Introduction
Are you tired of dealing with dull skin, acne scars, or fine lines? A chemical peel could be your ultimate solution. Let us explore how this safe, dermatologist-recommended treatment can rejuvenate your skin under the expert care of Dr. Sandeep Gupta.
What is a Chemical Peel?
First, let’s understand what a chemical peel is. It’s a safe treatment where we apply a solution to gently remove dead skin cells, helping with concerns like acne, pigmentation, and dullness. Many people worry it might thin their skin, but that’s not true. In fact, chemical peels can make your skin healthier by stimulating collagen production and encouraging fresh skin to come to the surface.A chemical peel is a skin resurfacing procedure where a specially formulated chemical solution is applied to your face. It exfoliates the upper layer of the skin, promoting cell turnover and revealing healthier, fresher skin underneath. This treatment is tailored to your skin’s unique needs by a qualified dermatologist like Dr. Sandeep Gupta.
Procedure
Here is what you can expect during a chemical peel at Dr. Sandeep Gupta’s clinic:
-
Consultation: Dr. Gupta evaluates your skin type, concerns, and goals to choose the right peel for you. Options include superficial, medium, or deep peels.
-
Preparation: Your skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove any impurities.
-
Application: The chemical solution is applied evenly to your face. You may feel a slight tingling sensation, which is completely normal.
-
Neutralization and Aftercare: After a set time, the solution is neutralized, and a soothing moisturizer is applied to protect your skin.
Effects of Chemical Peels
The benefits are remarkable:

Dr. Sandeep Gupta ensures that every client achieves glowing, even-toned skin with minimal downtime.
Here are some tips to prepare for a chemical peel:
-
Avoid using creams with ingredients like retinol, AHA, or salicylic acid at least a week before your peel. These can make your skin sensitive, so let’s keep it simple and safe.
-
Always wear sunscreen, even if you’re staying indoors. Sun damage can make your skin more reactive to the peel, and we want the best results for you.
-
Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated. Healthy skin responds better to treatments.
-
Let your dermatologist Dr Sandeep Gupta know about any skin allergies, medications, or recent treatments like waxing or threading. This helps us customize the peel for your skin type.
-
Come with a clean face—no makeup, no creams. We need your skin to be ready for the treatment.
-
If you have a history of herpes simplex virus (cold sores), let your dermatologist know. Chemical peels can sometimes trigger a recurrence. We can provide medication to prevent this from happening.
