What is a chemical peel?

A chemical skin peel, also known as a chemical peel or derma peeling, is a cosmetic procedure used to improve the appearance and texture of the skin. It involves the application of a chemical solution to the skin's surface, which causes the top layers of the skin to peel away, revealing newer, healthier skin underneath. Chemical peels can be used to treat various skin issues, including:

  1. Fine lines and wrinkles: Chemical peels can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production and promoting skin regeneration.

  2. Uneven skin tone: They can improve skin tone and texture, reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation (such as age spots and sun damage), acne scars, and melasma (dark patches on the skin).

  3. Acne and acne scars: Chemical peels can be effective in treating active acne and reducing the visibility of acne scars by exfoliating the damaged skin layers.

  4. Dull or rough skin: Peels can give the skin a more youthful and radiant appearance by removing dead skin cells and promoting cell turnover.

  5. Sun damage: They can help reverse some of the effects of sun exposure, such as sunspots and uneven skin tone.
