What Are Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels involve applying a solution to the skin that exfoliates the outer layers, promoting the regeneration of new, healthier skin. Depending on the depth of the peel—superficial, medium, or deep—these treatments can address a range of skin issues:
- Superficial Peels: Utilize mild acids like alpha-hydroxy acid to gently exfoliate, improving mild skin discoloration and rough texture.
- Medium Peels: Employ trichloroacetic or glycolic acid to reach the middle layer of skin, effectively treating age spots, fine lines, and moderate discoloration.
- Deep Peels: Use stronger acids to penetrate deeper layers of skin, addressing more severe wrinkles, scars, or precancerous growths.

Side Effects & Risks
Although the percentage of people encountering side effects from Chemical Peels is low, side effects and risks may include:
- Redness: Normal healing from a Chemical Peel involves skin redness with little to no pain. Redness might last for several days after a medium or deep Chemical Peel.
- Scarring: Chemical Peels rarely cause scarring. You can use antibiotics and steroid medications to soften the appearance of these blemishes if they occur.
- Infection and Scarring: Infection can occur with any chemical procedure because the protective outer layer of skin is removed, making the skin more vulnerable to infection.
