I have severe hyperpigmentation on my feet, knees, elbows, and knuckles due to years of crawling. Can a chemical peel help?

I used a very expensive skin lightening cream that only worked on the less course skin. I would like to try a chemical peel on my own I’ve been researching and watching videos of professionals. I noticed that chemical peels for hyperpigmentation is usually done on the face. My case is really rare and I’m currently not financially stable to go to a dermatologist.
