Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are professional skin treatments that use specialized acid solutions to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. By removing damaged outer layers, they reveal smoother, brighter, and younger-looking skin underneath.

What Can Chemical Peels Treat?

✔ Acne scars & active breakouts
✔ Fine lines & wrinkles
✔ Sun damage & age spots
✔ Uneven skin tone & texture
✔ Dull, tired-looking skin

Types of Chemical Peels

1. Superficial Peels (Light)

  • Depth: Outer skin layer (epidermis)

  • Acids Used: Glycolic, lactic, or salicylic acid

  • Best For: Mild discoloration, rough texture, dullness

  • Downtime: 1–3 days (minimal peeling)

2. Medium Peels

  • Depth: Middle skin layers

  • Acids Used: TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid)

  • Best For: Moderate wrinkles, sunspots, acne scars

  • Downtime: 5–7 days (visible peeling)

3. Deep Peels

  • Depth: Deep dermal layers

  • Acids Used: Phenol

  • Best For: Severe wrinkles, deep scars, sun damage

  • Downtime: 2+ weeks (requires longer recovery)

What to Expect During Treatment

  1. Cleansing – Skin is prepped for the peel.

  2. Application – The chemical solution is brushed onto the skin.

  3. Neutralization – The peel is stopped at the right time.

  4. Soothing – A calming serum or mask is applied.

Treatment Time: 30–60 minutes (depending on peel depth).

Post-Peel Care & Recovery

  • Avoid sun exposure (use SPF 50+ daily).

  • Keep skin hydrated with gentle moisturizers.

  • No picking or scrubbing peeling skin.

  • Skip harsh actives (retinol, scrubs) for 1 week.

Healing Timeline:

  • Light peel: 1–3 days

  • Medium peel: 5–7 days

  • Deep peel: 2+ weeks

Who Should Get a Chemical Peel?

✅ Those with acne scars, wrinkles, or sun damage
✅ People looking for brighter, smoother skin
✅ Anyone wanting a non-surgical refresh

Not Recommended For:
❌ Active skin infections
❌ Very sensitive or rosacea-prone skin
❌ Pregnant/nursing women

Results & Longevity

  • Light peels: Best for maintenance (repeat monthly).

  • Medium peels: Last 3–6 months.

  • Deep peels: Can provide years of improvement.

Pro Tip: Combine with laser treatments or microneedling for enhanced results!

Why Choose a Professional Chemical Peel?

✔ Customized strength for your skin type
