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
