What are Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels are professional exfoliating treatments that use carefully selected acids to remove damaged outer skin layers, revealing smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin underneath. Whether you're battling acne, pigmentation, or dullness, chemical peels help improve texture and accelerate skin renewal. In Hongdae, Seoul—home to trend-savvy skincare clinics—chemical peels are customized to your skin type and concerns for safe, effective rejuvenation.
What Are Chemical Peels Used For?
Chemical peels are suitable for treating a variety of skin issues, including:
- Acne and acne scars
- Enlarged pores and rough texture
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- Hyperpigmentation and sunspots
- Uneven skin tone or melasma
- Fine lines and early aging
Peels can be used on the face, neck, chest, back, and even underarms or bikini area for brightening and smoothing.
How Chemical Peels Work
Chemical peels involve the application of an acid-based solution to the skin, which exfoliates the outermost layers. This process stimulates cell turnover, unclogs pores, and encourages collagen regeneration. Common peeling agents include:
-
Glycolic Acid
for brightness and fine lines
-
Salicylic Acid
for acne and oily skin
-
Lactic Acid
for sensitive or dry skin
-
Mandelic Acid
for pigmentation and inflammation
-
TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid)
for deeper resurfacing
Peels range from superficial (minimal flaking) to medium-depth (visible shedding), depending on your skin condition and goals.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
15 to 45 minutes
A tingling or warming sensation is common
Your provider may apply a neutralizer and soothing mask post-peel
Some redness or tightness may follow, especially with medium peels
When Will I See Results?
You may notice smoother, brighter skin within 3 to 7 days, depending on the depth of the peel. Full benefits, including reduced pigmentation or breakouts, develop over several weeks. A series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced a few weeks apart is typically recommended for optimal results.
Is There Any Downtime or Recovery?
Downtime depends on the peel strength:
- Mild peels — Minimal flaking, no real downtime
- Medium peels — Peeling and dryness for 3–7 days
- Post-care — Avoid sun exposure, retinoids, and exfoliants for at least 1 week
Hydrating products and SPF are essential during recovery.
