Chemical peels are treatments that work at different levels of your skin, each with its own recovery time. Planning a chemical peel? Understand the ingredients involved with our Label Looker.
Light Peels: Made with gentle acids like glycolic or lactic acid, they’re often called "lunchtime peels" because they’re quick and have minimal downtime. You might see a bit of redness and some light flaking for a day or two, but it’s easy to cover up with makeup and carry on with your day.

Medium Peels: These go deeper and need more time to heal. Expect noticeable peeling, redness, and tight skin for about 5-7 days. These are best planned before a weekend or a break since the peeling process is more visible and harder to hide.
A dermatologist will assess your skin type, past reactions, and the products you're using to make sure a chemical peel is safe and effective for you.
Aftercare: After your peel, proper moisturizing and consistent sunscreen application are crucial to protect your skin and achieve the best results.
