What To Expect After A Chemical Peel?

Depending on the type of chemical peel, you may experience mild skin reactions as your skin goes through the renewal process. Certain formulas may result in some peeling, redness, or swelling. Patches of discoloration may appear more pronounced as they rise to the surface before revealing new skin. These reactions are normal, requiring only manageable aftercare and, in some cases, a small amount of social downtime.

Several days to weeks after your peel, you should notice a visible change in the look of your skin. The texture will likely be smoother. The concerns targeted during treatment may look less pronounced. Results from a chemical peel are relatively long-lasting, though patients tend to enjoy the most significant benefit by scheduling follow-up sessions.

Can You See Results After One Chemical Peel?

Many people choose to get a chemical peel to improve the appearance of their skin. Chemical peels are typically used for treating a variety of conditions, including common concerns including acne, wrinkles, and sun damage. While one treatment will provide noticeable improvements, especially if the chemical peel is a more aggressive one, milder or more superficial chemical peels may require several treatment sessions over time to get similar results.

Talking with expert aestheticians at Artisan Aesthetics Plastic Surgery is the best way to determine the type of chemical peel necessary to get the results you desire and plan for several sessions if needed.

How Do I Prepare for a Chemical Peel?

Before you get a chemical peel, you will need to clean your skin and remove any makeup or other products that you may be wearing. You will also need to avoid sun exposure for at least two weeks before your procedure. When you check in with our front office team for your chemical peel, we will ask several pertinent questions to ensure you are properly prepared for the appointment or if you need to reschedule.

During a chemical peel, your provider will apply a solution to your skin. This solution will cause your skin to peel off in layers. The number of layers that are peeled off will depend on the type of chemical peel that you get.

What Are the Risks of a Chemical Peel?

The side effects of a chemical peel can include redness, swelling, and crusting of the skin. These side effects are usually temporary and often resolve on their own within a few days. In rare cases, more serious side effects might occur, and these may include infection or scarring.

Are There Any Alternatives to Chemical Peels?
