What is a Medium Chemical Peel?
Reviewed by Dr. Hun Kim Thao
Acne scars, deeper wrinkles, and uneven skin color can all be treated with a medium chemical peel.
The chemicals used for this type of peel will remove skin cells from both the outer layer of skin (epidermis) and the upper part of your middle layer of skin (dermis).
Agents frequently used for medium-depth chemical peeling include TCA (trichloroacetic acid), Jessner’s solution, and glycolic acid.

Medium chemical peel procedure steps
Our experienced Dermatologists will carefully examine your skin and discuss your desired skin health objectives to determine if a medium peel is the correct peel to achieve your desired skin health outcome.
Our licensed and trained Nurses will cleanse your face.
The chemical solution is brushed onto your skin and left for just a few minutes. You may feel some burning or stinging.
The treated area may turn a whitish-grey color.
The chemicals are neutralized with a cool saline compress.
Your skin may turn red or brown in the days just after the peel. The peeling process typically starts within 48 hours and lasts for a week. It is important to keep the skin well moisturized during the peeling process.
Medium chemical peel risks and recovery
When trichloroacetic acid is used in a medium chemical peel, you’ll experience some redness, stinging, and flaking of the skin. Commonly, symptoms are similar to those of a deep sunburn.
Although these chemicals won’t bleach your skin, you may see some color changes. You’re advised to avoid the sun and to use sunblock for several months to protect that fresh new layer of skin.
Other medium chemical peel risks include
Hyperpigmentation (when too much pigment occurs, causing brown blotches) may result even if you use sunscreen.
Permanent scarring is another infrequent risk.
Redness, which occurs in everyone after the peel, may last longer than a few months for some people.
Some frequently questions about chemical peels
Is facial peel good?
Peels can be performed with different levels of impact on the skin layer, from mild to deep depending on the problem of the facial skin.
However, the effectiveness of a chemical peel is highly dependent on the product and how safe the technique is used during the treatment.
It is also the reason why skin peels at-home can present particularly serious risks.
How effective is the skin peel method?
Each peel method comes with a number of different chemicals which are naturally extracted, so it is safe to apply to the skin. Includes Alpha Hydroxy Acid AHA and Beta Hydroxy Acid BHA to remove dead skin cells in the epidermis quickly.
The deeper the layer peel, the better the skin improvement effect will be. However, skin may take longer times to recover from medium and deep chemical peels.
Does biological peel need a break?
Performing a shallow peel requires no downtime. However, after the treatment, you should have at least 2 to 3 weeks of skin recovery at home.
You should follow your doctor’s instructions on how to safely and effectively use sunscreen, cleanse, moisturize, and apply skin-protecting ointments.
Avoid squeezing, rubbing, or scratching the skin after a peel treatment because this can cause scarring or enlarge pores.
When will I see results after the peel?
As your skin heals, you’ll see the results of this peel have a noticeable improvement in your skin such as smoothing fine lines, tightening pores, or treating dark spots effectively.
Healing time ranges from 1 day for shallow peels to 14 days or longer for deep peels.
However, to bring the expected skin effect from the treatment, you should repeat the peel from 3 to 5 times.
How long will the peel effect last?
There is no method that provides permanent skin improvement for the following skin. Because our skin will continue the natural aging process.
If you have sun damaged skin or photo keratosis lesions (one of the precancerous skin changes, known as actinic keratosis) due to lack of proper skin care regimen.
You will still continue to see new brown spots, wrinkles, and lesions appear on your skin after a chemical peel treatment.

0-09-2019 "I would love to thank Dr. Hun Kim Thao and her amazing staffs for helping me through a skin improving journey over an almost year while I was staying in HCM. I received acne facial and peel every other week and the service was superb! Each procedure was well explained and Dr.Thao was very attentive. I loved her holistic way of approach to improve patient's skin. Not only she prescribed very effective acne gel but also shared great tips such as reducing the amount of simple carb intake, cutting down sugar, and most importantly highlighting the importance of getting enough sleep. She even recommended a well known doctor in town who could help me with my sleeping problem. In addition, the price was very reasonable and I was very happy with all the service I got from Grace Skin Clinic. Oh Dr. Thao even asked her staff to make me a cup of tea one day as she she thought I looked overly exhausted. I was very moved. How warm hearted she is! I will definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to check up their skin and improve their skin. Amazing place!"

This place is amazing; they help me improve my terrible skin condition which had affected my identity, and my confidence for many years. I have been visiting Grace Clinic during summer time for the past two years, and every time I am here, they create a different program in order to fit my skin condition and my limited time. Furthermore, people from Grace Clinic always greet me with warm hearts. They once invited me to have boba tea with them which made me no longer feel like a customer but a friend which it has created a friendship overtime. I cannot stress how highly I would recommend this place. Again, they are amazing and very professional. There is one thing, you can do walk-in just fine but it would be better if you schedule the appointment so they can prepare and create the best service for you.

I absolutely love the ladies of Grace Skincare. I was staying in Saigon for 6 months and came here with acne and a congested skin from my travels. So happy I found them! Their prices are reasonable compared to other “expat” clinic that I went to. I bought the 10 facial package for a really good price and am really happy with the result of my skin after following all of their consultations. Acne has cleared up and now we’re focusing on my other skin concerns such as dark spots and hyperpigmentation. I highly recommend this clinic. They truly want you to walk out with skin you feel confident in. I’m going to miss this place and the ladies I got to connect with during my time here.

Deanna Hong – HCMC, Yoga Instructor
Hey guys it’s been 3 weeks since we came for our treatment. I can honestly say it’s the best I have had done. Andrew and I look fresh without being overdone. We both had people say how refreshed we look after our holiday. Honestly they wouldn’t be saying that if they knew how much beer and yummy Vietnamese food we consumed when we were there. I can honestly say Andrew and I will be back. And I am telling all my friends how fantastic you guys are and how professional the consultation was. I have yet to find someone in Australia who is so thorough. Thank you, Kylie

I had a acne treatment here last month and now it's improved a lot. I must say that this place is very professional, modern equipment, especially the thoughtful doctor! I'm impressed!

The owners are wonderful people. I had a good experience and can sincerely and highly recommend everything about Grace Skincare Clinic!
Sandra Menhart – New York, NY, Visiting Profesor
I was so embarrassed with the scars and pigmentation marks on my face. These are from old sports injuries and harsh products on my legs from childhood accidents. I am fed up with using so much concealer makeup on my face and am never able to wear a skirt with confidence. I heard about the Grace Skincare Clinic pigmentation lightening treatment from a friend. I took 6 treatments & used skincare product as Dr. Thao instructed and now my skin is beautiful and permanently clear. It was worth every penny.

as Tet is coming, I highly recommend this place for a weekend retreat, skin detoxing or even an urgent package to soothe and smooth your skin. I got back my healthy skin after just 02 week following the instruction of Dr Thao Hun and it cost me 200,000 for medical consultation fee only. Wonderful!
