How Does a Chemical Peel Work?
The solution used for the chemical peel is applied evenly to the targeted area with a brush and allowed to penetrate the skin. As this happens, the skin begins to lighten in color. When the process is complete, cold compresses are applied to the skin followed by a neutralizing solution. Chemical peels typically take between 30 and 90 minutes unless a deeper peel is performed which may take up to two hours to complete. With most peels, no sedation is necessary except for stronger peels. Patients can leave immediately following their appointment.
