Daily, skin cells die, flake off and are replaced by
new cells from beneath.
As we age, this process happens less often. As a result,
the skin
becomes wrinkled and blotchy and begins to show signs
of age.

Through the application of a chemical solution used
to remove dead skin
cells, a chemical peel tightens the skin and reduces wrinkling. This results
in the stimulation and production of new skin cells and restores a more
youthful appearance.
Like laser resurfacing, the chemical peel works by removing the top layers
of the skin to expose unlined, new skin underneath. Phenol, trichloroacetic
acid (TCA) and alphahydroxy acids (AHAs) are used for this purpose.
Trichloroacetic acid is most commonly used for medium-depth peeling.
Fine surface wrinkles, superficial blemishes and pigment problems are
commonly treated with TCA. The results of TCA peel are usually less
dramatic and not as long-lasting as those of a phenol peel.
Phenol is the strongest of the chemical solutions and produces a deep
peel. It is used mainly to treat deep facial wrinkles and sun-damaged skin.
Since phenol sometimes lightens the treated areas, your skin
pigmentation may determine whether you are a candidate for this
procedure. Phenol is used mainly on the face as scarring can result from
its application to other body areas.
During a chemical peel a chemical solution is applied to smooth and
generally improve the texture of the facial skin by removing its damaged
outer layers.
Each year thousands of chemical peels are performed in the United
States.
While laser resurfacing has replaced the chemical peel to some extent in
recent years, Dr. Gendler feels the chemical peel still has certain
advantages over laser peeling. There are also some drawbacks
associated with laser resurfacing that are not always associated with
chemical peels. These include the lingering residual redness of the skin
that can sometimes be a side effect of laser resurfacing.
Dr. Gendler will be happy to discuss the advantages of the chemical peel
with you during your consultation. If you have a history of herpes, you
should inform Dr. Gendler during your consultation.
A number of skin conditions can be improved with a chemical peel: I found a sample essay, possibly better book review format, geography papers.

around the mouth
- hyperpigmentation
- acne scars
- sun-damaged skin
- age spots

While a chemical peel is not a substitute
for a facelift it is
often performed
with a facelift as an additional step in the rejuvenation process.
