I have acne scaring in spots on my face..i habe been applying a skin lightener to try to even the tone but i think they are layers deeper in my skin..so my question is can i apply a chemical peel on just those spots and not my entire face?

Answer: Chemical Peel This is a great question! I would not recommend doing spot treatment chemical peels as it could cause some uneven pigmentation. However, you could an additional layer to the areas that need more concentration. It's also important to remember it may take you a series of peels to achieve even pigmentation from the damage the acne has done. I would also recommend you looking into microneedling as this can be very beneficial with resurfacing the skin where scars have depth to them! Hope this is useful information for you and good luck.

Answer: Chemical Peel For Spot Treatment It is possible to do spot treatments with Chemical Peels but I recommend that you do an all over peel. You will be much happier with the results. You will see an all over better appearance to the skin with a chemical peel applied to the entire face. There are other treatments, such as lasers and microneedling that will also enhance your results of scarring. Seek a consultation with a Dermatologist with experience in these types of procedures.
