What Are Chemical Peels?

Chemical peels are advanced skin resurfacing treatments that use carefully formulated acid solutions to exfoliate the outermost layers of the skin. This process removes dead skin cells, unclogs pores, fades pigmentation, and stimulates the production of new, healthy skin cells. As a result, the skin appears smoother, brighter, and more youthful.

At Kairon Polyclinic, our chemical peel treatments in Dubai are personalized based on your skin concerns, tone, and sensitivity level. Whether you’re targeting acne scars, dull skin, sunspots, or fine lines, chemical peels offer a  balanced and effective solution to achieve healthier skin from the inside out.

How Do Chemical Peels Work?

Chemical peels involve the application of a specially designed solution—usually containing ingredients like glycolic acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, or trichloroacetic acid (TCA)—onto the skin. This solution breaks down the bonds between dead skin cells and stimulates cellular turnover.

The intensity of the peel can range from superficial to medium or deep, depending on the skin issue being treated. After the peeling process, the skin begins to heal and regenerate, resulting in a clearer, more even complexion with improved texture and tone.

Who Needs Chemical Peels?

Chemical peels are highly versatile and can benefit individuals with:

  • Acne or acne scars
  • Pigmentation and melasma
  • Sun-damaged skin
  • Uneven skin tone and dullness
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Clogged pores or blackheads
  • Rough skin texture

If your skin looks tired, uneven, or congested, a chemical peel may be the ideal solution to restore its radiance and vitality. At Kairon, we assess your skin carefully before recommending the right type of peel for you.

What Causes the Skin Conditions Chemical Peels Address?

Many common skin issues treated by chemical peels are caused by:

  • Environmental damage (sun exposure, pollution)
  • Hormonal changes (leading to melasma or breakouts)
  • Aging and natural skin cell turnover slowdown
  • Improper skincare routines
  • Genetics and lifestyle habits

By gently resurfacing the skin and encouraging new cell growth, chemical peels correct these concerns at the root and provide visible, long-term improvement.

Where Can Chemical Peels Be Used?

Chemical peels are most commonly performed on the face, but they can also be used on other areas such as:

  • Neck
  • Décolletage (chest area)
  • Back (especially for acne-prone skin)
  • Hands

At Kairon Polyclinic, our skilled aesthetic team ensures that each treatment is tailored to suit the specific area and your unique skin type for optimal results.
