Age Spots are not Beauty Marks
By Elen Hanszen
We all want smooth, unblemished skin and this feeling increases as we grow old and start seeing signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles and age spots. As the signs of aging become more noticeable, a person can start to have less confidence in their appearance. If you too are worried about your skin condition and are looking for a reliable way to restore your skin then a skin peel could be your solution.
A good way to rejuvenate skin is the use of a chemical skin peel, to enable the skin to look younger. Chemical peels will help you reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on your skin. Skin peels can remove the dead cells on your skins top layer which can appear as rough skin to reveal more radiant skin which is free from very fine lines.
Freckles, age spots, and liver spots are reduced dramatically after a skin peel, this is a time tested process. Your skin will become smooth and supple with the use of chemical peels giving you a younger look. For those who have had minor or major issues with acne, a chemical peel; inflammation will be reduced, and acne will be less prominent.
Chemical peels are a one day process, with options for touch ups, but a product for skin like a cream or lotion will have to be used for a long period of time, with multiple daily usage required. Also the procedures aren't as drastic, invasive and permanent as some plastic surgery techniques. The length and resulting look of a procedure like a chemical peel will be a much more noticeable effect than a simple beauty cream that claims to increase collagen levels.
A peel does what it sounds like; the outermost layers of facial skin are peeled away, promoting new skin growth, and showing the fresher, newer looking skin on top. As newer skin grows to replace the top layers, lines and blemishes will become more difficult to see underneath the fresh skin.
Chemical peels are cosmetic procedures that require no pain medication since it is not painful at any stage of the process. Typically, the patient will return for more superficial chemical peel treatments every second week or once a week, for a total of about 6 times for optimal results. Risks are decreased with repeated more superficial peels. For a few days after a skin peel, the side effects are still noticeable. Although rare, hyperpigmentation has been known to be a side effect, and skin in some cases will appear to have a colour change. The capacity for skin to produce pigment is sometimes affected after a deeper skin peel.
To make the skin heal more speedily following the procedure, a patient should clean the skin often and moisturize, this will promote healing and stop infections or rashes. Daily sunscreen usage is something that a doctor will typically suggest in many cases, leading up to the peel.
