VI Chemical Peels In Rockville, MD

Professional Estheticians use the Fitzpatrick classification scale to determine the correct strength and type of CHEMICAL PEELS to be used.

The Fitzpatrick Scale or Fitzpatrick skin typing test according to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, is a numerical classification for the color of skin. It was developed in 1975 by Thomas B. Fitzpatrick, a Harvard dermatologist, as a way to classify the response of different types of skin to ultraviolet (UV) light. It remains a recognized tool for dermatologic research into the color of skin.
The Fitzpatrick Scale used by Dermatologists and Estheticians is:
• Type I (scores 0–6) Pale white; blond or red hair; blue eyes; freckles — Always burns, never tans
• Type II (scores 7–13) White; fair; blond or red hair; blue, green or hazel eyes — Usually burns, tans minimally
• Type III (scores 14–20) Cream white; fair with any hair or eye color; quite common — Sometimes mild burn, tans uniformly
• Type IV (scores 21–27) Moderate brown; typical Mediterranean skin tone — Rarely burns, always tans well
• Type V (scores 28–34) Dark brown; Middle Eastern skin types — Very rarely burns, tans very easily
• Type VI (scores 35+) Deeply pigmented dark brown to black — Never burns, tans very easily
