Best Body Peels For Different Skin Types

How Can You Start Body Chemical Peels At Blanco Aesthetics 

When you step foot outside, do you feel your skin gets attacked? Stepping outdoors exposes our skin to harmful chemicals and radiation, which can dull its radiance. Dermatology advancements offer solutions like chemical body peels for different skin types. At Blanco Aesthetics our experienced professionals understand the importance of safe and effective skin treatments. 

Is Body Peeling Safe?

Beyond facial rejuvenation, our full-body chemical peels extend their results to those areas more commonly overlooked in skincare routines. These peels are specially formulated for delicate areas like underarms, knees, knuckles, inner thighs, and back of the neck. 

These treatments, designed by professionals to minimize discomfort, give patients almost zero to minimal downtime to continue their normal activities.

Depending upon the penetration, ranging from superficial to medium depth, the chemical body peel will tackle your skin condition. The penetration level will affect dry skin, uneven texture, and slight hyperpigmentation. This range uses alpha hydroxy acid, including glycolic or lactic acid to attain brighter and smoother skin.

The peels that go to the deeper layers can improve more serious conditions such as keratosis pilaris, chicken skin, and deeper forms of hyperpigmentation.

 
What Is The Best Chemical Body Peel?

Choosing the best chemical peel for the body depends on the skin concern it is addressing. There are peels specifically made to tackle problems such as body peels for hyperpigmentation or stretch marks. 

• Body peel for hyperpigmentation

Peels containing ingredients such as kojic acid, azelaic acid, and arbutin are effective for hyperpigmentation. These lightening agents lighten dark spots and even the skin tone while addressing sun spots, age spots, and melasma. Besides, the combination of peel with glycolic acid can enhance the results.

• Body Peel for Keratosis Pilaris

Keratosis pilaris a common skin condition. It affects the skin with small, rough bumps. For this particular concern, the best chemical peel for the body would be those containing salicylic acid, as they exfoliate built-up dead skin cells contributing to skin bumps.

• Body Peel for Stretch Marks

While peels can’t completely remove stretch marks, they improve their visibility. The glycolic acid peels promote the production of collagen. They are known to improve the general texture of the skin, making the stretch marks less visible.

When Should I Get a Chemical Peel?

Before any type of body peel, consultation with a dermatologist is necessary. They will assess your skin type, overall health, and the kind of skin concern. Once this analysis is done, experts will recommend the most appropriate peel for the required strength. 

Before coming to a recommended number, several parameters are to be worked out and discussed, as follows:

• Sun Exposure

Do not go for body peels if you have undergone much sun exposure lately. Sunburned or tanned skin might increase irritation or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation after the peel.

• Skin Conditions

Certain skin conditions, like eczema or psoriasis, may not benefit from having a body peel. Discuss previous conditions with your dermatologist to determine if a peel is safe.

• Medications

Body peels enhance the sensitivity of the sun with a variety of medications. You should mention or discuss any ongoing medications with the dermatologist.

How Long Does Body Peel Last?

Much like facials, body peels are treatments that reveal a brighter version of the skin with a smoother texture. The longevity will differ from one person to another since skin concerns are different. 

The longevity of the results depends on a few factors:

• Body Chemical Peel Depth

Light superficial peels with mild AHAs show the most transient results, as short as 1-2 months. Combinations of acids and TCA, used in medium-depth peels, could last longer—3-6 months—as they address deeper problems.

• Skin Turnover

Your skin has a natural turnover, where dead cells are shed off your skin. The rate differs from one individual to the other, changing the longevity of results. Younger patients have faster turnover and may experience a more rapid fading of results than others.

• Sun Exposure

Resurfaces skin aging and undoes the peel. This is why proper, consistent sun protection with at least SPF 30 is essential to maintain the body’s chemical peel’s benefits—not allowing it to lead to hyperpigmentation.

• Skin Care Routine

Maintaining a consistent skincare routine with hydrating products that include active ingredients, keys to your concerns, makes all the difference in how long your peel will last.

• Moisturizing is Key

Your skin tends to dry out after getting a chemical body peel. With that, be sure to use gentle, fragrance-free moisturizers to keep your skin well-hydrated and spur healthy regrowth of cells.

• Schedule Follow-Up Treatments

Depending on the depth of your peel and desired result, discuss how often follow-up treatments are necessary with your dermatologist. Scheduling appointments with Blanco Aesthetics will help in sustaining those beneficial effects. 

Conclusion

A body peel is an intense, potentially life-altering way to achieve smoother, brighter, more even-toned skin. Getting familiar with your particular skin type and tailoring your peel to suit your concerns assures the delivery of real results.  Of course, good skincare habits focused on hydration and sun protection will help keep your body peel glow shining as long as possible.
