Dull Skin Diaries: When It's Time for a Chemical Peel

Chemical peels. They combat a host of skin issues from acne, discoloration, fine lines and wrinkles to just plain old dullness. And they happen to be the treatment de rigueur for aestheticians looking to give clients clear, glowing complexions this year.

Peeling off the dead skin of your face with a handful of peeling agents like alphahydroxy, betahydroxy and salicylic acids, glycolic acid, lactic acid, malic acid, retinoic acid and trichloroacetic among others—can be done every few months. The results are somewhat dramatic, although it may take up to a few days and a series of sessions to see it. Regardless of the peeling agent used, your skin is left regenerated—revealing smoother, more youthful-looking skin.

Chemical peels are easy to do, often times we call them "lunch-time peels" because they are so quick and require very little downtime.  Depending on the type and strength of your peel you will experience some facial redness and varying degrees of peeling.  That being said, its a small price to pay for that "refreshed" feeling we all want, especially during these dull, drying winter months.  Call the skincare specialists today and Pacific Dermatology & Cosmetic center to schedule your appointment, 206.859.5777,  chemical peels are a quick, easy, affordable way to look and feel your best!
