Mild chemical peels — what are they?
Mild chemical peels, often referred to as superficial peels, are treatments that use gentle acids like alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) to exfoliate the top layer of your skin. Unlike stronger chemical peels that require significant downtime, mild peels work gradually, targeting the outermost layer to reveal fresher, healthier skin underneath.
Ingredients like glycolic acid, lactic acid, and salicylic acid are commonly used, making these treatments safe and effective for most skin types.
The benefits of regular mild chemical peels
Mild chemical peels are an excellent choice if you’re looking to improve your skin’s texture and overall appearance without the harshness of more aggressive treatments.
Key benefits include:
- Gently removes dead skin cells
- Unclogs pores
- Stimulates cell turnover
- Reveals brighter, smoother skin
- Promotes a more even complexion
- Improves skin tone and texture
- Reduces the appearance of fine lines, minor scars, and discoloration caused by sun damage or acne
- Improves the smoothness and radiance of your skin
- Reduces breakouts
In addition, mild chemical peels boost hydration and product absorption by removing the top layer of dead skin cells. This allows skin care products like serums and moisturizers to penetrate more effectively, meaning your favorite products will work harder and deliver better results.
What to expect during and after a mild chemical peel
Mild chemical peels are quick treatments that can often be done during your lunch break. You might experience a tingling sensation during the peel, but this typically subsides quickly. Afterward, your skin may look slightly red or feel tight, but there’s little to no downtime.
Regular treatments every 4-6 weeks can lead to cumulative results that leave your skin looking refreshed and youthful.
