Chemical peels can improve the skin's appearance. In this treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the skin, which makes it eventually peel off. The new skin is usually smoother and less wrinkled than the old skin.

 

Chemical peels can be done on the face, neck, or hands. They can be used to:

 

• Reduce fine lines under the eyes and around the mouth.

• Treat wrinkles caused by sun damage and aging.

• Improve the appearance of mild scars.

• Treat certain types of acne.

• Reduce age spots, freckles, and dark patches (melasma)
