A glycolic peel itself, on the other hand, takes about 10 minutes to complete although it is often performed in conjunction with other procedures such as a facial. Peel treatments are delivered every 3 to 4 weeks for best results.  While you may notice some immediate difference to your skin it may take up to 5 treatments (of either procedure) before a truly notable difference is observed.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Text with Right Image (Delete if Not Needed\/Used!)&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.22.7&#8243; text_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;text_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; text_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;text_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; text_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;text_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; link_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;link_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; link_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;link_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; link_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;link_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; ul_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;ul_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; ul_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;ul_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; ul_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;ul_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; ol_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;ol_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; ol_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;ol_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; ol_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;ol_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; quote_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;quote_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; quote_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;quote_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; quote_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;quote_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;header_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;header_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;header_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_2_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;header_2_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_2_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;header_2_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_2_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;header_2_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_3_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;header_3_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_3_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;header_3_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_3_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;header_3_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_4_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;header_4_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_4_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;header_4_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_4_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;header_4_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_5_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;header_5_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_5_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;header_5_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_5_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;header_5_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_6_text_shadow_horizontal_length=&#8221;header_6_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_6_text_shadow_vertical_length=&#8221;header_6_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; header_6_text_shadow_blur_strength=&#8221;header_6_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93&#8243; z_index_tablet=&#8221;500&#8243; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/yourskinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/facial-woman-rest-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"facial-women-resting\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-3006\" style=\"padding:15px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yourskinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/facial-woman-rest-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/yourskinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/facial-woman-rest-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/yourskinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/facial-woman-rest-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/yourskinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/facial-woman-rest-1080x1620.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/yourskinonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/facial-woman-rest.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Why not have the best of both worlds?<\/h2>\n<p>If comparing microdermabrasion and glycolic peels seems like too much hard work, you can always combine the treatments.  Although this is a big decision that you can only make after consulting with a physician or skin care professional, the results may prove to be well worth the effort. The biggest advantage of combining these procedures is that it provides a penetration that is deeper than any treatment can offer on its own. <\/p>\n<p>The skin is typically first exfoliated with the microdermabrasion before the glycolic peel is applied. As the combination of procedures increases the risk of hyperpigmentation, it is generally not advised for individuals with darker skin tones.<\/p>\n<p>Both microdermabrasion and glycolic peels can be used with great effect. Even if you are familiar with your own skin type it is best to always seek out professional advice before making use of any skin care treatments, regardless of how safe they appear to be.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_0 et_pb_row_empty\"><\/div>\n<p> Every time we open our social media feeds, we are bombarded with a plethora of photos depicting the flawless complexions of models and celebs such as Miranda Kerr, Rihanna, and Katy Perry.
