Skin Peels – Advantages of Different Types

Hello. My name is Libby Stewart, and I work here at Aurora Clinics as one of the team of nurse practitioners. What are the advantages of different types of peel? When you consult here at the clinic, your practitioner will help you decide on the right prescription based on your skin type and the specific problem area that you wish to address. The areas that you may be looking at would take into account maybe fine lines, pigmentation changes brought about by sun damage, blackheads, rosacea, open pores, or just a general unevenness of skin texture.

After the right prescription type has been assessed for you, we would start your treatment conservatively by applying a light layer of chemical to your face. This would be reviewed after a month, and depending on the results of that treatment, we might change the chemical formulas in the peels or maybe increase the level at which we’re working. For people with more severe problems or skin which has aged considerably who are considering a face lift, a deeper peel may be performed at the time of their procedure in theatre. These procedures are often shown on television programs such as “10 Years Younger” and do bring with them a longer downtime, or recovery time, than the light to moderate peels which are performed here at the clinic.

If you would like a consultation, please call us here at Aurora Clinics or please be in touch via the Internet. Thank you.
