What Is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a professional skincare treatment designed to rejuvenate and resurface your skin. By applying a safe, professionally formulated chemical solution to the skin, the peel gently exfoliates the outermost layer, which is often damaged and dull. This process triggers the skin’s natural healing response, encouraging the growth of new, healthy skin cells. The result is a brighter, smoother, and more even-toned complexion. A chemical peel for pigmentation is a highly effective dark spot removal treatment that targets discoloration caused by sun exposure, acne scars, and other factors.
Concerns Addressed by a Chemical Peel
A professional chemical peel is a versatile and effective dark spot removal treatment that can be customized to correct a wide range of common skin concerns. The treatment is ideal for those looking to improve:
Hyperpigmentation & Dark Spots: A chemical peel for pigmentation is highly effective at reducing the appearance of sun spots, age spots, and other forms of discoloration by safely exfoliating the pigmented top layers of skin.
Acne & Acne Scars: By deeply cleansing pores and accelerating skin cell turnover, a chemical peel helps to reduce active acne and fade the lingering dark marks and scars left behind.
Fine Lines & Wrinkles: The exfoliation process stimulates collagen production, helping to soften the appearance of fine lines and superficial wrinkles for a smoother, more youthful look.
Dull or Uneven Skin Tone: The treatment removes the dead, damaged skin cells that can cause a tired or lackluster complexion, revealing a brighter, more vibrant, and even skin tone.
Rough Skin Texture: A chemical peel visibly refines skin texture, shrinking pores and creating a soft and smooth surface.
Aftercare for Your Chemical Peel
Following a chemical peel, your skin will be in a sensitive, healing state. Proper aftercare is crucial to ensure a smooth recovery, prevent complications, and achieve the beautiful, even-toned results you desire.
Do's
Keep Your Skin Hydrated: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer or serum recommended by your specialist. Hydration is key to a healthy healing process.
Stay Out of the Sun: Sun exposure is your biggest enemy after a peel. Wear a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen daily, and wear a wide-brimmed hat when you’re outdoors.
Use a Gentle Cleanser: For the first few days, wash your face with a mild, non-exfoliating cleanser and lukewarm water.
Drink Plenty of Water: Staying well-hydrated from the inside out helps your skin heal and rejuvenate more quickly.
Dont's
Don’t Pick or Peel Your Skin: This is the most important rule. It is normal for your skin to flake or peel, but you must let this happen naturally. Picking can lead to scarring and a greater risk of infection.
Don’t Use Harsh Products: Avoid using any scrubs, exfoliants, or products with active ingredients like retinol or glycolic acid for at least one week, or as advised by your Laderma specialist.
Don’t Expose Skin to Heat: Avoid hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and strenuous exercise for 48 hours, as excessive heat and sweat can cause swelling and irritation.
Don’t Wear Makeup: If possible, avoid applying makeup for 24-48 hours to let your skin breathe and heal.
