A chemical peel is a cosmetic skin treatment that uses a controlled solution to remove the outer layers of dead skin. It promotes cell turnover, revealing smoother, brighter skin and improving texture and tone. Common benefits include reduction of fine lines, acne scars, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, and enlarged pores.
Treatment types:
Superficial peels: mild acids (like glycolic or salicylic) for light exfoliation and maintenance.
Medium peels: stronger acids (like trichloroacetic acid) to treat deeper lines, uneven pigmentation, and moderate sun damage.
Deep peels: potent solutions for significant skin resurfacing; require longer recovery and are done less frequently.
