What can I expect during a chemical peel?

Comfort Meets Precision

Before your peel begins, your provider may cover your eyes with protective shields and gently secure your hair out of the way. Most patients don't need pain relief for a light peel. For stronger peels, you may have the option of a sedative, pain reliever, or numbing cream for added comfort.

During the treatment, your Marvel Cosmetic specialist applies a customized Glytone solution with a sponge, brush, gauze, or cotton pad. As it works on your skin, you might notice a warm, tingling, or mild stinging sensation that usually eases within minutes.

Once the solution has done its job, your specialist carefully removes it with a neutralizing wash or solution. Cool compresses and a handheld fan may be used to calm and soothe the skin. After a light peel, most patients heal within about one to seven days, revealing a fresher, more radiant complexion.

Healing from a medium or deep peel typically takes about 14 days and may continue to refine over the following weeks. To explore whether a chemical peel is right for your skin and goals, schedule a consultation with Marvel Cosmetic MedSpa.

The Science of Renewal

What is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a non-surgical treatment that gently removes dull, damaged skin so fresher, smoother skin can take its place. During your treatment, a customized blend of exfoliating acids—such as alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), glycolic, salicylic, lactic, TCA, or phenol—is brushed onto the skin in a controlled, precise way.

This solution loosens the bonds that hold dead skin cells together, allowing the outer layer to shed and reveal a more refined complexion underneath. Your Marvel Cosmetic specialist applies the peel with care, focusing on both safety and even coverage. As your skin renews, you'll notice a smoother surface, more even tone, and a firmer, more youthful look.

Chemical peels can address many common concerns, including acne and acne scars, rough or uneven texture, fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, sun damage, and general dullness. Peels are typically grouped by depth:

  • Light Chemical Peels: Use gentle AHAs like glycolic or lactic acid to refresh the very top layer of skin with minimal downtime
  • Medium Chemical Peels: Often use TCA to reach deeper layers and improve moderate sun damage, discoloration, and texture
  • Deep Chemical Peels: Use stronger solutions such as phenol blends to target deep wrinkles, scars, and more advanced signs of aging

What Skin Conditions Can Chemical Peels Help Improve?

One Treatment, Many Transformations

Chemical peels are thoughtfully tailored to address a range of common skin concerns, revealing a smoother, more even complexion.

Acne & Acne Scars

Targeted peels with ingredients like salicylic acid and TCA calm active breakouts while softening lingering post-acne marks.

Uneven Skin Tone & Hyperpigmentation

Helps fade dark spots and discoloration from sun exposure, hormones, or past inflammation for a more balanced, radiant tone.

Rough Texture & Enlarged Pores

Gently polishes the skin's surface to smooth roughness and minimize the look of enlarged pores.

Fine Lines & Mild Scarring

Encourages fresh collagen and elastin, softening fine lines and subtle textural scars.

Deeper Scars & Advanced Wrinkles

More intensive peels reach deeper layers to lift damaged cells and support more significant renewal.

Precancerous Spots & Sun Damage

Medium and deeper treatments can improve rough, scaly patches and visible signs of long-term sun exposure.

Finding the Right Fit

Am I a Candidate for a Chemical Peel?

You may be an ideal candidate if you are hoping to soften acne scars, smooth uneven tone and texture, or address visible signs of aging like fine lines and dullness. Your provider may advise against a peel if you have an active cold sore, have had recent facial surgery, or are currently using retinoids or topical treatments such as benzoyl peroxide.

To help protect your skin, your provider may recommend a short course of antiviral medication before treatment if you are prone to cold sores.

Chemical peels can be tailored to many different skin types and tones, but the depth and solution must be selected with care, especially if you have a deeper complexion, reactive skin, or ongoing skin concerns.

Chemical Peel Recovery

Gentle Recovery Guidance

Healing time varies based on the strength of your peel:

  • Light Peels: Expect mild redness and flaking for about 1–3 days
  • Medium Peels: Plan for more noticeable peeling and redness for 5–7 days
  • Deep Peels: Involves significant peeling, swelling, and healing over 10–14 days

During this time, you'll be asked to avoid sun, heavy sweating, and makeup until your provider approves. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily and follow your customized aftercare plan to protect fresh skin and extend your results.

A More Polished Look

Chemical Peel Results

You'll often notice a smoother feel and a more even, luminous tone after just one chemical peel.

For more stubborn concerns, such as acne scarring, etched lines, or blotchy pigmentation, a curated series of peels can create deeper, more lasting change. Most patients schedule treatments every 4–6 weeks, allowing fresh, healthy skin to emerge with each visit. Over time, your complexion looks clearer, brighter, and more refined. With a consistent skincare routine and daily sunscreen, your results can be beautifully maintained for months.

Frequently Asked Questions

Many patients notice a fresher, more radiant look after just one peel. For deeper concerns such as acne scarring, more pronounced discoloration, or texture issues, a series of treatments is often recommended. Your provider will map out a customized plan, including how often to schedule your peels, based on how your skin responds and the results you'd like to see.

Makeup should wait until your skin's protective barrier has had time to recover. With lighter peels, most patients can return to makeup after several days. Deeper peels may require a week or longer before applying foundation, concealer, or other complexion products. Your provider will give you exact timing and recommend gentle, non-irritating options when you're ready.

During the peel, you'll likely feel warmth, tingling, or a mild prickling sensation. Stronger peels can create more intensity, similar to a brief stinging or tightness. These feelings are temporary and closely monitored. If needed, we can use cooling techniques or numbing options to keep you comfortable throughout the treatment.

Your skin will be more sensitive to light as it heals, so direct sun exposure should be limited. Plan to wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen every day, reapply as directed, and pair it with wide-brimmed hats or shade when possible. This protects your results and helps prevent new dark spots or uneven pigmentation from forming.
