Medium Chemical Peel

Medium Chemical Peels at Orange County Surgical Specialists is one step deeper than a light chemical peel. Medium-depth chemical peels not only cause exfoliation of the outer skin (epidermis), they also penetrate the top layers of the dermis. In so doing, medium-depth peels set off a chain reaction in the skin to reorganize and make new collagen, adding to the collagen-elastic matrix layer. The new skin is fresher, smoother and somewhat tighter.
