At Svaasth Skin and Hair Clinic, we often recommend chemical peels as a safe, non-invasive, and highly effective way to treat a variety of skin concerns. Whether you’re dealing with acne, pigmentation, dullness, or early signs of aging, a chemical peel could be the skin-refreshing solution you’ve been looking for.
To help you make an informed decision, here are answers to the most frequently asked questions about chemical peels.
1. What is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a dermatological procedure that uses a specially formulated chemical solution to exfoliate the top layers of your skin. The old, damaged skin peels off, revealing fresher, smoother, and more even-toned skin underneath.
2. What Skin Concerns Can Chemical Peels Treat?
Chemical peels can address a wide range of skin issues, including:
- Acne and acne scars
- Hyperpigmentation and melasma
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sun damage and age spots
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Enlarged pores

- Tailored to your skin type and condition
- Conducted in a clinical, hygienic setting
We carefully assess your skin before recommending a peel to ensure maximum results with minimal risks.
5. How Long Does the Procedure Take?
Most chemical peel sessions take around 20–30 minutes, making it a great lunchtime procedure. You can return to your daily activities right after mild peels, though you may experience slight redness or flaking for a few days.
6. Will My Skin Actually Peel?
Not always!
Some peels cause visible peeling, while others work on a cellular level without obvious shedding. Peeling may vary based on the type of peel used, your skin condition, and the depth of the peel.
7. How Many Sessions Will I Need?
While some people notice visible improvement after just one session, a series of 4–6 treatments spaced 2–4 weeks apart often delivers the best results. Your dermatologist will create a custom treatment plan based on your goals.
8. What Should I Do Before a Chemical Peel?
Before your peel:
- Avoid retinoids, exfoliants, and waxing for at least 5 days
- Limit sun exposure for a week prior
- Let your provider know if you’re taking any medications or have cold sores
A patch test may be done before your first peel to check for any sensitivity.
9. What is the Aftercare Like?
Post-peel care is essential for optimal results:
- Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer
- Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) daily
- Avoid sun exposure, heat, sweating, and makeup for 24–48 hours
- Do NOT pick or peel flaking skin—let it shed naturally
Your dermatologist will provide a detailed post-care guide.
10. Are There Any Side Effects?
Side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as:
- Redness
- Flaking or dryness
- Tingling or tightness
Rare risks include hyperpigmentation or sensitivity, especially if post-care instructions are not followed properly.
11. Can All Skin Types Get Chemical Peels?
Yes—but with care.
At Svaasth Skin and Hair Clinic, we customize peels for all skin types, including sensitive and darker skin tones. We take extra precautions to avoid post-inflammatory pigmentation and choose peel strengths accordingly.
12. Who Should Avoid Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels may not be suitable if you:
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have active skin infections or open wounds
- Are on certain acne medications like isotretinoin
- Have a history of keloids or poor wound healing
Always consult a dermatologist before undergoing a peel.
13. What’s the Difference Between At-Home Peels and In-Clinic Peels?
