Chemical Peels

Chemical peels have been used for centuries to improve the appearance of wrinkles and discoloration. While a chemical peel can be used anywhere on the body, they are generally used on the face, neck, hands, or chest.

A chemical solution is applied to the skin that causes it to eventually peel off, revealing skin that is smoother and has a more even-toned appearance. Fine lines and wrinkles are diminished.

There are three basic types of chemical peels:

Superficial Peel: Sometimes referred to as a “lunchtime peel”, a superficial peel uses a mild acid to penetrate only the outer layer of the skin to gently exfoliate it. This type of peel is used to refresh the face, neck, chest or hands.
Medium Peel: A medium depth peel penetrates the skin more deeply than a superficial peel and may cause a second-degree burn of the skin. It is used to improve ageing skin, as well as, smooth rough skin and treat some precancerous skin growths.
Deep Peel: A high concentration of Trichlororacetic Acid (TCA) or Phenol is applied to deeply penetrate several layers of the skin to removed damaged skin cells. Deep peels are used to treat severe wrinkles, long-term sun damage, pronounced pigment changes, and lesions and growths on the skin. Patients may see dramatic results in skin appearance. This procedure must be done by a Doctor, is used only on the face, and may be performed only once. Deep peels are not done on darker skin types as a bleaching of the skin occurs.

Reviews:

“With a 2nd degree burn from a chemical peel, I was desperate for relief. Unfortunately, a plastic surgeon recommended a peel just 2 weeks prior to radiation. The peel was on my chest adjacent to my cancer, on my breast. The Recovery by NeoGenesis provided immediate relief. The blisters repaired and the skin smoothed out. The redness has dissipated and I am still seeing improvement. I am also using the Recovery serum on my breast and I am into the 9th day of radiation and not showing signs of redness. I plan to use the serum throughout radiation to prevent blistering and scarring.” ~ DW

“I have been using the NeoGenesis product, Recovery, for a chemical burn and for side effects from radiation. Prior to radiation, I had a plastic surgeon remove the scar tissue in my breast resulting from a lumpectomy. Unfortunately, I simultaneously opted to include an elective procedure of a laser and chemical peel, which resulted in severe blistering and burning. Recovery truly helped me to heal and relieved my discomfort. At this time there is almost no scarring.

In mid-August, I started radiation. I used Recovery daily and surprised all of the technologists and doctors (especially since I have Lupus), as I did not peel, blister, or scar. My skin darkened for a week or two, and that has also dissipated. I am still using Recovery to help with the darkness from radiation.

Your product Recovery saved the day. I hope other cancer patients have the opportunity to use your stem cell skincare products to save their skin.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!” ~ DW

“I started using NeoGenesis skin care products in January. I immediately noticed a difference in the tone and texture of my skin and could not stop touching my face. I was using the Recovery Serum after having a series of peels and could not believe how wonderful it made my face feel. It calmed my skin immediately and took away the stinging sensation as soon as it was applied. I used the Recovery twice daily along with the Skin Serum, and Intensive Moisturizer and I love what is has done for my skin.

I have been using the full product line for 7 months now and I continue to see improvement in how my skin looks and feels.

My friends have actually asked what work I had done because my skin is looking so amazing. The best testimonial though has to be when asked how old I look, people guess between 35-40. Thank you so much NeoGenesis!”

“As my initial pictures indicate, I had a reaction to a peel. I applied Recovery over about half my neck. The next set of pictures shows my neck roughly one hour later. The final set of pictures show my neck roughly 24 hours later. The side that I put Recovery on completely calmed down. The side I did not put Recovery on, blistered! Ouch. For a reaction to a peel, as a licensed Aesthetician, I recommend Recovery right away!” ~ SY
