Question: If I had a chemical peel on my face and upper chest, how long do the rejuvenating effects last? Is the skin reddened afterwards and for how long?

Answer: It depends on the type and depth of penetration. Please read my previous discussion on peels. You can expect a longer recovery period with prolonged redness with deeper penetrating peels. These often provide more-longer lasting results. For very superficial peels, the recovery is none or very short.

Question: I’ve been doing my research on chemical peels and I think I’m ready to get one done. It is a painful procedure?

Answer: It depends. Chemical peels are categorized into different types and their depth of penetration will dictate how much pain you will have. Any licensed skin care experts can perform the superficial type without much discomfort. The medium to deep chemical peels will require sedation/anesthesia.
