The Best Deep Skin Peel
Both men and women are lining up in droves willing to pay
hundreds, if not thousands, for a good, deep skin peel. Is it
true that wrinkles can be cured, precancerous legions and spots
treated, acne cured along with its resultant scars, removal of
years of sun damage, freckles, etc? Yes, with a deep skin peels
all this and more is possible and thousands are done every day.
There are four different types of skin peels:
1) AHA peels - Glycolic, lactic, malic, etc... These are more
superficial and minimally effective. They are good for reduction
in oilyness and are effective in treating minor pimples. AHA
peels must be redone every 2-3 weeks for maximum effect.
2) BHA peels- Salicylic acid. This is, like AHA peels, a weaker
acid, but it has one major difference. It is oil or lipid
soluble. Unlike AHA peels, salicylic will actually go right into
all the pores and clean them out. It is therefore more effective
for minor acne than glycolic and the other AHA's. This is why
Murad salicylic acid) is so much more effective than Proactive
(benzoyl peroxide)
3) TCA peels - trichloroacetic acid. TCA peels are a deep skin
peel. They treat more skin ailments and conditions than any
other skin peel and are easier to use. Deep skin peels can treat
all stages of acne, reduce symptoms, kill acne causing bacteria
better than any other product, and even treat scars that have
resulted from acne. More dermatologists use TCA deep skin peels
than any other treatment for acne for these same reasons. It is
just as effective as Accutane without any of the real serious
side effects. The best thing is you only need to do 1 or 2 deep
TCA peels per year for maximum results. And you can now even
purchase these TCA peels for in home use.
4) Phenol. Phenol peels are rarely used as they often result in
permanent skin bleaching and pigmentation problems. Phenol is
toxic and requires anesthesia and heart monitoring. Almost no
one uses this peel any more.
Deep skin peels can be very effective and the TCA peel is
regarded by dermatologists to be the best one. It has been
touted as the fountain of youth in a bottle and is now available
for home use. It is the easiest to use, the most effective, and
safest.
