How do chemical peels work?
Chemical peels are used to treat various skin concerns by exfoliating and rejuvenating the skin. During the treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the skin, which works to remove the outer layer of skin. This process helps to reveal fresher, smoother skin underneath and can improve issues like uneven texture, fine lines, and discoloration.
Types of chemical peels
You can choose the type of peeling depending on your skin’s needs and the depth of treatment required. Each peel targets specific concerns and varies in strength.
Light peels
Enzymatic peeling is a great option for those looking to address fine lines and pigmentation issues. These superficial peels gently exfoliate the skin, improving texture and clarity. For acne scarring, the Acne peeling uses salicylic acid to help reduce scars and clear breakouts. Lastly, the Periocular peeling is a light chemical peel that targets the delicate skin around the eyes, improving skin tone.
Medium peels
The TCA Peel is a medium chemical peel that uses trichloroacetic acid to treat deeper skin concerns like scars and sun damage. It penetrates more deeply than light peels, offering noticeable rejuvenation.
Deep Peel
The Phenol peel is the most intensive deep chemical peel, specifically designed to treat deep wrinkles and severe skin damage. It provides dramatic results but also requires more recovery time.
Side Effects of a chemical peels
Although most patients respond well to chemical peels, there are some potential side effects to be aware of. After the treatment, redness is common, followed by a stinging sensation as the skin begins to heal. Peels may cause dryness or flaking, especially with deeper peels, which can require a longer recovery period.
Certain skin conditions may increase the risk of side effects, so it’s important to consult with a professional before undergoing the treatment. Proper aftercare can help minimize these effects and ensure smooth recovery.

Frequently asked questions about the different types of chemical peels
How long does it take to see results after a chemical peel?
The time it takes to see results after a chemical peel can vary, but generally, you may notice improvements in the appearance of your skin within a few days to a week. Light peels typically reveal fresher skin more quickly, while deeper peels may take longer due to the healing process. The full effect of the peel becomes visible as the skin regenerates over the following weeks.
Can I combine chemical peels with other treatments?
Chemical peels can be combined with other treatments to enhance results. For instance, Dermaplaning is often performed before a peel to remove skin cells from the epidermis, allowing the chemical solution to penetrate deeper. Combining a chemical peel with Dermapen microneedling can further improve the appearance of fine lines and scars. Additionally, pairing a peel with a deep cleansing facial can help reduce impurities and prepare the skin for better absorption of nutrients.
Can it be done at any time of the year?
While chemical peels can be done year-round, it may be best to avoid them during periods of strong sun exposure. After a peel, skin is temporarily more sensitive to UV rays, increasing the risk of sunburn. Winter or early spring are generally recommended times, but with proper post-treatment care, such as sunscreen use, you can safely have peels in any season.
How often should I get a chemical peel?
The frequency of chemical peels depends on the type of peel and your skin’s needs. Lighter peels can be done every 4 to 6 weeks, while medium or deep peels require more time between sessions. It’s essential to follow the instructions provided by your skincare specialist to ensure optimal results and avoid over-exfoliating your skin.
