Chemical peels effectively target active acne, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, melasma, sun spots, and signs of photoaging.

What is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel applies a specialized clinical acid solution to exfoliate the top layers of skin. By removing built-up dead skin cells, the treatment stimulates collagen production and accelerates cellular renewal to dramatically improve skin texture, clarity, and tone.

Types of Chemical Peels

We customize peel depth and acid formulations (including Salicylic, Glycolic, Lactic, and TCA) based on your specific skin type, concerns, and Fitzpatrick tone:

  • Superficial (Light) Peels: Mild alpha/beta-hydroxy acids (AHAs/BHAs) target dull skin, minor breakouts, and light discoloration with little to no downtime.

  • Medium-Depth Peels: Stronger solutions like Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) target stubborn hyperpigmentation, fine lines, sun damage, and moderate acne scars.

  • Deep Peels: High-concentration TCA and specialized formulations address deeper wrinkles, severe texture irregularities, and advanced sun damage.

Benefits of Chemical Peels

  • Refines Skin Texture & Tone: Smooths rough patches, tightens enlarged pores, and leaves skin soft and glowing.

  • Fades Dark Spots & Hyperpigmentation: Lightens sun spots, age spots, post-acne marks, and stubborn melasma.

  • Clears Active Acne & Softens Scars: Unclogs congested pores, reduces excess oil production, and softens shallow acne scarring.

  • Stimulates Collagen Production: Reduces fine lines and early wrinkles while improving firmness over time.

  • Versatile Treatment Areas: Safe and effective for the face, neck, chest, back, and hands.

What to Expect During the Procedure

  1. Deep Cleansing & Prep: Skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove surface oils and prep for uniform peel absorption.

  2. Custom Solution Application: A tailored chemical peel solution is applied evenly across the treatment area. You may feel a warm, tingling sensation as the peel activates.

  3. Neutralization & Protection: The solution is neutralized or set, followed by soothing post-peel hydration and broad-spectrum SPF.

  4. Natural Exfoliation Process: Over 3 to 7 days post-treatment, light flaking or peeling occurs as fresh, healthy skin emerges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How many chemical peel sessions will I need?

While skin looks brighter after just one session, optimal results for acne, hyperpigmentation, or fine lines typically require a series of 3 to 6 sessions spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart.

Are chemical peels safe for dark skin tones?

Yes! When formulated correctly, chemical peels are safe for medium-to-deep skin tones. We use specialized solutions (such as Salicylic, Lactic, and mild TCA blends) engineered to address pigment without triggering post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).

Is there downtime after a chemical peel?

Light peels have no downtime—you may experience minor redness and light flaking for 1 to 3 days. Medium peels usually involve noticeable flaking or peeling for 5 to 7 days.
