What Are Skin Peels?
At 3D Medical Aesthetics, two types of chemical peels are used. The superficial peels remove the outer layer of skin (epidermis) and are used to treat acne scars, fine wrinkles, thin lesions on the skin surface, pigmentation, and surface dryness. Several treatments may be needed to achieve evident improvement in the tecture, tone, and tightness of your skin. These usually require minimum downtime and as such fit conveniently in a busy schedule. A medium depth peel, on the other hand, removes skin cells from the epidermis and from portions of the upper part of your middle layer of skin (dermis) and can lead to more impressive improvement in skin tone, by reducing blotchy pigmentation, freckling, and actinic keratoses or dry sunspots. Recovery is slower.

TREATMENT STEP BY STEP
PRE TREATMENT
Prior to any skin peel treatment, a highly skilled medical professional assesses your medical records, the skin condition and type of skin, any prior aesthetic treatmetns, and determines whether you may receive skin peels. There are medical conditions, including pregnancy, and certain medications or genetic traits that make skin peels less suitable or increase the risks of side effects. Therefore, expect your expert clinician to make a skin type evaluation and ask you questions about life-style and skincare routine that may contribute in your condition or reduce the effectiveness of skin peels. A personalized treatment plan is agreed upon and questions about the procedure or pre-and-post treatment care are answered.
DURING YOUR TREATMENT
The level of discomfort depends on the type of peel you are having. A mild stinging sensation while the chemical solution is on your skin makes pain relief typically unneccesary for a light chemical peel. If you're having a medium peel, you maey feel stinging and burning for up to 20 minutes and you might receive a sedative and painkiller.
POST TREATMENT
Treated skin will be red, dry and mildly irritated for about one week after a superficial skin peel treatment. A mild skin peel may leave the skin swallen, darker, with crust or brown blotches for about seven to fourteen days, while redness may persist for months.

Recovery is slower.
Peels can be repeated as necessary; some people have superficial peels every few weeks. It is wise to wait for 3 to 6 months before repeating a medium depth peel.
A superficial skin peel improves skin texture and tone and lessens the appearance of fine wrinkles. If you have a medium chemical peel, treated skin will be noticeably smoother. Repeated treatments improve results and their duration.
By removing the top layers of skin cells, skin peels expose vulnerable skin cells underneath. Strictly following your post-care instrucitons is important. These include: use SPF+50 sun protection cream; avoid sun exposure; allow the skin shed naturally by not removing the dry skin before it is time or not over-moisturizing; etc.
