What is Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a professional exfoliation treatment that applies a carefully formulated acid solution to the skin. The peel loosens dead skin cells and triggers a controlled shedding process, revealing fresher, smoother skin underneath. Peels range from light and superficial to medium depth, allowing customization for different concerns and skin types.
How It Works
Your provider cleanses and preps the skin, then applies a peel solution containing ingredients like glycolic, salicylic, lactic, or trichloroacetic acid (TCA). The solution breaks down the bonds between dead skin cells and stimulates cell turnover. As the old layer sheds over several days, new skin emerges that looks brighter, more even, and refined.
Ideal Candidates
Chemical peels are ideal for people dealing with dullness, acne, uneven tone, sun damage, and fine lines. Most skin types can benefit from a light or medium peel when performed by a trained professional. Those with active infections, very sensitive skin, or recent isotretinoin use may need alternative treatments or a waiting period.
