Chemical Peel
About the Surgery
A chemical peel is a cosmetic treatment in which a chemical solution is applied to the skin to remove the outer layers of dead and damaged skin cells. The procedure is designed to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, age spots, acne scars, and other skin imperfections.
