Peels are one of the most popular skin treatments. Chemical peels are generally a facial treatment that gets rid of the dry, dead skin, adds youth to old, sensitive skin and takes care of acne and oily skin problems.
This beauty treatment involves the application of a chemical solution. Almost all the chemicals used in the beauty peel are from natural sources like fruit, vinegar and sugarcane. A vitamin supplement can also be added. For best results, go for 3 chemical peels in one-month gaps and repeat every 6 months, says Dr Dale Brown.
TCA Peel has emerged as one of the most popular, safe and affordable skin treatments. The best part is that it does not have any side effect, says Mariam Eaton, a regular user. Many docs suggest a follow-up beauty care routine, the most common being cryotherapy (a dry ice skin treatment) and a hydrating facial, especially for dry skin types.
