Chemical Peel for Spider Veins and Large Pores?

December 29, 2009
Asked By:trudy123 in wa

I am 45 and don't have much in the wrinkle department, thanks to genetics and hating to be in the sun. My biggest facial problems are large pores and a few spider veins on my cheeks. Would a Chemical Peel help? The only facial skin moisturizer I use is the Gold Bond Ultimate healing body lotion during the day and night I use the same lotion but use the new Gold Bond intense treatment on top. Works great and you can't beat the price. I just need a good exfoliator. Any suggestions? Some have just a simple washcloth.
