Acne Peel Treatments at Alive Wellness Clinics

Dealing with stubborn acne can be challenging, and traditional treatments do not give quick results. Recurrent acne leaves behind marks and uneven skin texture that are difficult to hide. Not everyone has the patience for the traditional 3-6 months of acne treatment. Acne peels are a quicker way of getting their acne treated. The peels are dermatologically backed and clinically proven to clear active acne, reduce oil, fade marks, and renew the skin. Let’s get to know more about it.

What Is An Acne Peel?

An acne peel is a liquid solution of glycolic, mandelic, or salicylic acid, which improves skin texture and pigmentation. Acne peel reduces oil production, unclogs the pores, and accelerates skin renewal. An acne peel works by temporarily removing the outer layer of the skin. Medical-grade acne peels use a higher-strength liquid solution, depending on the patient’s skin and the severity of acne. The procedure is performed by skilled dermatologists in the clinic.

How Acne Peels Work

  1. Firstly, it will dissolve any trapped sebum, oil, or dead skin cells. This will prevent any new breakouts.

  2. The ingredient used in the peel by your dermatologist reduces the bacterial load inside the follicles, which will calm active acne.

  3. The anti-inflammatory acids used in the peel soothe the inflamed skin. 

  4. The peel repairs the skin and speeds up the recovery of marks. 

  5. Acne peel breaks down melanin clusters, which helps in fading the dark spots.

Who Should Consider an Acne Peel?

You should consider an acne peel if:

  1. You have recurrent acne.

  2. Your skin is oily, and you have clogged pores.

  3. You have blackheads and whiteheads.

  4. You have dark spots and hyperpigmentation.

  5. Uneven skin texture.

  6. If topical treatment has not worked for you.

  7. If you want quick results.

  5. Prevents recurrence of active acne.

Aftercare & Results 

Your skin might appear red few days after the treatment and then may start to peel for a few days. The consultant will advise you to:

  1. Use a gentle cleanser and keep the treated skin well moisturised.

  2. Apply sunscreen daily and avoid direct sun exposure to protect the healing skin.

  3. Do not pick, scrub, or exfoliate the treated area while it heals.

  4. Avoid active skincare ingredients and harsh products until your consultant allows.

  5. Stay away from heat, steam, workouts, and swimming for at least 24–48 hours or as advised.

  6. Follow all post-treatment instructions carefully and contact your provider if you notice unusual redness, swelling, or discomfort.

You might notice a reduction in your acne within 7 to 10 days and fading of marks in 2-4 sessions. Your doctor might recommend you 4-6 sessions spaced 2-3 weeks apart, depending on acne severity. You might be recommended monthly or quarterly maintenance sessions based on your skin health.
