What is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a dermatologist-performed procedure where a controlled solution is applied to the skin to exfoliate dead cells, improve texture, and reveal fresher, brighter, and smoother skin underneath.

It helps in reducing:

  • Acne and acne marks
  • Pigmentation and tanning
  • Fine lines and dullness
  • Uneven skin tone

Types of Peels

Superficial Peels
  • Gently exfoliate the topmost layer of the skin.
  • Ideal for dullness, mild pigmentation, and acne.
  • Minimal downtime – you can resume work the same day.

Examples: Lactic acid, glycolic acid, mandelic acid peels

Medium Peels
  • Work deeper into the skin targeting pigmentation, acne scars, and sun damage.
  • May cause mild peeling for 2–3 days.
  • Best for uneven skin tone and stubborn pigmentation.

Examples: TCA peel, Yellow peel, Jessner’s peel

Deep Peels
  • Penetrate deeper layers for advanced skin concerns like deep wrinkles or severe pigmentation.
  • Require more downtime and should only be done under dermatologist supervision.


Examples: Phenol peel, advanced TCA formulations
