Skin peels have skyrocketed in popularity for the past 15+ years. Fans of Sex And The City series might remember Samantha having a lunch time peel which resulted in her showing up at Carrie's book launch party with glowing red skin.
Lunch time peels are very popular and consist of the application of an acid composition to "refresh" the skin by allowing the acidic formulation to "eat away" dead skin cells. \
A lunch time peel, which can actually be done at any time of the day, but are called lunch time peels because they are done quickly enough to be squeezed into a lunch hour, are the least invasive of the peels.
There are many types of skin peels available ranging from light, medium to deep surface.
Although peels used to be limited to application at either dermatology or plastic surgery offices, skin care experts often offer various forms of peels during facials without the benefit of a doctor's presence.
Lately, home peel kits have become available over the Internet for all levels of peels from light to deep peels.
