Chemical peel is one of the popular cosmetic dermatology treatments for facial rejuvenation. During the initial consultation, the treatment provider will educate the patient about various aspects of the procedure, and may also present chemical peel before and after photographs.
The first goal of the dermatologist will be to ensure that the patient has a clear understanding of what chemical peels can or cannot do, and then make an appropriate choice. Board certified dermatologists Dr. Tri H. Nguyen and Dr. George Hughes III provide chemical peels to patients in Houston, Katy, Spring, The Woodlands, Texas, and surrounding communities across the landscape.
What are Chemical Peel Before and After Images?
Before and after images in case of chemical peels refer to a set of pictures pertaining to a previous patient who has received the same dermatology treatment with good results. The set includes images taken prior to the treatment and after the treatment at a stage when the full effects of the peel have been established, and the skin has completely healed.
The treatment provider will ensure the photographs are obtained with the clear consent of the patient and presented before new patients in a discreet manner. As per the standard protocol, the patient’s identity may be kept confidential. The provider’s sole purpose behind this exercise is to use the photos as a visual aid to describe the potential effectiveness of chemical peels to new patients.
This will be mentioned below but the real difference here is digital technology. The cyber world has enabled thousands and thousands of people and even more to see what they are contemplating without making one phone call. Gone are the day of vague picture books and trying to figure this out with some brochure, nothing beats website pictures.
Benefits
If an individual is seeking the chemical peel procedure for the first time, they may be unsure about how it will affect their facial skin and whether the treatment can meet their personal cosmetic goals. Some patients may need only a superficial or medium peel treatment, while some others may require deep peels.
In some cases, the chemical peel treatment may be performed in conjunction with another procedure to meet the patient’s needs. In each case, the patient will be better placed to make the right choices when they have access to chemical peel before and after photos.
Having Reasonable Expectations
Patients should be aware that chemical peel is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure, and the results will be in accordance to the type of the peel treatment chosen. Superficial peels will only provide limited improvement, while deep peels can create quite dramatic results in terms of skin rejuvenation.
When the patient has access to chemical peel before and after photos, they will know clearly what to expect and what not to expect from the procedure. They will also be able to make a more informed choice between superficial, medium and deep peels.
Board certified dermatologists Dr. Nguyen and Dr. Hughes receive patients from Houston, Katy, Spring, The Woodlands, Texas, and nearby areas for chemical peels and various other cosmetic skin care procedures.
Photos on the Web
The dermatologist has an option to provide chemical peel before and after photos on their practice website for convenient access to new patients as mentioned before. To create more awareness, they may also choose to disseminate the photos via social media photo sharing networks.
Virtual technology has allowed people to make critical decisions for chemical peels and so on without bringing anyone else into the picture. Now patients or potential ones can see these pictures at their home or anywhere and know exactly what they are walking into if the sign up since these pictures are so clear. They know how this procedure will look on their body. This undermines so much anxiety for anyone who is about to undergo this procedure which is better for everyone involved.
