What is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a professional skin treatment that uses carefully selected exfoliating ingredients to improve the appearance of uneven skin tone, dullness, rough texture, and certain types of blemishes. The treatment is customized according to your skin concerns and tolerance.

What skin concerns can chemical peels address?

Chemical peels may help improve the appearance of:

  • Uneven skin tone and visible pigmentation
  • Dullness and rough texture
  • Certain types of acne and blemishes
  • Fine lines and visible signs of sun damage

Suitability and expected results vary by skin type and peel formulation.

Are chemical peels suitable for all skin types?

Not every peel is suitable for every skin type. At Skin & Rouge by MK, we recommend a consultation to assess your skin, sensitivities, concerns, and treatment history before selecting an appropriate option.

Will my skin peel after the treatment?

Visible peeling is not guaranteed. Depending on the formulation and treatment depth, you may experience mild redness, dryness, flaking, or more noticeable peeling. Your provider will explain what to expect before your appointment.

Is there any downtime?

Downtime depends on the type and depth of the peel. Some superficial treatments involve little downtime, while others may require several days or longer for recovery. We recommend planning your treatment around your schedule and following your personalized aftercare instructions.

How many treatments will I need?

The number of sessions depends on your skin concerns, the peel selected, and your response to treatment. A series of treatments may be recommended rather than a single session. Your treatment plan will be discussed during your consultation.
