how to remove scars on legs fast with chemical peels hi everyone in today's video we'll be
covering the different strengths of peels and the best peels for your skin concern or skin type
we'll be looking at how i administer a chemical appeal on my face and on my body what to do
before and after appeal and products that will make your results ten times better number one
types there are three main types of peels light or superficial peels medium depth peels and deep
peels for ligth peels they include glycolic acid 10 to 50 lactic acid 10 to 30 percent
mandelic acid 40 and salicylic acid 30 percent these type of peels can be done at home
but you need to have several sessions done before you see significant improvement it removes the top
layer but doesn't penetrate as deep next medium depth these include glycolic acid 70 percent
salicylic acid over 30 and tc appeal 30 to 50 this is kind of a sweet spot for me
um because it's not a deep peel to where i would burn myself but at the same time i can
administer that significant improvement because it penetrates much deeper than the epidemic it goes
to the dermis at least the top layer of the damage and it helps with pigmentation issues number three
d pills these ones are hardcore these need usually a physician not even a professional at
a spa they address anti-aging issues pigmentation issues but like i mentioned they're hard hardcore
they go deep deep into the dermis so be careful well you can't even do it on your own next the
best chemical peels for your skin concern and or your skin type so if you're someone who has darker
skin if you have dry skin if you have sensitive skin you will benefit from using lactic acid and
mandelic acid peels these peels are very gentle if you have acne prone skin or oily skin slice like
acid or jessner peel are two pills that you will find very beneficial for glycolic acid that works
for all skin types but if you have super sensitive skin you may want to avoid glycolic acid although
it's very effective and then if you have high pigmentation peels such as tca v peel cosmelan
are great peels now onto demonstration i'm going to be doing my face and my body the products
i'll be using are gentle cleanser latex free gloves alcohol wipes petroleum jelly to protect
chemical peels lactic acid glycotc i'm going to be using tca for my legs i'm glycolic acid for
my elbows and lactic acid for my face that's my bowl and my fan brush my moisturizer my sunscreen
my cotton rounds and my body lotion let's go alright first i'm gonna be cleansing my face
all right so we can get a fresh palette
wipe it off i'm gonna be using alcohol wipes to remove any um residue and all and then i'm gonna
be protecting with the petroleum jelly my eyes my nose my mouth now i'm gonna be taking the peel
just using my fan brush to gently apply it all over my face i'm using 25 lactic acid because i
don't want to burn myself i generally don't like administering the peel on my face when i do it has
to be a light light peel all right that's it i'm gonna time myself for this pill i waited about two
minutes i believe and then i neutralize it with water you can neutralize with baking soda as well
and then i apply the moisturizer a gel moisturizer so it can soothe my skin
and after my moisturizer, I applied a sunscreen
next, I'm going to be demonstrating how I apply it on my legs I'm doing the same thing cleansing
my skin all right I'm going to be using a TCA peel tca 30% I wouldn't try this on my face at home I'm
just so scared I don't want to burn my skin and I use tretinoin anyway so I try to stay away from
um strong pills on my face all right I'm applying it on my legs
generally, TCA peel can be applied onto so you can use three for about four layers actually
in this video I only did two layers and I still got some peeling and that's it
plan it all over this is the first layer I'm gonna come back for a second later
my problem area is my feet really just really got dark so I'm trying to treat that
if you look at my legs you can see some spots that are still fading but my legs have come a long way
for sure all right here I'm just neutralizing the peel although TCA peels self-neutralize so
you don't even need to neutralize them and then I'm applying a soothing body lotion on my legs
yeah and that is it for the legs next what you do before and after a peel before the
peel if you go see a specialist or physician they're gonna have you stop exfoliating one week
before your chemical peels first they're gonna take your medical history if everything's fine
and they'll have you stop exfoliating one week before at least one week or about a week before
your chemical peel they would also have you stop things like retinoids pigment lighteners
and acne medication because these things impact how your skin tolerates the peel right
and last products to use to make your results 10 times better if you go see a domestic for example
to get a chemical peel they would put you on uh retinoids and or pigment lighteners say four to
six weeks before your chemical peel even um these medications will help speed up your results right
and also as a safety measure things like retinoids help the healing process so when you get a
chemical peel it's kind of like lifting um i don't know like a sheet almost so when it peels and your
skin peels sorry then you see fresh new skin um retinoids and pigment liners have been working
um behind the scenes to ensure that there's no reproduction of melanin and the skin heals
quickly right my friends thank you so much for watching i have one question for you what is
your most concerning skin issue these days i want to hear them leave them in the comments section
