One of the most effective ways to get back the glow is to have a light chemical peel in a clinic. Many people have been put off chemical peels by the misconception that they are all harsh and leave skin sore and flaking for weeks. There are some excellent and very gentle peels available that leave skin looking fresher and don't require any down-time'. SkinCeutical's new Gel Peels, are extremely kind to skin. You can choose to have a single peel which will simply slough off the dead skin cells and get skin glowing again or, if anti-aging is your skincare goal you can try a series of up to six peels. This will help diminish the appearance of fine lines, smooth rough skin and help fade hyper-pigmentation. There is also a special type of peel to help skin troubled by spots or acne, which has been proven to help heal skin marred by break-out and blackheads.
