Suppose you are hunting for an anti-aging treatment that will help combat deep wrinkles and fine lines. In that case, chemical peels are considered a popular and effective option available at LAK Medspa of Wayzata, Minnesota. However, with the vast amount of information available on the internet, it might be overwhelming and confusing to determine which type of chemical peel is best for your specific needs. To help clear up any confusion, Drs. Lisa Ohman Erhard and Mark Erhard, co-owners of LAK Medspa, have compiled a list of frequently asked questions about the best chemical peels for each situation.
Our team describes the chemical peel as a cosmetic treatment that involves applying an acidic solution to the skin, causing the topmost layers to peel off and revealing smoother, younger-looking skin. This process helps reduce the appearance of unwanted wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and other skin imperfections that can contribute to an aged appearance.
It depends on the severity of your wrinkles and fine lines. A deep chemical peel is recommended for individuals with deep-set wrinkles, severe sun damage, and significant scarring. This peel penetrates deeper into the skin layers to provide more dramatic results. However, this also means more extended downtime and recovery. Drs. Lisa Ohman Erhard and Mark Erhard can evaluate your skin during a consultation visit to determine if a deep chemical peel is necessary for your concerns.
At LAK Medspa, we offer a variety of chemical peels that target fine lines and other signs of aging. Our glycolic acid peels are an excellent option for milder cases, as they help exfoliate the top layers of dead skin cells and stimulate collagen production. For more severe cases, our trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peels are ideal for more severe cases, as they penetrate deeper into the skin and provide more significant results.
Our doctors at LAK Medspa take great care in customizing each treatment to fit our client’s unique needs and concerns. We offer a range of chemical peels that are safe and effective for all skin types, including sensitive skin. During your consultation, we assess your skin type during your consultation and recommend the best peel option.
Whether you benefit from a deep peel or a more superficial treatment, our team can help you make the right decisions for your skin. Call (952) 800-9335 to request an upcoming visit with our providers at 1120 Wayzata Boulevard, Suite #100.
