Chemical Peel Treatment for Acne and Acne Scars

No need to worry about acne and acne scars!!

A chemical peel is the best answer for all your skin worries!

Many teenagers and adults face acne skin condition that occurs due to the clogging of skin pores with excess sebum, dirt, bacteria, and dead skin cells. Acne is a very challenging skin problem, and if not treated early, it can leave permanent scarring on the skin.

Many people try to hide their scars and acne bumps with make-up. Still, they need to understand that determining the causative agent and root cause and getting suitable treatment by a dermatologist can effectively cure this problem.

Acne scars are the outcome of swollen acne pores. The inflamed acne pore wall gets broken down, and the inner content gets spilled into the nearby area, thereby causing acne marks or scars. Moreover, the skin produces less collagen, which results in the formation of pits on the skin while the skin heals.

What is a chemical peel?

Chemical peel skin treatment is one of the cosmetic remedies for reducing acne and managing deep acne scars. It can also make the skin wrinkle-free and treat damage caused by sun exposure. Skin discolorations, imperfections, texture, and scars can all be corrected using chemical peels in areas such as the face, neck, hands, and shoulders.

How does chemical peel treatment work to remove acne and acne scars?

 

The acid used in the chemical peels solution carefully and effectively exfoliates the dead skin cells without causing any pain or discomfort. It can work on the superficial skin layer as well as the layer underneath it (i.e., epidermis and dermis) that comprises the hair follicles, sweat glands, and nerve endings.

 

Working of chemical peel:

 

·         The chemical peel loosens the dead skin cells and initiates epidermal growth, and encourages the growth of new skin cells.

·         The peels exfoliate the skin layers, clear the pores and also eliminate the acne-causing components. It also helps in decreasing sebum production and reduces the chances of getting new acne breakouts.

 

The steps followed are followed to remove skin imperfections using chemical peel:

 

·         The patient’s face is cleaned properly, and the prescribed chemical solution is mixed nicely. Then the expert applies the chemical peel first to the parts of the body with thicker skin such as chin, cheeks, and nose and then moves to the area with thinner skin such as near the mouth and eyes using a brush. (In case of deep acne treatment, the area may be numbed before applying chemical peels).

·         The chemical solution is left for some specified time for it to work.

·         After a chemical peel is applied, the remaining exfoliant (i.e., chemical peel) is removed from the treated part with the help of cold compresses. This is known as the wash-off step. Again, the skin is cleaned and wiped with a soft towel.

·         A protective moisturizer is then applied to the cleaned area.

·         Post-care is necessary by avoiding the use of any face wash, make-ups, or washing of treated areas for a day. The face is kept dry for 24 hours for proper healing. It usually takes about a week to peel off the treated skin.
