural ability to shed dead skin cells (also known as desquamation) and cell turnover also slows down dramatically- This is where chemical peels come into the picture.
Chemical peels are a great way to reverse and treat these skin concerns. With so many types of chemical peels on the market it good to know the best of the bunch! Chemical peels are carefully balanced and blended formula of acids that applied to the skin to remove the outer superficial layers of dull, dead skin. As a results, cell turnover is improves as well as overall skin function and appearance, revealing a fresher, revitalised and more radiant complexion.
Acne sufferers and those with problematic, congested skin can also benefit from peels through deep exfoliation, deep pore cleansing, reduction of inflammation and reading post inflammatory hyperpigmentation and scarring left from blemishes.
Not all chemical peels are the same
At MUSE Clinic we offer a range of chemical peels, each with a high concentration of potent ingredients to address a range of skin concerns. Deciding on which peel is right for you is dependent on your skin type and concerns as well as the results that you’re hoping to achieve.
There’s a misconception that chemical peels will leave you with a burnt, red and scary complexion, but this often isn’t the case! Downtime with our peels is minimal, and you may (or may not) experience slight redness, irritation or peeling. This is dependent on your skin’s barrier function and a skin with a healthy barrier will experience less side effects or down time. With the advancement of peel technology, you don’t necessarily need to “peel’ in order for the chemical peel to be deemed effective.
