How Much Does Chemical Peel Cost In Philippines

Chemical peeling helps to improve the appearance of the skin and face. A chemical solution is applied to the face that causes peeling. This glycolic skin peeling treatment is beneficial in reducing superficial wrinkles, freckles and age spots and mild acne scarring.

There are several options for chemical peeling:

Light peels: A mild acid is used to penetrate the outmost layer of the skin and gently exfoliate it. This treatment is used to improve the appearance of the skin in cases of mild skin discoloration and rough skin.
Medium peels: An acid is used to penetrate the out and middle layers of the skin, removing damaged skin cells. Conditions that would benefit from a medium peel include age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, freckles, and some pre-cancerous skin growths such as actinic keratosis.
Deep peels: An acid is used to penetrate deep into the middle layer of skin. This procedure is helpful to treat age spots, freckles, moderate lines and shallow scars.
VI Body Peels: The first-of-its-kind, non-invasive, and pain-free! VI Body Peel treatments stimulate anti-aging collagen and increase cellular turnover. Target acne, acne-scarring, stretch marks, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation on various parts of the body, to reveal smoother, more radiant skin in just one treatment. For optimal results, we recommend three treatments spaced about 4 weeks apart.

Candidates considering a chemical peel will find it helpful to familiarize themselves with the myriad factors that affect the total cost of this facial rejuvenation procedure.

FACTORS TO CONSIDER IN THE TOTAL COST OF A CHEMICAL PEEL

FACTOR	EXPLANATION
Type of Peel	Superficial vs. Medium vs. Deep
Provider	Training, experience, specialty
Consultation Fees	May or may not count towards the final cost of the procedure
Location	Facility fees vary by region and are typically higher for larger facilities
Recovery Expenses	Special equipment, follow ups, etc.

What are the different types of chemical peels?

Before we start deep diving the numbers, let’s do a quick review of the various types of chemical peels. Peels are labeled according to the depth the chemical solution penetrates into the skin layers (epidermis and dermis). Superficial chemical peels (or light chemical peels) affect the epidermis (top outer layer), medium-depth peels penetrate into the upper layers of the dermis (second layer), and deep peels make their way well into the dermis layer. All peels remove damaged skin cells and promote new growth.

Superficial and medium peels can be done multiple times over an individual’s lifetime, and typically have some minor stinging, swelling, redness, and peeling. Deep peels, meanwhile, are typically only done once. Deeper peels have the most significant results with considerable side effects and downtime. Individuals with active cold sores (herpes), significantly sun damaged skin, or other skin conditions may not be good candidates for a chemical peel.
