**What is the appeal of a chemical peel**

Well, there are many appeals as it happens...fresher skin, brighter, more nourished, rejuvenated appearance, the list goes on. Peels don't have to be aggressive or have any associated downtime. For the majority of people, a mild peel is sufficient to really give a boost and create a virtually flawless complexion. Of course, there are stronger peels available, ideal as an alternative to laser resurfacing and with no risk of scarring - any peel that you select should be tailor-made to treat your own skin imperfections, no matter how minimal or extensive they may be. In order to really get the most from our blogs and monthly articles in the local newspaper (link below) please respond directly to this blog, or email me directly and I'll be happy to reply to individual requests for information and advice. The most popular questions will then be compiled in an anonymous FAQ section for ease of reference. Happy reading everyone...

**Perfect Peels** - How to target sun damage, pigment and lots more

Skin Deep – October 2014

Welcome to ‘Skin Deep’ – This month’s feature looks at our ‘Peels and Pigment’. Any questions, just ask Dr. Angie Winnington-Sharp – www.cheshireskinclinic.com angie@cheshireskinclinic.com or 01925 263660 & 07967 481594. 

Next month – ‘Sporting Injuries, Muscular Sprains and Body Toning’.

The mention of a ‘chemical peel’ often instils fear into people, mainly due to many ‘sensationalist TV programs’ that only show extreme cases with very aggressive peels. The vast majority of peels are mild and can be done with little/no downtime.

Let’s face it, all products contain chemicals and the majority of them contain acids, but in a safe (low) percentage, hence there is no reason to misinterpret a peel as being ‘harmful’.

Peels can be exceptionally effective for rejuvenating tired/dull skin, getting rid of fine lines, unwanted pigmentation and sun damage, plus reducing scarring, acne, skin tags and a vast range of other dermatological conditions that are almost impossible to get treatments for on the NHS. In addition, they can be a great alternative to laser if someone is unsuitable for this treatment, or, conversely, they can enhance laser treatments if used in conjunction at appropriate time lapses.

Any professional clinic will start off at a ‘capped level’ to avoid skin damage and fully prepare the skin for any increase in strength that may be desired in the future. Common acid peels include Salicylic, Citric, Lactic, Malic and Azaelaic, plus combinations of these to multi-target areas. A professional skin clinic will also have the expertise to mix and formulate a peel specifically for an individual.

Depending on your individual goals it is possible to freshen the skin, clear congested skin and open pores. You may also want to eradicate fine lines/furrows and reduce the appearance of rosacea, hyperpigment and keratosis pilaris (rough/bumpy skin, looks as though covered in ‘goose pimples’).

The best results can be observed when combining treatments onto the neck and decollate at intervals, hence giving an even improvement. The use of products that repel water, but attract oils (lipophiles) also gives long-term anti-bacterial protection. So, for something that you can have in your lunch-break, why not treat your skin to the three beauty ‘Rs’: Radiance, Rejuvenation and (really) Ravishing.

**Body Sculpting and Non-Surgical Face Lifts**

Skin Deep – September 2014

Welcome to ‘Skin Deep’ – This month’s feature looks at our ‘Body Sculpting and Non-Surgical Face Lifts’.  Any questions, just ask Dr. Angie Winnington-Sharp – www.cheshireskinclinic.com angie@cheshireskinclinic.com or 01925 263660 & 07967 481594. 

Next month – ‘Peels and Pigment’.

With the (rare) nice weather that we have been having recently, many people are spurred into action to evaluate their personal look and take some time to try and improve on their fitness levels and physical appearance…the end goal being that it makes us look, and feel, better. Eating more healthily and doing exercise are the two best ways of kick-starting this regime.

However, sometimes we can all benefit from a little ‘helping hand’. Surgery is drastic and really is a last resort as there is literally ‘no going back’, hence non-surgical treatments are a perfect way of maximising the results that you can achieve with your own exercise and diet programs.

Radio-frequency is a pain free way of achieving great results and truly looking your best. It is fast, involves no needles and can be done on a lunch break. By using different customised treatment settings you can target cellulite, stretch marks and uneven skin on the body. This gives the effect of lifting and toning. By altering the treatment settings and parameters it is also possible to target areas on the face. The most common are ‘puffy/droopy’ eyes, upper neck, forehead and chest.

So if you feel like complimenting (and complementing) the good work that you’ve already started, then why not treat yourself to a little boost and look like yourself, not on a good day, but on a GREAT day.
