Cosmetic and Health Benefits of Blue Peel

Blue peel can be used as a rejuvenating cosmetic procedure that will eliminate age spots, acne and will also give you tighter skin. The blue chemical peel will remove the superficial dead and damaged skin cells and will also work on deeper skin levels to revitalize your skin. There are a lot of cosmetic benefits of getting a blue peel.

Erases Sun Spots

Age and sun spots occur on the surface of the skin, predominantly on the face, cleavage, shoulders or arms. These sun spots can make you look much older and eliminating them can change the appearance of your skin. The blue peel treatment can be applied on these age and sun spots and give great and durable results. To eliminate the occurrence of new sun spots, you should always remember to wear sunscreen and protect your skin from the harmful sun radiations. 

Diminishes Acne and Scars

The look of acne can be successfully diminished through a blue peel treatment. The solution of 20% trichloracetic acid (TCA) and a bluish ionic base will cause a light depigmentation and will also diminish the appearance of aggressive acne.

Acne can be difficult to be removed or diminished with other solutions and treatments. In some cases, the treatment with blue peel may prevent the occurrence of acne in the future.

The blue peel procedure will also diminish the appearance of scars and make your skin softer.

Tighter Skin

After the procedure, your skin will be tighter. The blue peel solution will stimulate the deeper skin tissues, and some fine lines and wrinkles can be erased through the procedure.

Elastic Skin

The blue peel treatment stimulates the production of collagen and this will result in a tighter skin that has elasticity.

The production of collagen will be stimulated a long time after the treatment, so you will enjoy a younger looking skin for a longer duration.

Homogenous Look

Some cosmetic facial treatments can cause depigmentation in certain areas. Blue peel will work equally in all treated areas and the result is a homogenous look, with even pigmentation.

Improved Skin Texture

Even if you will experience skin flaking for a few days after the procedure, the texture of your skin will be softer, as the dead and the damaged skin cells are removed during the peel.

The duration of a blue peel procedure is between 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the size and the complexity of the treated areas. You may opt to get several areas treated in a session with blue peel solution.

The procedure may be repeated every 4 weeks if the acne or the scars are deep and require several appointments. The solution contains acid and can be uncomfortable, so a local anesthesia will be performed prior to the application of the trichloracetic acid.

The cost of a blue peel is lower than the cost of a deeper skin peel and the results are comparable.
