What is the Best Peel for my Skin Type? I Am Pakistani With Hyperpigmentation (photo)

I've struggled w/ hyperpigmentation and feel a peel would be good for dark spots on my face.My ethnicity is Pakistani, so I have "olive" skin. I want fresh scar-less skin and trust my esthetician,but I've read a lot of horror stories online about darker skin being prone to scarring or issues. I currently use a 12% glycolic face wash (jan marini) followed by 13% leave-on glycolic soufflé (AHA brand) and haven't noticed scars getting lighter. What kind of peel and strength would you suggest?
