People have referred to it as “the ultimate acid test,” or more formally, the chemical peel . Now I know what you’re thinking; remember that “Sex In The City” episode when Samantha got a chemical peel and looked like raw meat? That was scary, but chemical peels (at least what we offer) aren’t really like that.
Today’s advanced chemical peels provide aesthetic results that are outstanding. Now, peels can actually tighten the skin as they peel away skin layers and brighten sun-damaged skin. Yes, you do need to be prepared to undergo some tingling upon application (less discomfort than waxing), outlay some money and be out of action for three days, but the results will be worth it – your skin will never look better!
Afterwards, your skin will look dewy and soft, and let’s face it people, at age 50 your skin doesn’t look dewy without doing something! So if you’re not ready for surgery, this treatment under medical supervision, is the best place to start.
To prepare for the peel and get the best results, you should begin using a range of day and night medical grade skin care products. They can stimulate collagen production and cell turnover and put some elasticity back in your skin.
At our Seattle surgery office, we offer the popular Vitalize peel. This chemical peel can bring an improvement in skin texture and tone, reduce acne breakouts, lessen superficial lines and reveal a healthier, more youthful look and feel with minimal downtime.
