Thanks for the query. Chemical peels come for different purposes like facial rejuvenation, acne scar and hyperpigmentation. Each peel has a different strength and indication. Combination of peels can be done by experts. While by large most chemical peels are safe, the exact outcome cannot be predicted and it is a good idea to get a test peel done on a small area and observe it for few days. This will rule out chances of having an allergic reaction to the constituent of the peel. Many Non-Dermatologists practising chemical peels are not well trained and there are higher chances of error with them. When needed and done perfectly, chemical peels can work wonders. Select a good clinic and begin your treatment.

Hello there.... For these you can use cocoa butter or vitamin E creams. Topical treatments with acids and chemical peels can be effective but can take a while for the skin to totally revert to its normal color. Microdermabrasion can also be done, but this might require several sessions. Skin resurfacing using lasers is also an option....
