Dark spots & pigmentation removal peels
Most Popular Procedures
Dark spots and pigmentation removal peels are a type of chemical peel that can help to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and other skin discolorations. These peels work by using a combination of exfoliating agents and lightening agents to help remove the outer layers of the skin and reduce the appearance of pigmentation.
The specific ingredients and strength of the peel will vary depending on the individual’s skin type and the severity of the hyperpigmentation. Some common ingredients in dark spots and pigmentation removal peels include glycolic acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, and kojic acid. These ingredients work to exfoliate the skin and increase cell turnover, while also reducing the production of melanin in the skin.

Depending on the strength of the peel, some individuals may experience redness, peeling, and flaking in the days following the treatment.
It is important to note that while dark spots and pigmentation removal peels can be effective in reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation, they may not be suitable for all skin types or all types of pigmentation.
