FAQs
What is the best chemical peel for hyperpigmentation?
The best chemical peel for hyperpigmentation depends on your skin type and severity. VI Peel and glycolic chemical peels are among the most effective options because they target excess melanin, improve skin tone, and reduce dark spots over time. A consultation helps determine the safest and most effective treatment for your skin.
How long does a chemical peel take to work?
Most patients begin to see visible improvements within 7–10 days, once the skin completes its initial peeling cycle. Full results—such as smoother texture and brighter tone—continue to develop over the following weeks as collagen production increases.
Is there downtime after a chemical peel?
Downtime depends on the type of peel:
- Light chemical peels: little to no downtime, mild flaking
- Medium peels (like VI Peel): 3–7 days of visible peeling
- Deeper peels: longer recovery with more noticeable peeling
The right level is recommended based on your goals and lifestyle.
How often should I get a chemical peel?
Most people benefit from a chemical peel every 4–6 weeks. For concerns like acne, hyperpigmentation, or melasma, a series of treatments may be recommended to achieve optimal results.
