FAQs
How does a chemical peel work to improve skin?
A chemical peel uses formulated organic acids (like Glycolic, Lactic, or Salicylic acid) to dissolve the 'glue' holding dead skin cells together. By removing these damaged surface cells, your skin is forced to generate fresh, clear cells with higher collagen density.
Will my skin visibly peel off after a chemical peel?
Not always! Depending on the peel depth, peeling ranges from subtle microscopic flaking to visible light peeling for 3 to 7 days. Visible peeling is not required to achieve outstanding skin renewal results.
Does getting a chemical peel hurt?
You will feel a warm tingling or light prickling sensation for 3 to 10 minutes while the acid active ingredients are on the skin. A cooling neutralizer and fan are applied immediately after to soothe the skin.
How many chemical peel sessions will I need?
While skin brightness improves after 1 session, a course of 3 to 6 peels spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart is recommended to correct stubborn hyperpigmentation, deep acne scars, and fine wrinkles.
Are chemical peels safe for darker skin tones?
Yes! However, darker skin tones require specialized milder acid formulations (such as Lactic or Mandelic peels) and pre-conditioning to prevent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
