Top 4 Acne Peels

There are so many types of peels available and the word "peel" is so over-used these days that you could write an entire book on them. I will give you the top choices I know of and stick to what I call real peels.

A real peel will remove several layers of outer skin revealing the healthy new skin underneath. If you have ever had sunburn and then peeled - you will know exactly what I mean by "new skin."

These peels work in a similar fashion. Here are the four I have the most experience with.

1. Glycolic Acid Peel - is a very strong version of the alpha hydroxy fruit acid mixture. It works by loosening the dead and ready to shed skin cells. It does not damage or burn any live cells and removes only the outermost layers. It leaves the skin softer and more even toned and usually takes 2-3 treatments over a period of a month to be noticeable.

2. TCA Peel This is a true acid peel usually performed by a dermatologist or certified salon esthetician. This treatment does burn the outer layers of skin and carries with it some discomfort and risk of infection. It all but removes the outer layers of skin and there is a healing time of about one and a half to two weeks.

It has varying strengths and time frames to be used on the skin and should only be performed by a certified professional. These peels can give good results but are painful and can be costly. You will, however, get almost immediate results... as soon as the old skin peels off you have very even skin tone and reduction of spots and wrinkles.

3. Phenol Peel. These peels act in much the same way as the TCA peels but are very strong and are required to be performed by a medical professional. I don't recommend you to use phenol peels, as they have been replaced by the milder glycolic and TCA peels in the dermatological profession.

4. Skin Culture USA Peel for deep layer skin renewal. This is a natural mixture that has been in use since the 1930's. It provides the same results as the stronger phenol and TCA peels, but without burning the skin or risk of infection. I have personally used these peels for over 4 years and have had great results!

Chris Gibson talks extensively about this remarkable product in his book "Acne Free in 3 Days" and the wonders it has done in removing the old scarring my acne had left behind.

I would recommend this treatment to anyone wishing to have clearer skin or wanting to reduce wrinkles and photoaging in a dramatic way. Reasonable in cost and very effective describes the Skin Culture USA Peel. You can learn more about it by following the next link...
