Chemical Peel: Benefits, Safety & Aftercare
A chemical peel is a controlled skin-resurfacing treatment selected according to the concern, skin type and treatment depth. It may be considered for acne, post-acne marks, uneven tone, dullness, texture or selected pigmentation concerns.
What should you know before treatment?
- The peel solution and strength should be selected after a skin assessment.
- Mild warmth, tingling, dryness or temporary flaking can occur depending on the peel depth.
- Sun protection and a gentle post-procedure routine are essential for recovery.
- Active irritation, infection or certain medicines may change when treatment can be performed.
Important: Deeper or stronger does not automatically mean better. A suitable protocol and correct intervals matter more than chasing instant peeling.
