Owner of the Laser Institute for Dermatology and European Skin Care in Santa Monica and the Ava MD Medspa in Beverly Hills, Dr. Ava Shamban is a Board Certified Dermatologist with over twenty years of experience treating skin. She was the featured dermatologist on ABC television’s “Extreme Makeover.” While working on the show, she had a limited time to get people looking their best. By using a combination of innovative techniques in an accelerated time frame, she was able to clear acne, rejuvenate aging skin and ease acne scarring in as little as two weeks! Realizing that not everyone was able to have an “Extreme Makeover,” she developed a formula for combination treatments available in both of her offices. With two offices and her skin care line, AVA MD, Dr. Shamban provides her patients with the most sophisticated advances in dermatology, aesthetics and products.
Many people hear the term “chemical peel” and make two wrong assumptions. First, they think this treatment actually peels away the skin. Second, they think that “chemical” means something extremely harsh or even toxic. Neither is true. Chemical peels do not peel away anything; they simply dissolve and exfoliate the uppermost layer of the epidermis, revealing a new layer of rejuvenated skin. And the most commonly used peel solutions today—the alpha-hydroxy (AHA) acid found in citric fruit and the glycolic acid found in sugar cane—are anything but harsh. In fact, you can undergo a chemical peel during your lunch break and return to work that very afternoon without anybody being the wiser. (Although you might get comments about how much “healthier” you look.)
This isn’t to say that anybody can do a chemical peel procedure. As with any procedure involving your skin, you need to be in the hands of a professional. Peels are used to treat a variety of skin conditions—fine lines, age spots and uneven pigmentation, acne and acne scarring—but which peel is right for your very particular skin situation is a decision you should make only with the help of someone experienced and knowledgeable about all the options available. Call today to schedule a skin consultation with a physician. You can safely assume your skin will thank you for it.
