The treatment uses a specific blend of chemicals that are applied to the skin and left on for a short time. Then, they are removed and the skin is cleansed. Chemicals used for these treatments include alpha hydroxy acids and trichloroacetic acid.

The purpose of a chemical peel is to remove the dead skin and exfoliate it, leaving behind fresh, youthful skin cells while allowing rejuvenation through the production of collagen. Additionally, many conditions can be lessened with regular chemical peels.
