SHOULD ACNE PEELS BURN MY SKIN...

There are many effective acne treatments in Chico, or peel treatments, that leave the skin in a healthy state with no redness, no down-time, and great results.  Treatments for acne, acne scarring, and aging are available at 916SKIN - ACNE TREATMENT CLINIC. (530) 503.9169



Samantha from Sex & the City had the skincare industry whipped into a frenzy when she was seen with a burnt face from the result of a chemical peel. Professional peels should not leave you red!






That's right, acne peels, chemical peels and/or professional peels should never leave your face red! Not unless you are having a deep chemical peel, which in that case, should only be performed by a physician.

There are 4 classifications of chemical peels: very superficial, superficial, medium and deep. The type of peeling agent(s) used, formulation, concentration and pH, are a few of the variables that set one peel apart from another. The depth the peeling solution travels into the skin is multi-factorial, and the number of layers and/or the amount of time the peel is left on the skin before it's neutralized also weighs in on the skin's response. Chemical peels that leave the skin red, burnt or blistered are commonly due to at-home experimentation, and occasionally inexperienced estheticians.


Your skincare practitioner may perform spot testing on the skin prior to your peel, and will go over your medical history to help determine, which peel, if any, is right for you. Experience has revealed that true allergic reactions to chemical peels are rare. But, should it occur, just know that even the most resilient, non-sensitive skin type can have a reaction.

Just for laughs, here is Samanatha's scene
