A light peel is a great solution for people with minor skin damage or
fine lines because of its low cost and minimal recovery period.
This treatment is most suitable for people with skin changes such as:
- Irregular pigmentation
- Rough textured skin
- Early sun damage
- Blackheads
- Oiliness
- Dilated pores
Solutions
such as Jessner’s or low strength trichloracetic acid (TCA) are used on the face
to help treat the problem. There will be a mild burning during the peel, but this
subsides in a few minutes. The face will first look sunburned and then begin to peel.
The skin is completely recovered in about four days.
This peel may be repeated every six to eight weeks.
