A chemical peel involves the application of a chemical solution to the skin in a clinical setting to achieve the desired effect by exfoliating the top layers of the skin.
The depth of peeling depends on the condition being treated. After the procedure, the skin typically regenerates within a few days, as new cells develop from the deeper layers of the epidermis or from undamaged hair follicles.
It is an effective treatment for skin rejuvenation and improving overall skin texture. It also helps reduce pigmentation, acne, and acne scars.
Downtime varies depending on the type of peel—ranging from a few hours to up to 5–7 days in some cases. The risk of complications is minimal when proper aftercare and medical advice are followed.
