What are the different types of chemical peels?

Chemical peels are generally categorized into three types:

• Superficial Peels: These use mild acids like alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) to gently exfoliate the outer layer of skin, improving texture and tone.
• Medium Peels: These use stronger acids such as trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to reach the middle layer of skin, treating issues like wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation.
• Deep Peels: These use powerful acids like phenol to deeply penetrate the skin, addressing more severe skin concerns such as deep wrinkles, sun damage, and significant scarring.
