A Comprehensive Guide To Chemical Peels

At Aesthetic Dose, we're dedicated to helping you achieve the glowing, healthy-looking skin you deserve. One of our most popular treatments is the chemical peel, a non-invasive, customizable solution for a range of skin concerns. But how often should you get a chemical peel, and what's behind the science of this transformative treatment?


The Science of Chemical Peels

A chemical peel is a solution applied to the skin to remove the top layers and stimulate collagen production. The active ingredients in the peel, such as alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), penetrate the skin to:

  • Exfoliate dead skin cells and unclog pores
  • Stimulate collagen production to improve skin elasticity
  • Reduce melanin production to minimize hyperpigmentation


How Often Should You Get a Chemical Peel?

The frequency of chemical peels depends on your skin type, concerns, and goals. For optimal results, we recommend:

  • Maintenance peels: Every 4-6 weeks to maintain healthy, glowing skin
  • Corrective peels: Every 2-3 weeks to address specific skin concerns like acne or hyperpigmentation
  • Deep peels: Every 6-12 months for more intense skin rejuvenation


Are Chemical Peels Safe for All Skin Types?

Chemical peels are generally safe for most skin types, but it's essential to choose the right peel for your skin. Our experienced aestheticians will help you select a peel that suits your skin type and concerns.

  • Sensitive skin: Gentle, superficial peels are best for sensitive skin
  • Normal to combination skin: Medium-depth peels are suitable for most skin types
  • Dry or mature skin: Moisturizing peels can help hydrate and nourish the skin


What Conditions Does a Chemical Peel Improve?

Chemical peels are effective in addressing a range of skin concerns, including:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles: Stimulating collagen production to improve skin elasticity
  • Hyperpigmentation: Reducing melanin production to minimize age spots and sun damage
  • Acne and acne scarring: Unclogging pores and reducing inflammation
  • Dull, uneven skin tone: Exfoliating dead skin cells and revealing brighter skin
  • Keratosis pilaris: Smoothing rough skin texture
