Cosmetic treatments have been getting better and more efficient with new developments and improvements in technology. We all yearn for an even, blemish-free skin but as we age, we're constantly exposed to elements that cause damage to our skin.
Simple cosmetic treatments such as chemical peels and microdermabrasion help peel off damaged skin layers, to reveal soft and youthful skin, improving appearance. Let's talk about chemical peels and microdermabrasion and help you figure out which one is right for you.
What Is a Chemical Peel?
Chemical peeling is a cosmetic procedure where chemicals are applied to the skin to peel off the top layers, improving the skin's texture. Stronger chemicals penetrate deeper into the skin, peeling off more layers, depending on the condition of the skin and the desired outcome for the treatment.
Chemical peels are used to treat conditions such as:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Crow's feet
- Acne
- Melasma
- Sagging skin
- Deep scarring
- Hyperpigmentation
The peeling process can cause skin irritation and sensitivity. Deeper chemical peels can be slightly painful and take longer to heal compared to lighter peels.
What Is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a treatment procedure that involves removing dead skin from the epidermis (the outermost layer of the skin) using a vacuum. The procedure is minimally invasive, painless, and has no after-treatment downtime.
Microdermabrasion is used to treat the following skin conditions:
- Minor scars
- Hyperpigmentation
- Clogged pores
- Acne
- Rosacea
- Fine lines
Which One Is Right For You?
Both treatments work great to improve the skin texture and appearance. However, a chemical peel is ideal for people looking to treat deeper skin issues and achieve longer-lasting results.
On the other hand, microdermabrasion is better suited for those looking for a quick fix as results are visible after the first treatment. It's important to note that microdermabrasion requires a series of six to twelve treatments to achieve maximum results.
