Stain and Peeling Applications

Stain and peeling treatments, such as chemical peels, gently exfoliate the skin to remove dead cells and stimulate new cell growth. These procedures help reduce hyperpigmentation, melasma, acne scars, and sunspots while improving skin tone and texture. By using acids like glycolic, salicylic, or
TCA, the skin becomes brighter, smoother, and more even. Sessions typically last 20–40 minutes with minimal downtime, and a series of treatments may be recommended for optimal results. Sun protection after the procedure is essential to maintain the benefits.

Ideal Candidates

• Those with uneven skin tone or age spots
• Individuals wanting a smoother, clearer complexion

Not Suitable For​

• Sensitive or very dry skin types
• Individuals on certain medications (e.g., isotretinoin)

Recovery Timeline

• Day 1–3: Peeling or flaking may occur
• Week 1: New skin becomes visible
• 2–3 Weeks: Final results

Q & A
Chemical peels and stain treatments help with pigmentation issues, sun damage, acne scars, fine lines, and uneven skin tone.
Yes, depending on the depth of the peel, light flaking to noticeable peeling may occur for a few days as the skin renews itself.
You may feel mild tingling or warmth during the procedure, but most peels are well-tolerated. Stronger peels may require post-care soothing products.
Light peels have no downtime, while deeper treatments may require 3–7 days of recovery with some redness and peeling.
Most patients see brighter, smoother skin within a week. For deeper concerns, a series of treatments may be recommended for optimal results.
It’s essential to avoid direct sun exposure after a peel and use high-SPF sunscreen to protect the new skin and prevent hyperpigmentation.
Most chemical peels are safe for many skin types, but those with darker skin tones or sensitive skin should be evaluated carefully to avoid complications like post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Depending on the type and depth of the peel, treatments can typically be done every 2 to 6 weeks. Your specialist will recommend the best schedule for your skin needs.
Light makeup can usually be worn 24 hours after a superficial peel. For deeper peels, it’s best to wait until the skin has fully healed.
