Chemical Peel Benefits: Why Your Skin Will Love It

Here’s a deep dive into Chemical Peel Benefits and how Chemical Peels might be the perfect addition to your skincare regimen. If you’ve ever considered enhancing your skincare routine, you’ve likely come across Chemical Peels. These treatments, beloved by our clients and team of clinical therapists and cosmetic nurses, offer a range of benefits that can transform your skin. 

 

1. Exfoliates for a Fresh Complexion

Chemical Peels are a powerful exfoliating treatment. By removing dead skin cells, they reveal a brighter, fresher layer of skin underneath. This exfoliation process smooths out the skin’s surface, improving texture and overall appearance.

2. Stimulates Collagen for Smoother Skin

One of the standout Chemical Peel Benefits is their ability to stimulate collagen production. Collagen is essential for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. By promoting collagen, peels help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving your skin looking youthful and smooth.

 

3. Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles

Chemical Peels are effective in diminishing the signs of ageing. They remove damaged outer layers and promote new skin growth, softening fine lines and wrinkles. This makes them a popular choice for those seeking a non-invasive anti-aging treatment.

Peel Recommendation: Rejuvenation Age Peel

 

4. Treats Acne and Acne Scars

If you struggle with acne or have lingering acne scars, Chemical Peels can be a game-changer. They help clear out clogged pores, reduce inflammation, and encourage cell turnover. Over time, this can significantly reduce the visibility of acne scars.

Peel Recommendation: Acne Peel

 

5. Evens Skin Tone and Fades Pigmentation

Chemical Peels are excellent for lightening dark spots, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation. By targeting discoloration, they promote a more even skin tone, giving your complexion a uniform, clear appearance.

Peel Recommendation: Pigmentation White Peel

 

6. Enhances Product Absorption

By removing the barrier of dead skin cells, Chemical Peels improve the absorption and effectiveness of skincare products. This means that active ingredients in your serums and moisturisers can penetrate deeper and work more effectively, enhancing your overall skincare routine.

7. Quick with Minimal Downtime

One of the most appealing aspects of Chemical Peels is their convenience. Many superficial peels offer noticeable results with minimal downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities shortly after treatment.

 

8. Customisable for Different Concerns

Chemical Peels come in various types allowing our Therapist to customise treatments based on your specific skin type and concerns. Whether you need mild exfoliation or more intensive resurfacing, there’s a peel that’s right for you.

 

Complimentary consultations with our team are available to find out which peel is right for you. Bookings can be made using your Results Online account. 

9. Chemical Peel Benefits Boosts Skin Radiance

By encouraging the shedding of dull, dead skin cells and promoting new cell growth, Chemical Peels enhance your skin’s natural radiance and clarity. The result is a healthy, glowing complexion that looks revitalised and youthful.

Chemical Peels are a versatile and effective treatment that can address a wide array of skin concerns.

What Are The Types of Chemical Peels?

Chemical Peels involves the application of a safe chemical solution, which targets the deeper layers of the skin. This effective treatment aids in reducing priorities such as acne, pigmentation, appearance of fine lines, dryness and lacklustre skin by performing 3 main functions

1. A deep exfoliation to remove dead skin cells and decongest pores
2. Treats specific priorities such removing toxins, oil, acne causing bacteria and imperfections
3. Stimulates collagen production

A step up from most chemical exfoliants which often contain a single active ingredient, Chemical Peels have been specifically formulated with a tailored combination of acids to effectively target priorities. Best of all, the results are almost immediate!

How Do Chemical Peels Work?

Firstly, the face is cleansed to remove any initial traces of makeup residue, skin products and debris on the face.

Then, a Pre-Peel is applied prior to the peel to effectively lower the skin’s pH level as well as removing all traces of oil, allowing for the even penetration of the skin peeling agent.

Mild Chemical Peels

A major component of this chemical peel is alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) which include lactic and glycolic acids to effectively generate younger replenished skin. The prevention of premature aging skin can be achieved with this chemical peel treatment, popular for those between the ages of 24-35. Sun damaged skin, uneven skin-tone and texture, fine lines and acne are some of many concerns that can be treated with mild AHA chemical peels. As skin is photosensitive after treatment, it is important that a broad spectrum SPF50+ sunscreen is applied frequently. Some side effects of the treatment include flaking, redness, dryness, itching and irritation. These will resolve when several chemical peel treatments are undergone and skin is accustomed to the active ingredients.

My chemical romance: a chemical peel review

My chemical romance: a chemical peel review
My face has undergone its fair share (and weight) of makeup, pollutants and incorrect products at the prime age of 21 so I decided to try out a Chemical Peel to target my congestion and breakouts.

