Age Spots are not Beauty Marks

By Elen Hanszen


As we age, all of us seem to long for our more youthful clear skin, and are upset about age spots, and the lines and wrinkles that inevitably form. As the signs of aging become more noticeable, a person can start to have less confidence in their appearance. If you too are worried about your skin condition and are looking for a reliable way to restore your skin then a skin peel could be your solution.

A good way to rejuvenate skin is the use of a chemical skin peel, to enable the skin to look younger. Your face will have less obvious signs of age on it, such as fine lines and wrinkles. Fresher skin will be revealed underneath the peel, getting rid of dead cells and making skin look fresher and cleaner and of course, it will help make wrinkles less significant.

If you have blemishes on your skin such as large freckles, age spots or liver spots, the use of a reliable and effective skin peel will help to reduce the appearance of these spots. Your skin will become smooth and supple with the use of chemical peels giving you a younger look. For those who have had minor or major issues with acne, a chemical peel; fewer pimples is the expected result, and less inflammation.

One of the advantages of the chemical peel over beauty products is that it can be done in one sitting or in a few sessions instead of waiting for results after weeks or months product applications. Many plastic surgery solutions are permanent and more invasive for the patient, and a peel is nowhere close to that level. The length and resulting look of a procedure like a chemical peel will be a much more noticeable effect than a simple beauty cream that claims to increase collagen levels.

Chemical peels are pretty self explanitory; the outermost layers of facial skin are peeled away, promoting new skin growth, and showing the fresher, newer looking skin on top. Because the re-grown skin is new it has a fresh, bright, tight appearance and fewer blemishes or wrinkles.

Chemical peels are cosmetic procedures that require no pain medication since it is not painful at any stage of the process. Typically, the patient will return for more superficial chemical peel treatments every second week or once a week, for a total of about 6 times for optimal results. The more superficial the peel, the less risk is attached to it. The side effects of a superficial peel often last only a few days. However, some individuals may experience hyperpigmentation, or changes to the look and colouring of the skin afterwards. The capacity for skin to produce pigment is sometimes affected after a deeper skin peel.

To make the skin heal more speedily following the procedure, a patient should clean the skin often and moisturize, this will promote healing and stop infections or rashes. Sunscreen is also another recommendation that physicians will usually give a patient before having a skin peel.
