What are chemical peels and how can New Orleans, LA patients benefit from them?
By Dr. Mary LupoPatients in the New Orleans, LA area can be treated with a chemical peel to rejuvenate the way they look. This minimally invasive treatment resurfaces the skin using chemical products that remove the damaged upper layer of the skin’s surface. There are various types of chemical peels from lighter, gentler peels to more aggressive peels with different techniques. Lighter peels offer better exfoliation and patients may experience a day or two of recovery and healing, while more aggressive peels get deeper into the skin and require more recovery time-up to a week or more.
Chemical peels are used for one or more of the following concerns:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Freckles and age spots
- Sun spots
- Active acne blemishes and/or scarring
- Irregular pigmentation of the skin
- Sun damage
- Scarring
- Rough texture
