The holidays can be a stressful (and cold) time of year. Due to that, skincare is of the utmost importance. That’s why treating yourself to a chemical peel or HydraFacial is a must! So, which is best for you? We asked our aesthetician Jamie Popp and here’s what she had to say about the benefits of each:
Chemical Peel
- Safe for all skin types
- Enhances skin tone and texture
- Great for anti-aging (fine lines and wrinkles)
- Minimizes pore size
- Helps with acne
- Penetrates deep into the skin, working underneath the epidermis
- Continues to help the skin even after treatment
- One of the best treatment options for melasma
- Perfect for skin sensitivity to rosacea
- Aside from the face, it can also be used on the neck, chest, and hands
HydraFacial
- Safe for all skin types
- Cleanses deep into the pores
- Offers a milder chemical peel
- Lasting hydration
- Leaves the skin dewy in appearance, with a noticeable glow
- Kills acne bacteria
- Exfoliates by removing dead skin cells
Overall, a HydraFacial is a much more comprehensive and in-depth treatment in comparison to a chemical peel. But, if you are looking to even your skin tone and remove dark spots, a chemical peel may be the better option. If you would like to learn more or to schedule an appointment, contact our office today.
