Reveal smoother, pigment-free skin with customised chemical peels.
Melasma and hyperpigmentation are common skin concerns that plaque many in Kochi, often triggered by our sunny climate, hormonal changes, or medication. These conditions manifest as stubborn brown or grey patches, dark spots, and freckles. At Clinic 7 Aesthetics, we offer customised Chemical Peels to gently exfoliate these layers and reveal the radiant, even-toned skin beneath.
The Science of Renewal
Controlled Exfoliation
Chemical peels involve the application of a carefully formulated clinical solution to the skin’s surface. Unlike physical scrubs that can cause micro-tears, this solution dissolves the bonds between old, dead skin cells gently. This controlled exfoliation clears away dullness and impurities, allowing fresh, healthy skin to surface.
Stimulating Collagen
Beyond just surface clearing, the chemical reaction stimulates the body's natural healing response, promoting collagen production. This results in smoother, firmer skin texture. We offer different types of peels catering to varying depths of the skin, allowing us to tailor the treatment precisely to your specific needs and skin sensitivity.
Targeting Pigmentation
Combating Melasma & Hyperpigmentation
Melasma causes patches of discoloration that can be difficult to treat with creams alone. Our targeted peels penetrate the skin to break up this excess melanin. Whether you are dealing with hormonal melasma or general hyperpigmentation from sun damage, our peels work to fade dark spots and unify your complexion.
Brighter, Smoother Skin
By removing the damaged outer layers, chemical peels significantly improve skin tone and texture. They are highly effective for reducing the appearance of freckles, sun spots, and even fine lines. The result is a brighter, more luminous appearance that looks naturally revitalized.
FAQs
What is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a skin-resurfacing procedure where a chemical solution is applied to remove the top layers of skin, allowing smoother, rejuvenated skin to grow back.
Is it safe for Indian skin?
Yes. We use specific peels such as Mandelic, Glycolic, or Lactic acid that are formulated to be safe and effective for Indian skin tones, minimizing the risk of irritation.
Will my skin actually peel off?
It depends on the depth of the peel.
Superficial (“lunchtime”) peels cause invisible micro-exfoliation.
Medium-depth peels may cause visible flaking for 3–5 days.
Is the procedure painful?
You may feel a mild stinging or warming sensation for a few minutes while the solution is active, but the procedure is generally very tolerable.
Can it remove acne marks?
Yes. Chemical peels are excellent for fading post-acne dark spots (PIH) and improving the overall texture of acne-prone skin.
