Question:
I love the results I’ve seen online with chemical peels. I’ve got some sun damage and minor wrinkling. Can this be improved with a chemical peel and would I need to have repeat treatments to maintain the results?
Answer:
There are many options to improve sun damage and minor wrinkling. Good skin care is the first step and we prefer PCA Skin Care. We can then further improve the skin with multiple different therapies including light chemical peels, Fraxel laser, intense pulse light, fractionated CO2 laser or deep chemical peel. Selection of the procedure depends upon the degree of aging and photodamage as well as the patient’s tolerance for recovery time. A good SPF moisturizer should be used everyday to prevent any further damage to the skin.
