What is Chemical Peel?
Chemical peel is applying a chemical solution to the skin, and it is used to eliminate the top layers of the skin. The skin that regenerates following this procedure tends to be smoother. Multiple sessions may be necessary for desired results with a light or medium peel. Chemical peels address wrinkles, bags, skin discolouration, and scars, often on the facial area. They may be performed alone or in conjunction with other treatments and can vary in depth from light to deep. While deeper chemical peels yield more significant outcomes, the recovery period is also longer.

How Does Chemical
Peel Work?
A chemical peel is a procedure to resurface the skin. Depending on the concerns being addressed, a chemical peel can be light, medium, or deep:
Light chemical peel: This removes the outer layer of skin (epidermis) and is used to address fine wrinkles, acne, uneven skin tone, & dryness. It can be done every 2 to 5 weeks.
Medium chemical peel: This removes skin cells from the epidermis and portions of the upper dermis. It is used to treat wrinkles, acne scars, & uneven skin tone. It could take more than one procedure to get the desired result.
Deep chemical peel: This removes skin cells even deeper. It’s recommended for deeper wrinkles, scars, & precancerous growths. The full effect is achieved without the need for repeat procedures.

Patient Questions About Chemical Peel
Frequently Asked Questions
Is chemical peeling treatment good for the skin?
Chemical peeling can help improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne, scars, uneven skin tone, & other skin imperfections. The type of chemical used decides how deep the peel is and what skin conditions it can treat.
Is chemical peeling painful?
Although they are usually not painful, chemical peels might cause some discomfort. The kind of peel and your tolerance level determine how uncomfortable it will be.
How long do the effects of a chemical peel last?
The results of a chemical peel can last for different periods, depending on how deep the peel is. A light peel usually lasts one to two months, while a medium peel lasts up to six months.
Does a chemical peel have any negative effects?
Yes, like any other treatment, there can be side effects from a chemical peel, such as redness, scabbing, and swelling. After a chemical peel, the treated skin can be red, which is a normal part of the healing process. If you have a medium or deep chemical peel, the redness might last for a few months.
Is the chemical peeling treatment safe?
Yes, it is a safe procedure. Although very uncommon, there is a small risk of infection or scarring from chemical peels. For individuals with certain skin types, there is a chance of experiencing temporary or permanent changes in skin colour, either becoming lighter or darker.
Is 1 chemical peel treatment enough?
Yes! Many people notice a significant improvement in skin tone and texture after just one peel. This is because a peel works as an exfoliant, which can greatly enhance the surface quality of your skin.

“I've been wanting to have upper & lower lid surgery for some years. I have hereditary heavy eyelids, tea troughs & also bags under my eyes. I'm constantly told I'm looking tired!

“I feel that I've found my 'face doctor' and that is as valuable to me as the happiness I feel when I look in the mirror. Thanks too to Abi who was on hand during my recovery.

“By far the best experience I have ever had with a doctor! Mrs Shah Desai is so professional, knowledgable and thorough with her approach and at the same time so kind, warm and friendly.
