Chemical Peeling Treatment in Kolkata: Types & What to Expect

By Dr. Manaswita Roy

Chemical Peels: A Cosmetology Staple for a Reason

Chemical peels use controlled exfoliating solutions to remove the outermost layers of skin, revealing smoother, more even-toned skin underneath. They remain one of the most versatile treatments in cosmetology because the depth and ingredient can be tailored to almost any concern.

Common Peel Types

  • Superficial peels (glycolic, lactic, mandelic): Great for dullness and light texture concerns, minimal downtime.
  • Medium-depth peels (salicylic, TCA): Target active breakouts, congestion, and mild pigmentation.
  • Specialised peels: Formulated for melasma-prone or sensitive skin under close supervision.

What Your First Session Looks Like

Your cosmetologist will assess your skin type and current concerns before selecting a peel strength. Expect mild tingling during application, followed by peeling or flaking over the next few days depending on peel depth.

Building a Peel Plan

Most concerns respond best to a short course of sessions rather than a single visit. Since the right peel type, strength, and frequency depends entirely on your skin, message us on WhatsApp with your concern for a customised plan and price.
