Chemical peels are cosmetic treatments used to improve the look and feel of your skin. The procedure involves applying an acidic solution to the face and then removing it after a period of time. This process helps remove dead skin cells and stimulate the production of collagen, resulting in softer, smoother skin with fewer wrinkles and blemishes.
Chemical peels can be used on all areas of the body including the face, neck, chest, hands and feet. They work by weakening the bond between old skin cells that have become damaged or discolored due to aging or environmental factors such as sun exposure. Over time, new skin cells are formed that give the skin a healthier and more youthful appearance.
ZO chemical peels are a professional-grade treatment developed by Dr. Zein Obagi, renowned dermatologist and founder of ZO Skin Health. These peels use innovative formulations with potent ingredients to help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration and other signs of aging. ZO chemical peels can be tailored to address an individual's needs and provide dramatic results with minimal downtime. At Apollo Health, we highly recommend ZO chemical peels for their ability to create smoother, brighter and more youthful-looking skin. Furthermore, these peels can be used in conjunction with other treatments such as laser resurfacing, cosmetic fillers and injectables for truly transformative results.
Some of the many benefits of chemical peels include reduced wrinkles, improved pigmentation, faded acne scars, improved scarring from surgery or injury, firmer skin and decreased pore size. Chemical peels can also be used to treat precancerous and other skin lesions.

The results of a chemical peel vary depending on your individual needs and type of peel used. Generally, lighter peels can provide long-lasting results for up to six months while deeper peels can last up to two years.
As with most treatments, there can be some side effects associated with chemical peels. These may include redness, dryness, flaking and sensitivity to light. However, these side effects are usually minimal and temporary. It’s important to follow the after-care instructions given by us for best results.
