As people age, the sun, conditions, and gravity take a toll on skin, causing it to sag and wrinkle. One tool used to combat the aging process is the chemical peel procedure. A chemical peel uses a chemical solution to improve and smooth the texture of the facial skin by removing its damaged outer layers. It is helpful for those individuals with facial blemishes, wrinkles and uneven skin pigmentation. Phenol, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and alphahydroxy acids (AHAs) are used for this purpose. However, the precise formula of the chemical peel procedure may be adjusted to meet each patient's needs. Although a chemical peel may be performed in conjunction with a facelift, it is not a substitute for such surgery, nor will it prevent or slow the aging process.
