Chemical Peels

Chemical peels apply a controlled acid solution to exfoliate the skin's surface and prompt renewal, helping with dullness, uneven texture, congestion, acne-prone skin and pigmentation. At MJAesthetic the strength and type of acid — such as mandelic, glycolic or TCA — are matched to your skin and goal, from a gentle refresh to a stronger resurfacing peel. A short course usually gives the most noticeable improvement.

A chemical peel uses a solution of one or more acids to remove the outermost, dead layers of skin in a controlled way, encouraging fresher skin to surface and stimulating renewal beneath. Different acids and concentrations suit different concerns: gentler options such as mandelic or glycolic acid are associated with brightening, smoothing and helping congested or acne-prone skin, while stronger agents such as TCA resurface more deeply to address texture and pigmentation. At MJAesthetic the acid and strength are chosen for your skin type and concern after assessment. The solution is applied for a measured time and then neutralised or removed; you may feel tingling or warmth during treatment, and depending on the depth of the peel the skin can be pink and then flake or peel over the following days as it renews. Lighter peels have minimal downtime and are typically done as a short course spaced a couple of weeks apart, while deeper peels need more recovery and careful aftercare. Diligent sun protection during and after a course is essential because the new skin is more sensitive. Peels may suit adults with dull, uneven, congested or pigmented skin; they are avoided over active infection or broken skin and in pregnancy for certain agents, and the clinic confirms the right peel and any precautions beforehand. Pricing starts from 200 zł depending on the acid used.
