Glycolic Peel

A glycolic peel is a chemical exfoliation treatment that refreshes the skin by removing dead surface cells. Over time, it supports collagen production, softens fine lines, and improves overall skin texture. By keeping pores free of buildup, it is especially helpful for skin prone to blackheads, whiteheads, and acne.

Glycolic Peel Treatment: Step-by-Step Procedure

A glycolic peel is performed through a carefully structured process to ensure safety and effective results:

Skin Assessment
The dermatologist evaluates your skin type, concerns, and medical history to determine suitability.

Peel Selection
Based on your skin’s condition, the appropriate concentration of glycolic acid is chosen.

Deep Cleansing
The skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove makeup, oil, and impurities, allowing even penetration of the peel.

Glycolic Peel Application
The glycolic acid solution is carefully applied for a controlled period, avoiding sensitive areas such as the eyes and lips.

Neutralisation
The peel is neutralised at the right time, followed by gentle cleansing to stop the chemical action.

Post-Treatment Protection
Soothing products and sunscreen are applied to calm, nourish, and protect the skin.

Recommended Frequency

Once every 2–3 weeks

Usually 4–6 sessions, spaced appropriately for skin safety
