Revitalize your skin with chemical peels at Genesis Lifestyle Medicine in Fort Myers. This treatment effectively addresses damaged skin, pigmentation issues, uneven texture, fine lines, and wrinkles by exfoliating the top layers of skin, promoting new cell growth, and enhancing overall skin health for a smoother, more youthful appearance.

Exfoliate Damaged Skin & Stimulate Skin Regeneration

Chemical peels are a rejuvenating skin treatment that exfoliates the top layers of skin to stimulate new cell growth. This process helps to address various skin concerns like damaged skin surfaces, pigmentation issues, uneven texture, fine lines, and wrinkles. By dissolving the uppermost skin layers, chemical peels not only reverse these problems but also enhance overall skin health. Typically performed on the face, they are also effective on the back, chest, neck, shoulders, and upper arms, offering a versatile solution for healthier, more vibrant skin./p>

How Do Chemical Peels Work?

Chemical peels work by applying a solution of acids to the skin, which breaks down the bonds between dead skin cells on the outer layer, known as the stratum corneum. This process stimulates controlled exfoliation and triggers the skin's natural healing response, promoting new cell turnover and collagen production in the underlying dermis. The peel’s penetration depth can be adjusted to target specific skin concerns, such as pigmentation, texture, and wrinkles, resulting in smoother, more youthful skin as the treated layers shed and regenerate.

What Happens During the Chemical Peel Treatment?

During your chemical peel treatment, a specialized solution, typically containing a combination of acids, is carefully applied to your skin. This solution begins to exfoliate the outer layers of your skin, and you may experience a tingling or mild stinging sensation as the solution works. The treatment lasts 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the type of peel used. Afterward, the solution is neutralized and removed, and a cooling gel is applied to your skin.

Recovery: Side Effects, Downtime, Aftercare

After your chemical peel, you may experience mild redness, swelling, and a sensation similar to sunburn. Your skin might begin to peel or flake within a few days as it renews itself. Downtime is minimal, with most people resuming normal activities within a few days. For optimal recovery, avoid sun exposure and use a gentle moisturizer to soothe your skin.

Results: Onset, Longevity, Frequency

You can expect to see initial improvements in your skin’s texture and tone within a few days after your chemical peel, with more significant results emerging as your skin continues to heal. The full benefits typically become visible within 2 to 4 weeks. The results generally last several months, depending on the peel's depth and your skin’s condition. To maintain and enhance your results, you may need periodic peels, which can be scheduled based on your skincare goals.
