A chemical peel is a skin treatment in which a doctor applies a controlled acid solution to remove damaged outer layers of skin. This encourages fresh skin to form and can improve acne, pigmentation, tanning and fine lines. At VK Allure Dermaclinic in Chennai, the peel type and strength are chosen for each person.
Avoid during pregnancy, active skin infection or cold sores, open wounds, sunburn or recent isotretinoin use; people prone to keloids should consult the doctor first.

Yes, when performed by trained professionals, chemical peels are safe and customized according to your skin type and concern.
Mild redness or slight peeling may occur for a few days, depending on the type of peel used.

You may feel mild tingling or warmth during the procedure, but it is generally well-tolerated and comfortable.
Common peels include glycolic, salicylic, lactic, mandelic and combination peels, each suited to different concerns. Salicylic peels suit oily, acne-prone skin, while glycolic and lactic peels help with dullness and pigmentation. Peels also differ in strength. The doctor selects the type and depth after examining your skin.
Yes, when the right peel and strength are chosen. Indian skin can develop temporary dark patches if a peel is too strong or the skin is exposed to sun afterwards. Superficial peels, skin priming and strict sun protection help keep this risk low for most Indian skin types.
Stop scrubs, waxing, threading and retinoid creams a few days before, unless the doctor advises otherwise. Avoid sun tanning. Tell the doctor about medicines, recent acne tablets and any history of cold sores. Some people are given a priming cream to use for a couple of weeks beforehand.
Yes. Peels are often combined with microneedling, laser treatments, medical facials or prescribed creams for acne and pigmentation. The doctor plans the order and spacing so your skin can recover between procedures. Doing too many strong treatments close together can increase irritation and pigmentation risk.
