When to Consider Chemical Peels?

You should consider this option if you have:

Skin discolorations, brown spots or blotchiness
Sun-damaged skin
Scars and wrinkled skin
Fine lines

Am I The Right Candidate for Chemical Peel?

Generally, fair-skinned and light-haired individuals are better candidates for chemical peels. If you have darker skin, you may also have good results, depending upon the type of problem being treated. However, you also may be more likely to have an uneven skin tone after the procedure.

The procedure is not recommended for individuals having cut or broken skin, suffering from a skin infection, sunburns, or has an active skin disease. If you have the following conditions.

Pregnant or nursing a baby
Have eczema, rosacea, psoriasis or dermatitis
Have taken Accutane in the last few months
Using skin lightening agents, products that contain ascorbic acid or acid-based products

Are Chemical Peels Painful?

While undergoing the procedure, you will just feel a stingy sensation that does not cause a great deal of pain. Spark Laser Center professionals use the gentlest peels which may cause crusting, stinging, irritation, or redness.
