Description

Table of Contents

Chemical peel at different strengths The use of a glycolic solution (NeoStrata®) in aesthetic facial procedures, is the the application of a rejuvinating solution that causes the older, outer layers of the skin to loosen and eventually peel off. The newer, inner layers of regenerated skin is smoother and less wrinkled than the older skin.

When we are young, our skin is soft, smooth, supple, and relatively thin. As age catches up, the skin thickens with the older, outer layers contributing to wrinkles & fine lines, hyperpigmentation, clogged pores and the resulting acne & acne-scarring.

The application of a fruit acid, like the alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) used in the NeoStrata® skin rejuvination system (SRS), allows a physician to selectively remove these aged layers of skin, resulting in fewer wrinkles & fine lines, reduced pigmentation, unclogging of pores and thus less likelyhood of developing acne, and reduction in the prominance of acne-scarring.

After the peel, the inner layers of skin remaining will regenerate, giving one the youthful looking glow of rejuvinated skin.

Neostrata® glycolic acid chemical peel strengths available are 20%, 35%, 50%, and 70%

Chemical peel cost with Neostrata® for any strength is SG$95/= per session. (inclusive of consultation)
