Question:
What are the different types of chemical peel?
Answer:
AHA is the mildest and most shallow peel. This peel can give your face a fresher and healthier appearance. Subsequently, AHA can be used at home for maintenance. TCA is often used for removal of wrinkles and pigmentation changes. TCA is also used in other areas of the body, for example on sun damaged skin. Phenol is often used against sun damaged facial skin, and it is also also effective for removing fine wrinkles and deep furrows. Phenol peel is also suited for alleviating pigmentation problems and age-related brown spots. A surgeon will be able to advise on the peel best suited for the individual case.
