Chemical Peels
Dr. Lian loves using medical grade chemical peels including the Perfect Derma Peel because she is able to tailor the peel to suit a variety of needs for her patients.
Chemical peels remove layers of the skin, exposing a fresh and rejuvenated layer of skin cells resulting in a glowing complexion.
It is important to go to someone with a good understanding of the various chemicals and skin types so as to avoid any complications.
