Obagi Blue Peel
Brighton & Hove Cosmetic Clinic offers Obagi Blue Peel, an effective skin peel treatment that treats blemishes, scars, wrinkles, un-even skin tone, and sun related skin damage. The treatment is administered by a member of our highly trained medical staff in the clinic. A low level of trichloroacetic acid is mixed with the special blue base that allows the peel to be applied at the correct depth for the level of surface damage. Once the damaged cells are removed the skin replaces them with healthy cell growth and vibrant skin.
Obagi Blue Peel has been approved for use on the hands, chest, neck, back and legs.
These damaged cells are replaced by healthier ones, making the skin look healthier and youthful. The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has approved the use of Obagi Blue Skin Peel to the neck, chest, hands, back, arms, and legs amongst other body parts.
The procedure is a quick and highly tolerable solution to damaged skin. The application process takes only half an hour and leaves a little redness and swelling to the face in some instances. The skin will peel after 2-3 days and will continue to peel over the course of one week.
The healing time is 7-10 days after which time the skin appears renewed and improved. Over the following few months the skin will continue to improve and clear with a generally healthier appearance.
