What is Chemical Peels?

Chemical peels are professional exfoliating treatments that use safe, medical-grade solutions to remove the outermost layers of dead and damaged skin. Depending on the depth of the peel, they can address a wide range of concerns including fine lines, sun damage, acne, pigmentation, and uneven skin texture. By triggering the skin’s natural regenerative process, peels promote fresher, more youthful-looking skin.

At South Aesthetics, we offer a variety of chemical peels tailored to your skin type and goals—from light, no-downtime peels for a healthy glow to deeper treatments that deliver more intensive rejuvenation. Treatments are available at both our Kimball, TN and Scottsboro, AL locations and are always customized by our experienced providers to ensure safe, effective results.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a chemical peel do?

Chemical peels exfoliate the top layers of skin to improve texture, tone, and overall appearance.

Are chemical peels painful?

Most clients experience a tingling or warming sensation. Stronger peels may cause slight discomfort, but it's temporary.

How long is the recovery time?

 Light peels have little to no downtime, while deeper peels may involve 3–7 days of peeling or flaking.

What skin concerns can chemical peels treat?

They’re great for fine lines, acne, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, uneven skin tone, and texture.

How many treatments will I need?

While you’ll see benefits after one peel, a series of treatments is often recommended for more dramatic results.

Can I wear makeup after a chemical peel?

You should avoid makeup for at least 24 hours or until any peeling subsides, depending on the peel depth.

Are chemical peels safe for all skin types?

Yes, but it's important to choose the right peel for your skin type. Our team will assess and customize accordingly.

Will my skin actually peel?

Not always. Light peels may cause minimal to no visible peeling, while medium or deep peels will produce more noticeable flaking.

How should I care for my skin after a peel?

Avoid sun exposure, skip exfoliants, and use gentle skincare with plenty of hydration and SPF.

Can I get a chemical peel before a special event?

Yes—but timing is important. We recommend doing it at least a week in advance to allow for any peeling and recovery.
