As our skin ages, it loses elasticity and collagen fibers in the dermal layer which can lead to wrinkles. A face lift can move and tighten tissue but does very little for eliminating wrinkles. Chemical & laser peels are the most effective way to remove wrinkles
.
Chemical peel uses a chemical solution to improve and smooth the texture of the facial skin by removing its damaged outer layers. It is helpful for those individuals with facial blemishes, wrinkles and uneven skin pigmentation.
Phenol, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and alphahydroxy acids (AHAs) are used for this purpose. The precise formula used may be adjusted to meet each patient's needs. Although chemical peel may be performed in conjunction with a facelift, it is not a substitute for such surgery, nor will it prevent or slow the aging process.
Chemical peels, laser peels and dermabrasions are variations of the same theme. By improving the skin texture, chemical peels and laser peels can produce some of the most dramatic results of any cosmetic surgery.
Each technique has its proponents, and the popularity of each seems to wax and wane over time, depending upon the then-current coverage in the mass media. What physicians have learned is that the final result is determined by controlling the depth of the skin injury. In my office, we use a scientifically based approach.
Offering superficial chemical peels for the earliest evidence of skin damage, medium-depth laser or chemical peels for moderate skin damage, and heavy-duty laser or chemical peels for severe wrinkles and skin damage.
We very often blend two techniques in special circumstances, and it is possible to do segmental work, for example, the area around the eyes or mouth. For many reasons, which I will gladly explain during your consultation, optimal results usually require full facial treatment.
No other procedure in the cosmetic surgeon's repertoire requires more judgment and experience than skin resurfacing, and no other procedure can produce such dramatic results. I and my dedicated team have 28 years of experience to help you in the recovery process.
Recovery time is immediate for superficial peels (the so-called "lunchtime" peel), five to eight days for medium peels, and ten to fourteen days for heavy peels. The recovery time is slightly shorter with the laser but the results are a bit inferior to a chemical peel in terms of wrinkle improvement.
Although there is significant swelling for the first two or three days, pain is seldom experienced after the first night with modern recovery techniques.
