what is a chemical peel and
How Does it Work?
A chemical peel is a skin-resurfacing treatment. It uses active acids like glycolic acid, salicylic acid, or trichloroacetic acid(TCA) to exfoliate the outer layer of skin(epidermis). This controlled injury triggers regeneration and increases skin cell turnover.
As old cells shed, newer and healthier skin emerges. The peel also improves collagen production and refines skin texture. Based on depth, peels can be superficial, medium, or deep. Your treatment is tailored to meet your skin’s needs and your desired outcome.
Chemical peels employ a blend of acids to exfoliate the skin’s surface, removing dead cells and revealing smoother, more radiant skin beneath. They are effective in addressing various skin issues, including acne, hyperpigmentation, and signs of aging, such as wrinkles and fine lines.

Medium Depth Peels
These peels penetrate deeper into the epidermis. TCA(trichloroacetic acid) is used to treat moderate pigmentation issues, age spots, and early acne scars.
