Understanding Chemical Peel Treatments

A chemical peel is a specialized skincare procedure designed to improve and smooth facial skin texture by carefully removing damaged outer layers. This advanced treatment addresses various skin concerns, including facial blemishes, wrinkles, and uneven pigmentation.

Chemical Peel Types and Applications

Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) Peel

The mildest chemical peel formula, AHA peels offer significant benefits with minimal recovery time. These treatments can:

• Smooth rough, dry skin textures
• Improve sun-damaged skin appearance
• Aid in acne control
• Correct minor pigmentation issues

Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) Peel

TCA peels provide medium-depth skin resurfacing, effectively targeting:

• Fine surface wrinkles
• Superficial blemishes
• Pigmentation problems

Phenol Peel

The most intensive chemical peel option, phenol solutions are used for comprehensive skin rejuvenation, addressing:

• Coarse facial wrinkles
• Sun-damaged skin areas
• Pre-cancerous skin growths

Treatment Considerations

Each chemical peel type offers unique benefits and requires careful assessment by a qualified plastic surgeon. Dr. Cusick's expertise ensures personalized treatment selection based on individual skin characteristics and aesthetic goals.
