Chemical peel information and locations in Mexico
Chemical peels are used to exfoliate and improve the appearance of the outer layer of the skin.
Depending on the patient’s skin, peels could be light, medium or deep. This is a same day
procedure.
This procedure is used to improve the appearance of the face, neck, and hands. Depending on the
deep of the peel anesthesia might be used. The chemical is placed on the skin using a brush or a
sponge, during the application you might feel a burning sensation and after a few minutes, the
chemical will be removed or neutralized.
Light to medium peels
Light and medium peels are used to treat fine wrinkles, uneven skin tones, and acne marks. These peels usually are done with alpha hydroxyl acid (AHA), trichloroacetic (TCA) or glycolic acid giving you a healthier and radiant appearance.
Deep peels
A deep peel treats sun damage, scars, deeper wrinkles and can help with precancerous skin conditions. The chemical used penetrates the lower layer of the skin, helping the skin to regenerate from a deeper level delivering more notable results in one session.
After an evaluation, the specialist will help to determinate which peel is best for you and the number of peels you will need to reach your goal.
Redness on the skin and sensibility to sun light might be experienced after a chemical peel, the specialist will provide you post-procedure information for recovery.

Chemical peel frequent questions
Get answers to our most frequently asked questions and what to expect after the surgery.
Am I a candidate for a glycolic acid peel?
This procedure tends to work best for patients with lighter complexions. Skin sags or more noticeable wrinkles could not respond well to treatment.
Will it be painful?
You likely will feel something similar to sunburn on the area; cool compresses are applied after the acid is removed to alleviate the sensation.
What happens after treatment?
During the following days, your skin will be red in color, and it will start to scale for the following 3 to 7 days. Some patients could need bandages to be placed over their skin to improve the treatment. You should avoid direct sunlight.
Will I need follow-up treatments?
Most doctors recommend you to repeat the treatment every 3 or 4 weeks, depending on your needs and the condition of your skin and times may vary. We recommend you to speak with your specialist to know if you need a second treatment.
