Chemical Peels
Whether you want to combat signs of aging, reduce acne scars, or even out skin tone, chemical peels can be your answer. These popular, non-invasive options improve skin appearance by exfoliating it. Different chemical peels have unique benefits and applications, yet selecting the right chemical peel for your skin’s needs is the key to optimal results.
What is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a skin treatment that involves applying an acid-based solution to the skin to create controlled damage and exfoliate dead skin cells. By eliminating dead skin cells from the surface, new skin cells emerge on the surface, resulting in smoother and more youthful-looking skin.
Chemical peels can improve skin conditions such as acne scars, sun damage, fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven pigmentation.
There are different types of chemical peels used, each offering a unique depth:
- Superficial (light) peels remove only the outermost layer of skin
- Medium-depth peels penetrate deeper into the layers beneath

Understanding Chemical Peels: How Do They Work?
All chemical peels work by exfoliating away the top layer of skin cells and promoting cell turnover for a fresher and smoother complexion. The treatment also helps increase collagen production.
During the treatment, we apply the chosen chemical peel onto your face or body. The peel’s acids penetrate the different skin layers and cause controlled injury to the targeted area. This jump-starts new collagen production and triggers a process where damaged skin sheds off gradually. As new layers of healthy skin replace the old ones, you’ll notice improvement in texture, pigmentation issues, fine lines, wrinkles, and scars over time.

The Benefits of Chemical Peels: How They Improve Skin Health
Chemical peels offer a range of benefits that can significantly improve skin health, including:
- Smoother skin texture: Chemical peels remove dead skin cells and promote cell turnover, leading to smoother and brighter skin.
- Acne treatment: Chemical peels can help control acne by deeply cleansing the pores and reducing oil production.
- Reduction of hyperpigmentation: Regular chemical peel treatments can fade dark spots caused by sun damage or aging, resulting in more even-toned skin.
- Minimization of scars: With consistent use, chemical peels can minimize the appearance of scars, including those from acne or injury.
- Pelvis: Women and men often experience weakening of the pelvic floor and related issues with age. Specific body contouring treatments can improve quality of life by strengthening the pelvic floor muscles.
Chemical peels are a fantastic long-term solution to enhancing complexion and skin health.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. When done under professional guidance and following proper protocols, chemical peels are generally safe for most people. However, it's essential to consult with an experienced aesthetician or dermatologist who will assess your needs before undergoing any chemical peel procedure.
Expect your skin to peel anywhere from three to seven days before the shedding stops. While you can resume normal activities, avoid anything that may cause excessive sweating, avoid a lot of sun exposure, and use gentle skin products.
It’s very common for no visible peeling to happen. Some peels don't produce visible shedding. Also, the skin cells are tiny, so you may not be able to see them shedding after your peel.
If your skin is extremely sensitive, you’ve recently undergone chemotherapy, radiation, or Accutane treatment, you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, you have vitiligo, or you have a weak immune system, you should not get a chemical peel.
