As we age, this process slows to 50 days or more, causing a tired, uneven appearance. Chemical peels accelerate cell turnover, restoring a fresh, luminous, and healthy glow.<\/p>\n<h3>What are Chemical Peels effective for treating?<\/h3>\n<p>Chemical peels are versatile and beneficial for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Acne-prone skin and acne scars<\/li>\n<li>Dull, dry, or congested skin<\/li>\n<li>Fine lines, wrinkles, and aging skin<\/li>\n<li>Hyperpigmentation and sun-damaged skin<\/li>\n<li>Precancerous lesions (such as seborrheic keratoses)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Areas that can be treated:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Face<\/li>\n<li>Neck<\/li>\n<li>Chest<\/li>\n<li>Back<\/li>\n<li>Hands<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>What are the different types of Chemical Peels?<\/h3>\n<h4>Superficial Peels<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Target only the epidermal layer of the skin<\/li>\n<li>Usually a combination of acids such as salicylic, glycolic, mandelic, lactic, kojic, and azelaic acid<\/li>\n<li>The ZO Skin Health Stimulator Peel is an excellent example: non-irritating, stimulates cell renewal, and improves dull skin, acne congestion, and superficial pigmentation<\/li>\n<li>Results require a series of treatments and must be maintained with active skincare like ZO Skin Health and daily SPF<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Medium-Depth Peels<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Penetrate to the upper dermis<\/li>\n<li>Examples: TCA peel and Jessner peel<\/li>\n<li>Effective for dullness, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and premature aging<\/li>\n<li>Require an experienced physician\u2014the depth of the peel is both science and art<\/li>\n<li>To minimize risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, patients are pretreated with hydroquinone or botanical lighteners + retinol to regulate melanocytes<\/li>\n<li>Results are excellent, but the approach should be slow and steady for best outcomes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your skin specialist will determine the right peel and depth for your skin type and goals.<\/p>\n<h3>What should I expect after my Chemical Peel?<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Skin may feel warm with mild redness immediately after treatment<\/li>\n<li>Most peels are self-neutralizing and remain on the skin for up to 8 hours<\/li>\n<li>Resume daily activities, but avoid exercise, sweating, or sauna for 24\u201348 hours<\/li>\n<li>A custom home regimen (including active medical-grade skincare) will be prescribed to support recovery and maximize results<\/li>\n<li>Daily SPF 30 sunscreen is essential to protect your renewed skin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Contraindications \u2013 Who should avoid Chemical Peels?<\/h3>\n<p>Chemical peels are not suitable for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pregnant or lactating women<\/li>\n<li>Patients with active skin infection ( i.e. herpes cold sore)<\/li>\n<li>Patients who have taken oral isotretinoin (Roaccutan) in the past 6-12 months.<\/li>\n<li>Individuals using topical prescription creams (should discontinue 5\u20137 days before treatment)<\/li>\n<li>Summer months, due to the increased risk of sun exposure complications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"services":[144,143],"class_list":["post-3024","our-services","type-our-services","status-publish","hentry","services-face","services-treatments"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Chemical Peeling | Skin Rejuvenation | Stamatiou Aesthetics<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Chemical peels at Stamatiou Aesthetics improve skin texture, tone, and radiance, reducing discoloration and fine lines.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/drstamatiou.com\/en\/our-services\/chemical-peels\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Chemical Peeling | Skin Rejuvenation | Stamatiou Aesthetics\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Chemical peels at Stamatiou Aesthetics improve skin texture, tone, and radiance, reducing discoloration and fine lines.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/drstamatiou.com\/en\/our-services\/chemical-peels\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"\u03a0\u03bb\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c2 \u03c7\u03b5\u03b9\u03c1\u03bf\u03c5\u03c1\u03b3\u03cc\u03c2 V.
