CHEMICAL PEEL
As we age, the accumulated effects of sun exposure, pollutants, acne and scarring can damage our skin and make us look older than we are. A chemical peel can address this problem; a non-invasive procedure designed to promote cell growth and produce smoother clearer skin. This procedure is also used to treat melasma (irregularly shaped brown patches found on the face and neck) and pre cancerous changes in the skin. Chemical peels can be performed on the face, neck, chest, arms, hands and legs. If you are considering this procedure, the following information will give you a good introduction to chemical peels. $85.00 per session
