Two of the most popular exfoliation procedures include Microdermabrasion and chemical peels. In order to find out which of the two will suit you the best, it would be sensible to consult a professional. Let us find out what actually is Microdermabrasion and chemical peel.


        What is Microdermabrasion?



One of the most common and widely used physical methods of removing the very superficial layer of the skin is Microdermabrasion.  This process is a manual exfoliation of the skin layer known as the epidermis, in order to remove dead skin cells, debris, and impurities. Generally, an instrument is used to exfoliate the skin, which combines suction and a wand made of diamond or small crystal particles. Instant results could be seen from this procedure. Microdermabrasion is an exfoliation method that promotes collagen stimulation and a more rapid cell turnover in the skin.

        What is a chemical peel?



Another famous and widely applied form of exfoliation is a chemical peel. It is to be noted that this form uses a chemical solution instead of mechanical methods. In this method, an enzyme or alpha hydroxy acid solution is applied to the skin, in order to encourage skin cell turnover. Applying this solution, either dissolves the bonds holding skin cells together or chemically wounds the cells to encourage renewal. The chemical peel is found very effective and its effects could be seen in a few days after treatment, as the skin cells peel away. Chemical peels are used by dermatologists and aestheticians like Dr. Geeta Gera in order to treat a variety of skin conditions which includes acne, acne scarring, rosacea, photo-damaged skin, hyper pigmentation, lines, and wrinkles. This procedure is also beneficial and used by many dermatologists to help resurface the skin for a smoother texture and even tone.


Both chemical peels and microdermabrasion are the most effective and widely preferred form of exfoliation. It is always better to discuss with your doctor when determining what suits you considering your individual case and to help you achieve your rejuvenation and/or skin-improvement goals.
