Chemical peels can lighten dark skin pigmentation. A beard shadow is formed from the translucency of the skin and the prominence of the hair follicles. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
The beard shadow is actually the dark hair follicles in the skin. A chemical peel does not change this. However, permanent laser hair reduction can address this by permanently destroying the hair follicles. Now while that does reduce or eliminate the beard shadow, it can be a permanent change. So if in the future, you decide that you really want to grow a beard, you may not be able do. For men, the beard shadow is actually a very important masculine feature of the face.
