This solution peels away damaged skin cells, allowing healthy skin to grow in their place.<\/p>\n<p>This may help improve common skin concerns, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>wrinkles<\/li>\n<li>hyperpigmentation<\/li>\n<li>acne<\/li>\n<li>uneven skin texture<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, the exact results will depend on many factors, including the severity of your skin issues and the type of peel you receive.<\/p>\n<p>In this article, we\u2019ll take a closer look at the different types of chemical peels, their benefits, and what to expect during recovery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-0\">\n<div><a name=\"types-of-chemical-peels\"><\/a>What to know about different types of chemical peels<\/div>\n<p>Your dermatologist can work with

peel, or superficial peel, will lightly exfoliate your skin. It only removes the\u00a0epidermis, which is your topmost skin layer.<\/p>\n<p>A light chemical peel is usually used for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>fine wrinkles<\/li>\n<li>uneven skin tone<\/li>\n<li>acne<\/li>\n<li>dry skin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This treatment uses mild chemical agents, so it\u2019s usually safe to get light chemical peels every 2 to 5 weeks.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Medium_chemical_peel\"><\/span>Medium chemical peel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A medium chemical peel is slightly stronger than a light peel. It removes your epidermis plus the top layer of your dermis, which lies beneath the epidermis.<\/p>\n<p>A medium peel is typically used for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>wrinkles<\/li>\n<li>uneven skin tone<\/li>\n<li>acne scars<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You may need several treatments to get the results you want.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Deep_chemical_peel\"><\/span>Deep chemical peel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A deep chemical peel removes your epidermis, along with the upper and middle layer of your dermis. It uses very strong chemicals, so you may need a\u00a0local anesthetic\u00a0before the procedure. This will help prevent pain and discomfort.<\/p>\n<p>A deep chemical peel is best suited for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>deeper wrinkles<\/li>\n<li>deeper scars<\/li>\n<li>precancerous skin patches<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The effects of this peel can last for 10 years, so it\u2019s done only once.

Let\u2019s look at some of the most common ones that chemical peels may help treat.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Acne\"><\/span>Acne<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Acne\u00a0is a common inflammatory skin condition. It\u2019s often treated with topical products or oral medication, but chemical peels may also help.<\/p>\n<p>The procedure can:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>break down\u00a0comedones\u00a0(plugged hair follicles)<\/li>\n<li>decrease oil production<\/li>\n<li>kill bacteria<\/li>\n<li>reduce inflammation<\/li>\n<li>increase absorption of topical treatments<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Light and medium chemical peels are usually used to improve acne.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Acne_scars\"><\/span>Acne scars<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>As acne heals, the skin creates new collagen fibers in an attempt to repair lesions that have been created by inflamed skin.<\/p>\n<p>The production of new collagen fibers can create hypertrophic scars, which are bumpy and raised, or atrophic scars, which create depressions in your skin.<\/p>\n<p>A chemical peel can help by exfoliating the top skin layer, which removes excess collagen. Medium chemical peels are typically recommended for\u00a0acne scars.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rosacea\"><\/span>Rosacea<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Rosacea\u00a0is an inflammatory skin condition that causes redness, swelling, and red bumps. If it also causes acne-like breakouts, it\u2019s known as acne rosacea.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, a chemical peel can help relieve these symptoms. It\u2019s typically recommended for mild or moderate rosacea.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Aging_skin\"><\/span>Aging skin<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Chemical peels may reduce signs of aging, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>wrinkles<\/li>\n<li>fine lines<\/li>\n<li>age spots<\/li>\n<li>uneven skin tone<\/li>\n<li>roughness<\/li>\n<li>dryness<\/li>\n<li>liver spots<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When skin grows back after a chemical peel, it triggers the production of collagen and elastin. This can help make your skin supple and strong, reducing the appearance of wrinkles.<\/p>\n<p>The new skin that grows back is also smoother, which helps decrease roughness and dryness.<\/p>\n<p>Chemical peels aren\u2019t recommended for removing deep wrinkles, however. It also won\u2019t tighten sagging skin.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hyperpigmentation\"><\/span>Hyperpigmentation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In addition to acne scars and age spots, chemical peels can improve other forms of\u00a0hyperpigmentation, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>uneven skin tone<\/li>\n<li>melasma<\/li>\n<li>freckles<\/li>\n<li>surgical scars<\/li>\n<li>scars due to injury<\/li>\n<li>discoloration due to sun damage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dullness\"><\/span>Dullness<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you have a\u00a0dull complexion, you may benefit from chemical peels.<\/p>\n<p>The treatment allows new skin to resurface, which may help your complexion look brighter and healthier.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Precancerous_growths\"><\/span>Precancerous growths<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Actinic keratoses\u00a0are rough skin patches caused by years of sun exposure. They\u2019re known as precancerous growths, since they can potentially turn into skin cancer.<\/p>\n<p>A deep chemical peel can remove these growths and decrease your risk of skin cancer.<\/p>\n<div id=\"hl-incontent-video-ad\" class=\"css-1sxbpyw\" data-adbridg-ad-class=\"hl-incontent\">\n<div class=\"teads-adCall\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"middle-of-article\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-0\">\n<div><a name=\"suitability\"><\/a>Who\u2019s a good candidate for a chemical peel?<\/div>\n<p>Like other cosmetic treatments, chemical peels are not appropriate for everyone.<\/p>\n<div class=\"css-1pkj7lb\">\n<div class=\"css-zr4wb2\">\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"css-1v0jij4\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_might_be_a_good_candidate_if_you_have\"><\/span>You might be a good candidate if you have:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"css-ygw4tr\">\n<ul id=\"block-882e14fb-8acb-4338-b8b1-d1050ddd91e2\">\n<li>generally healthy skin<\/li>\n<li>mild scarring<\/li>\n<li>superficial wrinkles<\/li>\n<li>a lighter complexion<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-1enc0ig\"><span style=\"font-size: inherit;\">On the other hand, it\u2019s best to avoid chemical peels if you:<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>have sagging skin<\/li>\n<li>have deep wrinkles or scars<\/li>\n<li>frequently develop cold sores<\/li>\n<li>have a history of abnormal skin scarring<\/li>\n<li>have\u00a0psoriasis\u00a0or\u00a0atopic dermatitis<\/li>\n<li>have a darker skin tone (higher risk of hyperpigmentation)<\/li>\n<li>have recently taken an\u00a0oral acne treatment<\/li>\n<li>are pregnant or breastfeeding<\/li>\n<li>have a compromised immune system<\/li>\n<li>have undergone radiation therapy or recent surgery<\/li>\n<li>have heart disease (if considering deep chemical peels)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"css-1cg0byz\">\n<aside class=\"css-0\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"css-az6x7v\" data-empty=\"true\">\n<div class=\"css-1hjaa0k\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div id=\"inline3__slot\" class=\"css-eykv1o\" data-adbridg-ad-class=\"inline3\" data-ad=\"true\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"threequarter-of-article\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-0\">\n<div><a name=\"recovery\"><\/a>What\u2019s the recovery process like?<\/div>\n<p>As your skin heals, you may need to apply a protective ointment.
