What is it?
A medical peel is a chemical procedure performed by the physician to renew the skin surface in a controlled way. The type and depth of the solution are chosen according to the condition of the skin.
How is it planned?
Skin type, sun exposure and any medication you use are assessed. Skin preparation before and after the procedure may be required.
Procedure and recovery
Redness, a mild burning sensation and subsequent peeling may occur. Recovery time depends on the depth of the peel. Sun protection is important during this period.
Possible risks
Prolonged redness, changes in pigmentation, sensitivity and, rarely, scarring may occur. Risk is higher in unsuitable skin types, which is why assessment is made during an examination.
