What Is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a controlled exfoliation procedure that uses a specialized solution— such as alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), trichloroacetic acid (TCA), or other agents—to gently remove the outermost layers of skin.
This process stimulates cell turnover and collagen renewal, softening fine lines and improving skin tone, clarity, and texture. Once the damaged surface cells are lifted away, your skin appears smoother, brighter, and more even.
Chemical peels are safe, highly effective, and adaptable for nearly all skin types when performed under the care of a board-certified dermatologist.
Benefits of Chemical Peels
Patients across Slidell and the Northshore choose Hilton Dermatology + Aesthetics for
chemical peels because they provide noticeable results with minimal downtime.
Key benefits of chemical peels include:
- Improved skin tone, clarity, and radiance
- Softer fine lines and smoother texture
- Reduced appearance of acne scars and blemishes
- Fewer dark spots, sun damage, and pigmentation irregularities
- Enhanced absorption of skincare products
- Collagen stimulation for long-term rejuvenation
When incorporated into your ongoing skin rejuvenation therapy, chemical peels can maintain youthful vibrancy and amplify the results of other treatments such as Morpheus8 RF microneedling or laser skin resurfacing.
Types of Chemical Peels Offered
Hilton Dermatology + Aesthetics provides a full spectrum of chemical peels, from gentle exfoliation to deeper resurfacing. Each chemical peel is chosen based on your skin condition, goals, and tolerance level.
Light (Superficial) Chemical Peels
Gentle and refreshing, these peels use mild acids such as glycolic, lactic, or salicylic acid
to exfoliate the outermost layer of the skin (epidermis).
Best for:
- Dull complexion and mild texture concerns
- Acne-prone or oily skin
- Brightening maintenance treatments
Light peels require minimal downtime and can be performed regularly as part of a comprehensive skincare plan.
Medium Chemical Peels
Medium-depth peels, often performed with TCA (trichloroacetic acid), penetrate deeper into the skin to address more visible concerns such as fine lines, sun spots, and uneven tone.
Best for:
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Pigmentation and sun damage
- Acne scars and uneven tone
After a medium peel, the skin may flake or peel for several days, revealing smoother, rejuvenated skin beneath.
Deep Chemical Peels
Deep peels reach the lower dermal layers and are reserved for more significant texture and pigment concerns. These advanced treatments are performed only under dermatologist supervision and often use higher-strength TCA or phenol solutions.
Best for:
- Deeper wrinkles and scars
- Advanced sun damage
- Long-lasting rejuvenation results
Deep peels offer transformative results but require longer recovery time—making them ideal for patients seeking substantial skin renewal.

What to Expect During and After Treatment
During the Peel
Before your peel, Dr. Sophia Mai or another board-certified dermatologist will thoroughly assess your skin and recommend the appropriate solution strength.
The peel solution is applied to your skin for a carefully timed duration. You may feel mild tingling or warmth as the active ingredients work to dissolve dead skin cells and stimulate renewal. The treatment typically lasts 20–30 minutes.
After the Peel
Post-treatment sensations vary depending on peel depth:
- Light peels: Mild pinkness and slight flaking for 1–2 days.
- Medium peels: Peeling and mild redness for 3–5 days.
- Deep peels: More noticeable peeling over 7–10 days as new skin emerges.
During recovery, gentle cleansing, hydration, and sun protection are essential. As healing completes, your complexion appears smoother, brighter, and more youthful.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Chemical Peels?

Patients with active infections, recent sunburn, or certain skin conditions may need to postpone treatment until the skin barrier is restored. Dr. Mai will evaluate your skin to ensure optimal safety and results.
