What is a chemical peel?
mesopeel® is an advanced range of professional chemical peels designed for the aesthetic industry, offering high-quality, reliable, and effective solutions for a wide range of skin concerns.
These treatments work by gently exfoliating the outer layers of the skin, accelerating the natural process of skin cell turnover. As new, healthy skin cells are revealed, the skin appears brighter, smoother, and more radiant.
mesopeel® chemical peels are specially formulated to target common concerns such as:
- Uneven skin tone
- Pigmentation and dullness
- Rough or uneven texture
- Fine lines and early signs of ageing
By stimulating skin renewal, these peels help improve overall skin clarity, enhance luminosity, and restore a firmer, more refreshed appearance.
At BalaBala Laser Clinic, we use a range of clinically proven exfoliating acids, including glycolic acid, lactic acid, and salicylic acid, selected based on your individual skin type and concerns.
Our experienced practitioners will assess your skin during consultation and recommend the most suitable formulation to ensure safe, effective, and personalised results.

PREPARATION
To achieve the best results and minimise risks, it’s important to follow these pre-treatment guidelines:
Before a chemical peel, you will need to:
- For at least 48 hours, refrain from using any retinol topical medicine.
- Tell your skin care professional about any medications you take.
- Have not been taking acne medications for more than six months.
- If you have a history of fever blisters or cold sores, take an antiviral drug to avoid a breakout around the mouth.
- To enhance your treatment, use specialised creams such as glycolic acid lotion.
- Avoid tanning and direct sun exposure for two weeks prior.
- Apply a retinoid cream to avoid skin discolouration.
- The week before the peel, avoid waxing, epilating, or using products that remove hair from the root. Bleaching your hair should also be avoided.
- For one week before the peel, refrain from using facial scrubs and exfoliants.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Treatment typically takes 45 minutes, with no downtime allowing you to return to your daily routine immediately.
AFTERCARE
- Avoid using exfoliating scrubs, astringents, and active products, including Vitamin A, Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) and Beta-Hydroxy Acids (BHAs) for five to seven days after your treatment.
- Apply a light moisturiser regularly in the days following your treatment to maintain levels of skin hydration. It is better to apply too much moisturiser than to let the skin dry out.
- Apply SPF50+ daily. This is a non-negotiable step following all treatments due to increased photosensitivity.
- Do not use a tanning bed or any other type of indoor or outdoor tanning technique whilst your skin is healing.

chemical peel FAQs
All skin types can benefit from chemical peels. Based on your skin type and skin concerns, our skin experts will recommend a chemical peel to suit your skin’s needs. Chemical peels are effective at treating a broad range of skin concerns, including dull skin, skin texture, acne and more. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid chemical peels.
This will depend on the type of skin concern that you are looking to treat. For treating pigmentation, a series of 3 treatments spaced one month apart. For acne concerns, we recommend a course of 3 to 6 peels fortnightly.
The time required between chemical peel treatments is dependent on many factors - including your skin type, the type of acid used, and the concentration of the peeling agent. We recommend most clients to wait 4-6 weeks between treatments.
Many people can see a significant improvement in the appearance of their skin tone and texture after just one peel treatment. Those with mild or very superficial skin concerns may see improvements in their skin appear sooner. The severity of your skin concerns and your skin type will also dictate how quickly you will see results.
The recovery period from a chemical peel depends on the concentration of the peeling acid used. Most clients will experience some redness and sensitivity following their chemical peel. It is important to liberally apply sunscreen and avoid sun exposure during this period, as outlined in your aftercare instructions.
A chemical peel is a clinical technique where we apply a safe chemical solution to the skin’s surface. The peel penetrates the layers of the skin and targets cells that cause conditions such as acne breakouts, traumatic pigmentation.
Mild to moderate erythema (redness), stinging, and peeling is most likely to occur, and the severity and duration of these effects will depend on the depth of your peel.
Certain skin types may experience a temporary or permanent change in skin colour. Taking birth control pills, being pregnant, or having a family history of brownish discolouration on your face may raise your risk of experiencing atypical pigmentation. Additionally, there is a minimal chance of scarring in specific facial regions. Some patients may be more prone to scarring than others, but if scarring does occur, it can be effectively addressed. If you have a history of herpes outbreaks, there is a slight possibility that a cold sore could return. To lessen the likelihood of an outbreak, you may be recommended medication.
Tell your clinician before receiving a chemical peel if you have experienced keloid scarring, any unusual scarring, facial x-rays, or a history of cold sores. Although uncommon, infections are still a possibility.
