Will a chemical peel solve my discoloured and textured face?

Hello and thank you for your question. Retinol is a great product to use for skin health. Usually for discoloration and texture issues I would combine different treatments to give you the maximum results. Laser resurfacing and chemical peels usually work well for this.

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis. We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .

Best,

While a consultation is ideal, the short answer would be, yes, A chemical peel could help with tone, texture and discoloration. For optimal results, you would want to make sure you are using a pharmaceutical grade skincare and always using a sunscreen.
