Is Chemical Peels Make Acne Scars Worse?
No. Chemical peels in fact cure acne scars. The treatment uses a chemical solution to remove the outer layer of old skin. The new skin that replaces it is usually smoother and less scarred in appearance. A medium chemical peel removes skin cells from the epidermis and from portions of the upper part of your skin’s middle layer. It's used to treat wrinkles, acne scars and uneven skin tone. If you repeat the procedure as prescribed by your doctor, you may achieve the desired result. The peels work beneath the surface of your skin to turn over new skin cells and promote new skin cell growth, helping in reducing the acne scars over time, even for any marks of the past acne. Take a chemical/vi peel treatment yourself and check out the results.
