Skin peels are used to remove the outer layer of skin. They expose a fresh new layer of skin. There are different types, ranging from more natural mild 'fruit-based' peels, right on down to the heavy-duty 'glycolic acid' peels. Most peels burn or eat the outer (dead) layer of skin away.
I've done glycolic acid peels on myself and friends. It makes your skin super-smooth, and fresh-looking. Glycolic acid is very dangerous, though. It is best to have a peel done by a professional, because if it is misused, it will literally burn a hole in your skin. It cannot be 'washed' off, it must be neutralized with a solution of baking soda and water.
It is nice before a big event, such as a cruise, a wedding, or any event where you and your face may be on display. It does leave skin extra-sensitive to light and heat, so take extra care in these situations.
The lovely softness does not last long, though. Usually, your skin looks dull again in as little as a week. Some people use it regularly to combat wrinkles and age spots.

properly i would not say of course, using fact the chemical product has led to the redness. particular for chemical peels this is going to take a million-2 weeks for the floor to return returned to favourite. those peels are particularly risky so that's ultimate to no longer do it.

not personally, I'm not brave enough, but i know someone who has. it was quite painful for her afterwards and she looked a bit of a mess to begin with straight away but in the long run she thought it was worth it. why not ring round the clinics and ask for a consultation? cant hurt and some places offer consultations free of charge.
