## Chemical Peels for Smoother, More Even-Toned Skin

Chemical peels use carefully formulated solutions to exfoliate the skin and improve its texture, tone and appearance. At Skintisfaction, our dermatologists select treatments based on your skin concerns, skin type and individual needs.

Whether you’re addressing uneven pigmentation, acne marks, fine lines, or rough skin texture, we tailor your treatment plan to your concerns and desired results.

## Benefits of Chemical Peels at Skintisfaction

**Improved Skin Texture and Tone**
Reduce roughness and uneven pigmentation for a smoother, more uniform complexion.

**Acne and Acne Scar Treatment**
Selected peels may help manage acne and improve the appearance of post-inflammatory marks and superficial scarring.

**Sun Damage Correction**
Address selected concerns associated with sun exposure, including uneven tone and pigmentation.

**Fine Line Reduction**
Certain peels can soften the appearance of fine lines and improve overall skin texture.

**Brighter Complexion**
Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, leaving skin looking fresher and more radiant.

## Types of Chemical Peels We Offer

The appropriate peel depends on your skin concerns, the depth of treatment required and your tolerance for downtime.

**Light Peels (Superficial)**
Gently exfoliate the outermost skin layer to improve mild imperfections, uneven tone and dullness, usually with minimal downtime.

**Medium Peels**
Target selected concerns such as pigmentation, fine lines and moderate sun damage. Recovery time varies with the peel used.

**Deep Peels**
Address selected deeper skin concerns and more pronounced damage. These treatments require careful assessment and a longer recovery period.

**Customised Peels**
Your dermatologist selects an appropriate formulation and treatment approach based on your skin type, concerns and treatment goals.
