Professional Chemical Peels
Doctor-guided chemical peel treatments designed to improve pigmentation, acne, dullness, uneven texture and signs of photo-damage using carefully selected professional peel formulations based on your skin type and tolerance.
About Professional Chemical Peels
““Controlled exfoliation, selected for your skin and concern.””
Professional Chemical Peels at KAC
Chemical peels are professional exfoliation treatments used to improve a range of skin concerns by encouraging controlled shedding of damaged surface cells and supporting healthier skin renewal.
At Karthika’s Aesthetic Centre, we do not use the same peel for every client. The peel is selected according to your skin type, pigmentation pattern, acne tendency, sensitivity, texture and treatment goal.
Depending on your concern, professional peel protocols may be used for dullness, tanning, superficial pigmentation, post-acne marks, oily skin, clogged pores, acne-prone skin, uneven texture and early signs of ageing.
Different peel formulations work at different strengths and depths, so correct selection is important—especially for Indian skin, where overly aggressive treatment may increase irritation or post-inflammatory pigmentation.
Our focus is on controlled correction, skin safety and gradual improvement rather than excessive peeling or unnecessary downtime.
Treatment Procedures and Details
Choosing the Right Peel
Before treatment, we assess your skin to determine which peel type and strength are appropriate.
We evaluate:
• Skin type & sensitivity
To reduce the risk of irritation and choose the appropriate strength.
• Pigmentation pattern
Melasma, tanning, superficial pigmentation and post-acne marks require different approaches.
• Acne & oiliness
Oily, congested and acne-prone skin may benefit from specific peel formulations.
• Skin texture
Roughness, dead-cell buildup and uneven texture may respond to controlled exfoliation.
• Previous treatments & home care
Recent procedures, retinoids and active skincare products are considered before treatment.
Based on this assessment, the peel type, concentration and treatment interval are personalised.
Peel Selected for Your Skin
The formulation and strength are chosen according to your skin type, concern and tolerance.
Controlled Exfoliation
Professional peel protocols are designed to renew the skin without unnecessary aggression.
Multi-Concern Treatment
Peels may help improve acne, pigmentation, dullness, texture and uneven tone.
Indian Skin Focused
Treatment intensity is carefully adjusted to minimise irritation and post-inflammatory pigmentation risk.
What Happens During Treatment
The skin is first cleansed and prepared before the selected peel solution is applied in a controlled manner.
Depending on the formulation, the peel may remain on the skin for a specific period or be neutralised according to the treatment protocol.
At KAC, professional peels may include brightening peels, Vitamin C-based peels, acne-control peels, pigmentation-focused peels, exfoliating acid peels and advanced combination peel protocols where appropriate.
After treatment, soothing, hydrating and barrier-support products are applied.
Some peels produce little or no visible peeling, while stronger formulations may cause mild dryness, flaking or temporary sensitivity.
For many skin concerns, the best improvement comes from a series of treatments rather than a single session.
Daily sunscreen and appropriate post-treatment skincare are essential for protecting the skin and maintaining results.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my skin peel visibly after treatment? Not always. Some professional peels work without obvious flaking. Visible peeling depends on the type and strength of the formulation used. Are chemical peels suitable for Indian skin? Yes, when selected carefully according to skin type and pigmentation risk. Overly aggressive peels can increase irritation, so professional assessment is important. Can chemical peels help pigmentation? They may help improve superficial pigmentation and uneven tone. Deeper or recurrent pigmentation such as melasma often requires a broader combination treatment plan. Can peels help acne? Certain peel formulations can support oily, congested and acne-prone skin. Active or severe acne may require additional treatment. How many sessions will I need? This varies depending on the concern, peel strength and skin response. A series of sessions is often recommended. Is there downtime? Downtime varies. Some peels have minimal downtime, while stronger treatments may cause temporary dryness, sensitivity or flaking. What should I avoid after treatment? Strong exfoliants, excessive sun exposure and irritating skincare should generally be avoided until the skin has recovered. Follow the personalised after-care instructions given by the clinic.
