Chemical Peel in Honolulu, Hawaii
Understanding Chemical Peel Treatments
A chemical peel is an innovative skin treatment designed to refresh and rejuvenate the skin by addressing multiple aesthetic concerns. This professional procedure helps reduce wrinkles, improve skin discoloration, and enhance overall skin quality, providing patients with a radiant and youthful appearance.
Treatment Capabilities
Chemical peels effectively target various skin concerns, including:
- Acne and persistent breakouts
- Signs of aging skin
- Dull skin texture
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Hyperpigmentation
- Dark spots
- Uneven skin tone
- Sun damage
How Chemical Peels Work
The treatment works by carefully removing aged and damaged outer skin layers, revealing healthy, undamaged skin beneath. By applying a specialized formula, the procedure stimulates skin cell renewal, resulting in smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin.
Customized Treatment Approach
Dr. Lee's approach to chemical peels is highly personalized. During the initial consultation, he considers individual skin type, aesthetic goals, and potential recovery time to develop a tailored treatment strategy.
Professional Expertise
As an oculofacial plastic surgeon, Dr. Lee utilizes various professional chemical peel solutions, including modified Jessner's solution, salicylic acid, tricholoroacetic acid (TCA), and pure retinol. This specialized knowledge ensures safe and effective treatments.
Treatment Expectations
Treatment sessions typically last 30-60 minutes, with healing periods varying based on peel intensity. Patients can choose between milder treatments with minimal downtime or more intensive peels for dramatic results.
Recovery and Aftercare
Recovery times range from a few days to two weeks, depending on the treatment's depth. Dr. Lee provides comprehensive post-procedure instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.
Important Considerations
- Cosmetic procedure, not covered by insurance