Communication with the skin

From when I first started my ‘makeup and beauty routine’, I’d tested out numerous foundations as well as skin products on my face, gifting me with the unwanted presence of breakouts and rashes! What I learnt from these trials and tribulations was that it was mostly due to self-diagnosing my skin priorities and then selecting the product I think was right in ‘fixing it’- which proved to be a very costly process in hindsight! Whoops!

From the initial consultation, the clinical therapist determined that for optimum results, 4 to 6 sessions of the Acne Beta Peel combined with LED Light Therapy would be the best option as it aims to effectively bring acne & breakouts under control and risk future scarring. Take a look at my My chemical romance review below.

Breaking up with bad habits – finding the right base

I decided to go with a combination of the Microdermabrasion treatment, Acne Beta Peel and the LED Light Therapy treatment to achieve optimum results that would also guarantee minimal downtime.

The Microdermabrasion treatment involves the gentle motorised exfoliation of dead skin cells of the skin which resulted in clearer pores as well as a decongested base for the acne beta peel to work its magic on.

Firstly, a pre-peel was applied which had a tingling sensation before the acne beta peel was applied.

When the acne beta peel was applied, I let the therapist know from a scale of 1 to 10 on how it felt on my face with 1 being barely nothing whilst 10 meaning I am in discomfort.

As I have sensitive skin, I felt an intensity of around 6/10. After the peel was removed, a combination of serums was applied as well as the Results Active Protect SPF50+ which would soothe, nourish and protect my skin.

What Causes Acne On The Face?

No one is immune to pimples and although picking blemishes gives you short term satisfaction, you are left with a not so friendly reminder on your face. Whether you’ve had it in the past or have recently experienced breakouts on your face, learn the causes of acne to prevent future ones from appearing.

What causes acne on the face and when does it occur?

Acne commonly occurs during puberty. However it can happen anytime dependent on a range of factors such as:

• Hormonal changes
• Genetics
• Use of harsh skincare ingredients
• Build up of dead skin cells and oils from not properly washing the face
• Excessive production of sebum (oil)

How is acne formed?

Your skin has pores that connect to oil glands under the skin. These glands are responsible for the production of a regulated amount of sebum which carries dead skin cells through the follicles to the surface of the skin. Pustules, or more commonly referred to as a pimple is formed when these follicles get blocked as oil builds up under the skin as it’s infected with bacteria.

Where do face breakouts occur?

The most common place for adults to experience acne on the face is along the jawline and cheek. Whereas with teens, the hot spots for breakouts are on the T-zone: forehead, nose and chin.

 

What options are there to treat and prevent future breakouts on the face?

1. Regularly cleansing, exfoliating and moisturising the face: Treat don’t strip

Double cleansing, moisturising the face daily and exfoliating 2-3 times a week with pH balanced products will clear away the daily buildup of dead skin cells and oil from your face. Sticking with gentle skincare products will ensure that your skin’s pH balance is not thrown out of whack which can leave your face prone to irritation and infection.

 

Often oily skin is an indicator of dry or dehydrated skin as the sebum production is sent into overdrive in an attempt to balance the skin’s natural oil and moisture levels. By moisturising and wearing sunscreen daily, the skin’s barrier is protected, minimising the amount of water loss.

 

Results Active Protect SPF50+ is a lightweight and oil-free sunscreen that comes in a handy tube ready for on the go application. It can be worn by itself or under makeup and best of all, it’s been formulated specifically to be used in conjunction with any of our skin treatments.Refine and rejuvenate your skin with microdermabation

 

2. Undergoing regular skin treatments: Acne Beta Peel + LED Light Therapy

Skin treatments such as chemical peels work by deeply penetrating beneath the epidermis to treat congested pores, build of dead skin cells, pigmentation, large open pores, blemishes and breakouts. Unlike physical exfoliation processes, chemical peels do not aggravate or create tiny wounds in the top layer of the skin. The Acne Beta Peel combines the unique properties of salicylic and dioic acid to effectively destroy acne causing bacteria and prevent future breakouts. We highly recommend the LED Light Therapy treatment after a chemical peel as it aids killing acne causing bacteria, soothes redness, stimulates collagen, accelerates healing time and enhances your treatment results.

What causes acne scars?

Whilst not dangerous, breakouts can leave scars and hyperpigmentation. Whilst hyperpigmentation can fade over time, scarring appear as permanent textural indentations on the skin. Skin Needling is an effective solution in reducing the appearance of scarring. Using the DermaPen, tiny needles on a motorised head create micro wounds. This triggers your body’s natural response to generate new skin cells, stimulate collagen and elastin. For optimum results, we recommend 4 to 6 treatments combined with the healing properties of LED Light Therapy to reduce the appearance of scarring, improve skin texture, reduces pore size and a rejuvenated complexion. Results Laser Clinics is one of Australia’s most trusted provider of Laser Hair Removal, Skin treatments & Cosmetic Injectables. Results Laser Clinic is available nationally & are committed to delivering results that make you look & feel your best.
