What is body peel?
The body peel is most commonly performed on areas such as the back, but it is also highly effective for the feet, hands, and shoulders. It is ideal for addressing concerns such as acne, acne marks, uneven skin texture, keratosis pilaris, dryness, or simply to enhance the skin’s appearance for special occasions. A body peel removes the skin’s outer barrier, allowing subsequent treatments to work more effectively.
This procedure can be combined with various treatments, and we are renowned for delivering an instant glow that leaves you with radiant skin and no downtime. Since we cater to well-known personalities, including celebrities from the movie industry, sports, business, and politics, downtime is simply not an option for our clinic—or for our patients.
Our unique combination treatment involves selecting the right type of peel tailored to your skin needs, followed by a laser treatment that enhances glow and brightness, and finishing with a hydrating facial. This three-step process leaves you with beautifully rejuvenated skin, ready to step out confidently. Each treatment plan is customized by Dr. Rashmi Shetty based on your individual skin needs and goals.
How does it work?
A chemical peel works by applying a chemical solution to the skin to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells. This process stimulates the growth of new, healthier skin cells, improving texture, tone, and overall health. It helps to address issues like clogged pores, excess oils, and product buildup, promoting a smoother, clearer surface.
What is procedure like?
The chemical peel procedure involves the following steps:
• Cleansing: The area is thoroughly cleansed to remove dirt, oils, and makeup.
• Application: A chemical solution is applied to the skin.
• Action Time: The solution is left on for a specified time, allowing it to exfoliate and break down dead skin cells.
• Neutralizing: The solution is neutralized or removed, depending on the type of peel.
• Aftercare: The skin is moisturized, recovery cream and sunscreen is applied. Post-treatment care instructions are provided.
What can I expect?
• Smoother Skin
• Improved Skin Tone
• Evened Skin Texture
• Reduced Acne and Breakouts
• Fewer Fine Lines and Wrinkles

When will I see results?
Results from a chemical peel can typically be seen within 1 to 2 weeks as the skin starts to heal and regenerate. However, optimal results, especially for deeper peels, may take 4 to 6 weeks or more.
How long does the result last?
The results of a chemical peel can last anywhere from a few weeks to several months, depending on the depth of the peel and individual skin type. Lighter peels may last 1-2 months, while deeper peels can provide results for up to 6 months or longer. Maintenance treatments are often recommended to sustain the results.
Are there any risks?
Although rare, potential side effects may include Redness, Irritation, Peeling, Dryness, Hyperpigmentation (Darkening of Skin)
, Hypopigmentation (Lightening of Skin), Scarring, Infection, or Sensitivity to Sun.
