Chemical peels are a type of cosmetic treatment that involves applying a solution to the skin to remove damaged outer layers and reveal healthier, smoother skin underneath. Chemical peels are typically used to treat a variety of skin issues, including fine lines, sun damage, and acne scars. Dr. Manjusha Kuruwa, a dermatologist with over 32 years of experience at Sparsh Derma Clinic in Mulund West, can help patients determine if a chemical peel is right for them.

There are several different types of chemical peels, including superficial, medium, and deep peels. Superficial peels are the mildest and can improve skin texture and tone, while medium and deep peels can address more significant skin damage, such as acne scarring and deep wrinkles. Dr. Kuruwa can help patients choose the right type of peel based on their skin type and concerns.

While chemical peels can have significant benefits, they do come with some risks. Depending on the type of peel, patients may experience redness, swelling, and peeling for several days after the treatment. In rare cases, chemical peels can lead to scarring or changes in skin color. Dr. Kuruwa will discuss these risks with patients before the treatment and provide detailed aftercare instructions to help minimize any side effects.

Overall, chemical peels are a safe and effective way to improve the appearance of skin. Patients can expect to see significant improvements in skin texture, tone, and fine lines after a chemical peel treatment.
