SKIN UPDATE! CHEMICAL PEEL at LilyDermis!
Lately I have been low key about my skin and trying to listen to what I am told and trust the healing process! It is great to feel the fresh skin coming through and slowly see the texture improve. I am really paranoid about wrinkles and scarring to when I looked into the benefits of the chemical peel Dr. Farrokh Farrahi recommended to me! With the success we had with the first treatment I was excited to head in for another step to improvement!
WHAT IS A CHEMICAL PEEL?!
A chemical peel or chemexfoliation is a treatment in which an acid solution is used to remove the damaged outer layers of the skin. In performing chemical peels, alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), beta hydroxy acids (BHA), acid (TCA), or phenol are applied to the skin.
WHAT CAN A CHEMICAL PEEL DO?
A chemical peel can diminish many signs of aging on the face as well as the hands, neck, and chest. Chemical peels also treat some skin conditions. Chemical peels is used to treat some types of acne and conditions that discolour the skin. Whether you receive a chemical peel to diminish signs of aging or treat a skin condition, you can see fewer lines and wrinkles, more even skin colour, brighter complexion and/or smoother skin.
Chemical peels can treat:
Acne (some types)
Age spots
Discolouration (blotchy complexion, uneven skin tone)
Dull complexion
Fine lines (especially under the eyes and around the mouth)
Freckles
Melasma
Rough-feeling skin
Sun-damage skin
MY EXPERIENCE
With the chemical peel I was worried about the potential redness and skin peeling that I have heard of online and such but for me I was only a little pink for about an hour or so and then minimal peeling over the next few days! I barely noticed other than around my mouth and chin area which was actually an area of concern for me with scarring - so I will take that as a good sign! My face feels SO SMOOTH! Within a week I noticed more shine in areas and an improvement in the way my products penetrated the skin. I had less of a feeling of product sitting on the skin and felt it absorbed much better. I love that feeling as I have feeling like I have something on my skin. I also can’t stress enough how much I love the light therapy! I find it makes me feel so pampered and rejuvenated.
Here I have linked some more details about LED Light Therapy and all its amazing benefits!
MY KEY POST PEEL PRODUCT
The chemical peel creating that fresh layer of skin of course comes with the risk of sensitivity to sun damage! I knew from the advice of my skin specialists that SPF would be my best friend so I immediately made sure I had my Fré Protect Me with my post care kit from LilyDermis. The worst thing can be ruining your freshly TREATED skin by not taking the correct steps DAILY to keep up the great things and prevent all the bad things! On August 27-28 my code TEAMB will save you 40% OFF the DETOX ME SET which includes the Protect Me and a few other amazing products including my favourite Detox Me 2 min post workout mask! SO good for anyone who gets breakouts from their intense workouts!
SPEAKING OF SPF … Fré’s new Body line has an amazing FULL BODY SPF that I have been using daily and LOVING. I will be posting a full review on this line with a special savings for you guys on next weeks skin Sunday so keep an eye out! Send me any questions you have on SPF & why it’s important or Fré in general!
WHAT IS NEXT?
Up next is another Microdermabrasion treatment in a couple weeks to break up another layer of that unhealthy skin and hopefully take away scarring and more of my congested pores! I find I personally get the same areas of concern and slowly with these treatments I have been getting smaller and less freuent breakouts even in these areas! It is exciting for me and I cannot wait to see what the next few treatments bring!
CONSISTENCY
Something that I can’t stress enough in my entire industry of wellness, beauty and health is consistency! This is absolutely no different. Having one skin treatment here and there of course is going to help overall and really make you feel so good BUT that being said regular treatments with a plan go 100x further. By creating this monthly membership program I believe that Lilydermis has done something so fantastic and client based This is a way for you to ensure you are sticking to your skin regiment and not sacrificing your own self care! The added bonus is you save so much by doing a monthly membership! I have linked below for you guys to check out the options!
