Chemical Peels
Chemical peels or skin peels are aimed at rejuvenating the skin’s surface. A range of different formulations are available, the most common based on trichloroacetic acid (TCA) or alphahydroxy acids (AHA). Chemical peels can treat deep wrinkles caused by sun exposure or lines and skin wrinkling around the lip and chin areas. The peel also helps to correct surface discolouration and blemishes, stimulate cell renewal, improve circulation and rebuild collagen.
