People of all ethnic backgrounds can enjoy the benefits of a chemical peel so long as they are under the care of a qualified professional who knows how to select the right peel for the right patient.

The procedure usually takes no more than 20 minutes. After cleansing the face, or other areas to be treated, a peeling agent is applied. Depending on which agent is used, it may be washed off or left on the skin. The chemical peeling process usually begins 1-3 days after the procedure and is completed in 5-7 days.
