At Ultimate Image near Largo, we understand that your skin goes through the ringer every time you leave the house. Sun exposure, the environment, and other factors can damage skin and make you look older or less healthy. One way to repair the damage done to the skin on a daily basis, cleanse the skin and pores, and get a fresh, youthful look is to get a chemical peel.
What Is a Chemical Peel?
In a chemical peel, chemicals, usually an acid, are placed on the skin for a brief time to promote peeling of the upper layers. As the old skin peels away, new healthier skin will take its place. This is a great way to cleanse the skin of debris from your environment, close up large pores, reduce oil, promote moisturization, and overall enjoy healthier, younger skin.
What Chemical Peel Is Right for Me?
There are many different types of chemical peels. Ultimate Image near Largo offers a total of eight different peels in a variety of strengths. The right peel for you is determined by your skin type, skin condition, and other factors. The strength of your peel—mild, medium strength, or deep—will also depend on your skin’s condition and what correction you are looking for.
The types of chemical peels that we offer include:
- Glycolic acid: great for beginners or a quick appointment
- Lactic acid: great for dry and sensitive skin
- Salicylic peel: great for oily and acne-prone skin
- Jessner, Fusion, AHA Brightening, and Vitamin C peels: for medium-strength peels
- TCA Peel: deep peel for advanced clients
When you contact our office for a consultation, we will schedule a skin analysis to determine the best chemical peel and strength for you. After your chemical peel, we can suggest medical-grade skin care products to help you maintain your fresh, clean, youthful skin. Contact us today for an appointment.
