Controlled exfoliation
The chemical solution dissolves dead skin cell bonds at a controlled depth, superficial or medium, based on your concern.
Cellular renewal
As the old skin sheds, new cells regenerate, which may support smoother, clearer-looking skin; results vary.
Targeted action
Different acids (glycolic, salicylic, TCA, mandelic) target different layers and skin concerns the right choice makes all the difference.
How It Works
What is a Chemical Peel Treatment?
A chemical peel is a medical procedure in which a carefully selected chemical solution is applied to the skin to accelerate exfoliation, remove damaged outer layers, and stimulate the growth of new, healthier skin cells beneath. Unlike physical exfoliants, chemical peels work at the cellular level supporting controlled skin renewal that may help selected concerns such as acne, pigmentation, texture, ageing-related dullness, and uneven tone.
The term “peeling” can sound alarming, but a well-planned clinic-based peel is controlled and should be selected according to skin assessment. Dermatologist supervision is critical choosing the wrong peel type, concentration, or depth for a patient’s skin type (especially Indian skin tones) can cause complications. At Cult Aesthetics Dermatology, every peel is planned and supervised by a dermatologist.
From superficial lunch-break glycolic peels to medium-depth TCA treatments for deeper pigmentation and acne scars our range covers selected skin concerns with protocols planned around your skin type, sensitivity, and treatment goals.
Clinical note: Chemical peel suitability and results can vary depending on skin type, sensitivity, active acne, pigmentation depth, recent procedures, sun exposure, medical history, and the type and strength of peel used. A dermatologist-led consultation helps decide whether a peel is appropriate and how it should be planned safely.
Choosing the Right Peel
Superficial, Medium & Deep Peels Explained
The depth of a chemical peel determines what it treats, how much downtime is required, and how noticeable the results can be. Your dermatologist selects the appropriate depth based on your skin concern and type.
🌿
Superficial Peels
Target the outermost epidermis. Ideal for mild concerns dullness, surface pigmentation, mild acne, and regular skin maintenance. Downtime is usually minimal and varies by patient. Can be repeated every 2–3 weeks.
🔥
Medium-Depth Peels
Penetrate into the upper dermis. Treat moderate pigmentation, acne scars, sun damage, fine lines, and more established hyperpigmentation. Light peeling for 3–5 days. May be considered for Indian skin when done carefully.
⚡
Deep Peels
Reach the mid to deep dermis. Reserved for significant sun damage, deep wrinkles, and severe acne scars. Stronger effect, but needs careful patient selection used selectively in Indian skin due to PIH risk. Significant recovery required.
Our Peel Menu
Chemical Peels We Offer
Each peel acid targets different skin concerns at different depths. Your dermatologist selects and often combines these based on your skin analysis.
Salicylic Acid Peel
A commonly used peel for oily, acne-prone skin. Oil-soluble beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that penetrates deep into pores, may help dissolve sebum and reduce acne-causing bacteria (C. acnes) and inflammation. Often considered for blackheads, whiteheads, and oily skin. Sessions: 4–6, every 2 weeks.
Glycolic Acid Peel
A commonly used AHA peel. Smallest molecular size means deepest penetration. May support cell turnover and help with selected pigmentation, fine lines, texture and radiance; results vary. Available in concentrations from 20% (superficial) to 70% (medium-depth).
Mandelic Acid Peel
A commonly used AHA option for Indian and darker skin tones. Its larger molecular size allows gentler, more gradual penetration and may reduce irritation risk when selected appropriately. It may be used for mild pigmentation, acne marks, and sensitive skin types after assessment.
Lactic Acid Peel
A gentle, hydrating AHA derived from milk. Exfoliates while simultaneously delivering moisturisation making it ideal for dry, sensitive, or dehydrated skin. Improves texture, reduces dullness, and subtly brightens with minimal peeling or discomfort.
TCA Peel (Trichloroacetic Acid)
A medium-depth peel that may help selected acne scars, deeper pigmentation, sun damage, and fine lines. At 15–35%, TCA may be suitable for some Indian skin types; suitability depends on your skin type and medical history, which we assess first. Requires 3–7 days of downtime.
Jessner's Peel
A carefully balanced combination of salicylic acid, lactic acid, and resorcinol delivering the benefits of multiple acids in a single, synergistic formula. May be considered for moderate pigmentation, acne scars, and uneven texture. A medium-depth option at our clinic.

Step by Step
Your Chemical Peel Session What to Expect
Every peel at Cult Aesthetics follows a dermatologist-supervised, step-by-step protocol designed with patient safety in mind.
01
Pre-Peel Consultation & Skin Assessment
Your dermatologist reviews your skin history, concern, current medications, and Fitzpatrick type. A peel type, concentration, and depth are recommended. A pre-peel priming regimen (Vitamin C, retinol, or kojic acid) may be prescribed for 2–4 weeks to optimise results.
02
Pre-Treatment Preparation
On peel day, skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove all traces of makeup, sunscreen, and oil. A degreasing solution is applied to ensure even penetration of the chemical solution across the treatment area.
03
Peel Application
The selected peel solution is applied in controlled layers using a brush or gauze. You may feel mild tingling or warmth, which intensifies slightly with deeper peels. The dermatologist carefully monitors the skin's response throughout.
04
Neutralisation & Removal
After the correct dwell time, the peel is neutralised and removed. For superficial peels, this occurs after just 2–5 minutes. Medium-depth peels may remain slightly longer. The neutralisation step stops the peel action precisely when needed.
05
Post-Peel Care Application
A soothing, barrier-repair serum and moisturiser are applied immediately after the peel. For deeper peels, a calming mask or occlusive barrier may also be used to minimise redness and support healing.
06
Aftercare Prescription & Follow-Up
You'll receive a written aftercare guide and a prescription kit typically including a gentle cleanser, barrier moisturiser, and SPF 50+. Your next session is scheduled based on your skin's response and the peel type used.
