CHEMICAL PEEL FOR
ACNE - GOOD?
I have seen a client who has approached
me for blemish solution recently. He explained to me that he has been with a
professional for about a year and his acne has not become better but instead
otherwise. He has been prescribed with numerous skincare products, oral and
topical prescriptions (oral anti-biotic, topical anti-biotic, oral accutane
& topical Vitamin A - Tretinoin), laser treatment and chemical peel.
Wow...
What actually caught my attention is
whether chemical peel really benefits acne patient/client? Well nobody dares
to mention a complete yes or no but I would like to offer my opinions in
order for you to make an educated decision.
When you are still having acne,
undergoing chemical peel would mean that you will not be able to continue
using anti-blemish products after that. This is because your skin is still
'raw and red'. Your skin simply could not be able to withstand another round
of 'attack'. Undergoing chemical peel also does not mean that your acne will
disappear almost immediately after that.
What makes things even worse is that,
if you have certain skin condition prerequisite, you are likely have another
round of breakout. Under this new situation, you are quite unlikely to use
anti-blemish products.
Chemical peel is still very beneficial
for lightening scaring especially left behind by acne. It does not mean
remove scars totally but lighten their appearance.
However, I would feel that chemical
peel would still be beneficial to certain extent when your acne/blemish are
drying up and near to flattening. Under this situation, I would feel that
the pros outweigh the cons.
Remember, when you are recommended
with chemical peel solution, think about it first!
