Skin Rejuvenation
Chemical peels use selected chemical agents to exfoliate the skin at a controlled depth. The formulation and strength should be chosen according to the skin concern and clinical suitability.
People concerned about chemical peels may consider a dermatology consultation when the concern is persistent, changing, uncomfortable or affecting confidence. Suitability for any treatment depends on individual assessment.
Assessment considers the concern, relevant history, skin or hair characteristics, previous care, goals and medical suitability before options are discussed.
Our approach
Peels may be considered for selected concerns such as uneven tone, texture or acne-related issues. The expected peeling, recovery and number of sessions depend on the formulation and individual response.
Your appointment begins with a consultation and assessment. Dr. Shreedha Khatavkar will discuss the concern, relevant history, suitable options and realistic expectations. If treatment is appropriate, you will receive guidance on the proposed plan and follow-up.
Recovery, downtime and aftercare vary according to the treatment selected and individual response. Specific guidance is provided after assessment and should be followed carefully.
Results
Results vary between individuals. Where genuine patient photographs are available and appropriate consent has been obtained, the website may display treatment journeys and follow-up images. No artificial before-and-after imagery is used. Photographs are not a guarantee of future outcomes.
Frequently asked questions
Chemical peels can be used in Indian skin when the peel, concentration, preparation and aftercare are appropriately selected. Because some skin types have a higher risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation, professional assessment and conservative treatment selection are important.
Peeling varies with the type and strength of the peel and your individual skin response. Some peels cause little visible peeling, while others may produce more noticeable dryness or shedding. Your clinician will explain what to expect for the selected peel.
The interval depends on the type of peel, your skin condition, the strength used and how your skin has recovered. A dermatologist should determine the appropriate schedule rather than following a fixed interval for everyone.
Avoid unnecessary sun exposure, picking or peeling the skin, and irritating products until the skin has recovered. Follow the specific aftercare instructions provided by the clinic, including recommended sun protection and skincare.
Suitability depends on the individual's skin and medical history. Active skin infections, significant irritation or certain medications and skin conditions may make a peel unsuitable or require postponement. A consultation is needed before treatment.
