Skin facts — What a chemical peel won’t do
November 27th, 2008
It’s Thursday again and I still have chemical peels on the brain. So here is a list of what an at-home chemical won’t do for you (even chemical peels from a dermatologist or esthetician won’t do this):
- Get rid of a double chin
- Tighten skin
- Eliminate deep scarring (it can work wonders on superficial scars)
- Change the size of your pores
I definitely recommend at-home or professional chemical peels, but don’t expect miracles. This is a superficial treatment that will get you mild results and with persistance relatively good results.
If you have sensitive skin or have never had a chemical peel before, I’d recommend seeing an esthetician to get your first. You want to do it right and you don’t want to hurt your skin.

I would never go with chemical peels. You can always find some natural products that will make your skin healthy and you should have a great looking skin.
