Types of chemical peels
                     Types of chemical peels 
 
Chemical peels are are Cosmetic cum medical treatments to enhance 
the appearance of skin. Unlike botox in Las Vegas treatment, 
chemical peels can be applied to the face, hands, and neck. Chemical 
peels carried out in med spa in Las Vegas are used to improve 
damaged skin's appearance by applying exfoliating acids. Once the 
old skin peels off, the softer, smoother, and less damaged skin 
underneath appears, giving you a fresher appearance. 
 
 
 
Chemical peels are typically in-clinic treatments and may be carried 
out in outpatient surgical facilities. Your doctor will clean your face or 
the treatment area, and they may offer you eye protection gear like 
goggles. 
 
Light peels 
Superficial or light peels use mild acids like Alpha hydroxy acid to 
exfoliate only the outermost layer of skin gently. During a light 
chemical peel, a gauze or brush is used to apply a chemical solution 
to the treatment area. The skin that comes in contact with the acid 
will begin to whiten, and you may experience a slight stinging 
sensation. Once the application is complete, the chemical solution is 
removed, or a neutralizing agent is applied. 
 
Medium peels 
Medium peels use trichloroacetic acid or glycolic acid to reach the 
skin's middle and outer layer. It is slightly more effective than 
superficial peel and is meant for damage caused by acne-like skin 
conditions. During a medium chemical peel treatment, doctors use 
gauze or a cotton-tipped applicator to apply the chemical to your 
treatment area. The chemical solution used for medium peels could 
be glycolic acid or trichloroacetic acid. As soon as the acid is applied, 
your skin will begin to whiten, and the doctor may apply a cool 
compress to the skin. You may experience stinging or a mild burning 
sensation for up to 20 minutes. Neutralizing solutions are not applied 
for medium peels. Doctors may offer a handheld fan to cool your skin 
after the application. 
 
Deep peels 
Deep peels use phenol or trichloroacetic acid to penetrate the 
middle layer of the skin fully. It helps remove damaged skin cells and 
is reserved for more serious skin damage. During deep chemical peel 
treatments, you will most probably be sedated. Doctors may use 
cotton-tipped applicators to apply phenol to your skin. Phenol turns 
your skin white or grey, and the procedure is portioned in 15-minute 
slots to limit the skin exposure to the acid.
