Professional Chemical Peel Treatments in Mississauga, ON
If your skin is looking a bit dull or you are noticing uneven tone, sun damage spots, or old acne marks, then maybe chemical peel treatment is just what you need. Here at Glamderm Medispa, you’ll find top-tier chemical peels that work effectively to remove dull, worn-out skin and uncover smoother, brighter layers underneath.
A chemical peel uses a carefully selected solution to dissolve dead skin cells on the top layers of the dermis. Think of it as hitting the reset button on your complexion. Whether you’re treating your face, neck, or hands, a peel can bring back that glow you’ve been missing.

Types of Chemical Peel treatment in Mississauga
We offer different levels of peels because everyone’s skin is different. When you’ll come for your consultation, we’ll not only take a close look at your skin, but we’ll also recommend the perfect level that suits your needs and comfort.
A Mild Peel
It uses gentle alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), which lightly exfoliate the top layer of your skin. A wonderful solution for fine lines, mild breakouts, and even dry patches, it’s a recommended option for most people.
Recovery time: About 4 to 7 days.
A Medium Chemical Peel – Moderate Peel
Targets deeper layers using trichloroacetic acid or glycolic acid. Perfect for more noticeable pigmentation, acne scars, and deeper wrinkles.
Recovery time: Around 5 to 7 days.
Deep Chemical Peel – Intense Chemical Peel
The deep chemical peel gets to the skin’s mid-layers as it uses phenol or strong trichloroacetic acid. It’s highly suitable for deep wrinkles, stubborn sun damage, and more severe scarring.
Recovery time: At least 2 weeks.
Preparing for Your Chemical Peel
To make sure your skin responds well, we request that you pause retinol products 48 hours before your peel and avoid exfoliating, waxing, or bleaching hair in the treatment area. If you want to prep your skin gently, a mild glycolic lotion is generally safe unless advised otherwise.
Chemical peels work beautifully for many people, but they’re not always the right match for very sensitive skin, active breakouts, a history of unusual scarring, or those who have used Accutane recently. During your consultation, we’ll walk you through what’s safe, what’s effective, and what will give you the best results.
