Chemical peels are great for decreasing hyperpigmentation caused by age, sun, hormonal changes or melasma spots. They help new, healthy skin to emerge by removing the outermost layer revealing a more youthful complexion. Afterwards, you will see significantly fewer fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars and other skin imperfections.

Hyperpigmentation is a common condition that can make some skin parts look darker. ‘Hyper’ means more, and ‘pigment’ implies colour. They appear as brown, black, grey, red or pink spots and patches. They are sometimes called age, sun, or liver spots.
Chemical peels come with various strengths depending on what you need to fix. A topical chemical solution is applied to the skin, which peels away, leaving a brighter and clearer-looking tone. After a light treatment to improve skin tone and texture and reduce fine lines, the skin gently and slowly peels off. For the best facial treatment in Dubai, a medium chemical peel is advised for a smoother skin texture. You may need more than one treatment for light and medium peels to get the desired results. With a more extended recovery period, deep chemical peels resurface the skin based on the seriousness of the problem to be addressed.
The best facial clinic in Dubai offers a variety of treatments which will be agreed upon with your consultant before proceeding.
Please avoid the following activities five to seven days before your treatment:
Chemical peels differ in the depth of skin penetration. Light peels are great for exfoliating. For more significant changes, you will need a deeper peel. There are so many choices that it is best to consult a professional to understand what will work best for you.
Glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and TCA are further typical chemical peels. Glycolic acid is an Alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that safely and effectively reduces hyperpigmentation. Compared to other AHA peels, it is gentle and doesn’t cause as many adverse effects. Salicylic acid, a BHA or beta-hydroxy acid, effectively cures dark spots. It is risk-free, moderate, and has few adverse side effects. Medium or deep peels using trichloroacetic TCA acid are beneficial for treating hyperpigmentation. This acid is appropriate for deeper melanin concentrations since it can penetrate the skin more deeply than other chemical peels.
