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.
