The Resurgence of Chemical Peels

The fall season always seems to be the busiest of all. Back-to-school programs, sports, and business or social events are bogging down our days and our wallets! You were planning on doing "a little something" to improve the appearance of your skin before the holidays but are worried about time & cost. Don't be! At the Center for Facial Plastic Surger and Laser Skin Care in Albany NY, there is a wide variety of chemical peeling agents at our disposal which remain proven and evidence-based to improve skin texture, wrinkles, scars & discoloration of photo-damaged skin. Trichloroacetic acid (TCA), salicylic acid and glycolic acid are inexpensive, often with limited downtime, and achieve asthetic results. Chemical peels are great for exfoliation and regeneration of tissue. Alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), such as glycolic acid, lightest of the peels, do wonders for fine lines, wrinkles & texture if done in a series. Combined with microdermabrasion, IPL treatments or injectibles you will do very well!
