Unveiling The Beauty Beneath: The Ultimate Guide To What a Chemical Peel Is And Why You Need One!

Renewing your skin by recharging its natural development is the best possible way to say goodbye to dull skin and hello to soft, radiant skin. At Merakki , you can explore the world of chemical peel—a powerful tool for rejuvenating your skin.  

What Is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel, also known as a skin peel or peel facial is involves skin exfoliation (removal of dead cells) by applying a specialized chemical. This solution removes the top layer of skin and by removing damaged skin cells, chemical peels prompt the body to produce new, healthier skin cells.

Why do we need a chemical peel?

Chemical peel stimulates collagen production and helps us regain a firmer and wrinkle free skin.  Collagen is a protein which gives our skin strength, elasticity and firmness. Collagen production decreases with age leading to wrinkles and sagging of skin. Chemical peels help by pumping up collagen production and giving our skin a healthier, younger look.

What to expect during a peel facial?

Our team of skincare professional at Merakki, will first cleanse your skin to remove any makeup, dirt, or oils. We will then apply the chemical peel solution to your face and/or neck area. The duration of the peel application will vary depending on the type of peel used and your skin’s sensitivity.

What are the different types of chemical peels?

There are three main types of chemical peels based on their strength and depth of penetration: 

Superficial peels:

Superficial chemical peels use mild acids like AHA, citric acid, and salicylic acid to gently exfoliate skin, targeting the outer layer. At Merakki,  fruit enzyme peels , phenol light peels,glycolic peel,retises forte peel ,Jessner’s Peel,salicylic acid peel fall under this category.

Our special and latest addition- Mandelic peel ,is also very effective for all skin types and especially for sensitive skin .All these facial peels are effective for refining skin texture, reducing wrinkles, treating acne, scars, pigmentation, and sun damage. Key advantage of these peels is minimal to no downtime.

Medium peels and deep peels:

Medium-depth peels use acids such as trichloroacetic acid (TCA) or glycolic acid. These peels reach both the outer and middle layers of the skin. Deep chemical peels penetrate the middle layer of the skin. They use stronger acids as phenol or trichloroacetic acid, but they have longer recovery time compared to other peels.

 Merakki offers phenol medium peel which efficiently treats deeper wrinkles and scars and TCA peel,which provides deep chemical exfoliation and targets aging signs,pigmentation and acne scars.

Benefits of Chemical Peels

In India, where sun exposure is a important concern, chemical peels offer numerous benefits. They combat sun damage by reducing sunspots and hyperpigmentation, tackle acne and scars effectively. They help in reducing fine lines and wrinkles.  

How long does a chemical peel last?

The duration of chemical peel effects depends on factors like peel type, depth, and skin characteristics. Superficial peels last weeks to months, medium-depth peels last months to a year, and deep peels offer longer results, even years. Skincare, sun protection and lifestyle habits also impact the longevity of results.

Precautions and Aftercare

For a safe and effective chemical peel experience, it’s crucial to consult our professionals ,to assess suitability for the procedure. After the peel, protect your skin from sun exposure with SPF. Use gentle products to cleanse skin, reduce redness, and restore moisture. Attend follow-up appointments for optimal results and to minimize risks. These precautions and aftercare steps are essential for ensuring a successful chemical peel experience.
