Chemical Peels

What are Chemical Peels?

Chemical Peels are professional skin-resurfacing treatments that use controlled chemical solutions to exfoliate the skin, improve texture, and treat various skin concerns.
They work by removing damaged outer layers of skin to stimulate cell renewal and healthier skin regeneration.

How Do They Work?

Chemical peels apply active acids to the skin that dissolve dead skin cells and trigger controlled exfoliation.
This process encourages faster skin turnover and improves overall skin quality over time.

Types of Chemical Peels:

1. Light (Superficial) Peels
  • Work on the outer layer of the skin
  • Minimal downtime
  • Focus: glow, mild acne, dullness
2. Medium Peels
  • Reach deeper into the epidermis
  • Treat pigmentation, acne scars, and texture
3. Deep Peels
  • Intensive resurfacing (medical-grade)
  • Treat deeper wrinkles and severe damage
  • Require downtime and strict aftercare
