Overview
What to know about chemical peels
A chemical peel applies a precise solution to the skin to lift away damaged surface cells and prompt fresh, more even skin to surface. The right peel can brighten dull tone, soften fine lines, calm breakouts, and fade discoloration — with a range of depths from a lunchtime refresh to a more corrective treatment.
Juniper offers a full menu — including the VI Peel, TCA peels, pigment-correcting peels, and the Cosmelan® peel for melasma — because different skin types and concerns call for different chemistry. The wrong peel on the wrong skin can worsen pigment; the right one, chosen by a dermatologist, is one of the most reliable ways to renew skin tone and clarity.
Every peel here begins with a skin assessment, so the formula and depth are matched to your skin type, your concern, and your downtime — especially important for melasma and richer skin tones, where peel selection is a genuinely medical decision.
What to expect
Downtime & recovery
Recovery depends entirely on peel depth. A light, radiance-reviving peel (like a VI Peel) leaves skin pink and lightly flaky for a few days. Medium-depth TCA peels involve more visible peeling over roughly 5-7 days as the surface renews.
Cosmelan® and pigment peels for melasma follow a specific at-home regimen your provider maps out, and the fading of discoloration continues over the following weeks as you follow the plan.
Aftercare essentials
- Do not pick or pull peeling skin — let it shed naturally
- Keep skin hydrated with the recommended products

- Pause retinoids and acids until your provider clears them

Why a dermatologist
Peel selection is where expertise shows. On melasma and richer skin tones the wrong peel can deepen pigment — so a board-certified dermatologist chooses the chemistry and depth that resurface safely and predictably for your skin.

Chemical Peels FAQ
Which chemical peel is best for me?
It depends on your skin type and goal. A VI Peel suits overall radiance and tone; TCA peels address fine lines and texture; Cosmelan® and pigment peels target melasma and hyperpigmentation. Your dermatologist recommends the right peel at your consultation.
Is a chemical peel safe for melasma or darker skin tones?
Yes — with the right peel and an experienced hand. Because some peels can worsen pigment if mismatched, we select the formula and depth carefully, and Cosmelan® is one of our go-to programs for melasma across a range of skin tones.
How much peeling and downtime should I expect?
Light peels cause a few days of mild flaking; medium TCA peels involve more visible peeling for about 5-7 days. We match the depth to the downtime you can accommodate.
How many peels will I need?
Some concerns improve with a single peel, while pigment and acne usually respond best to a short series. We'll outline a clear plan and cadence up front.
