Chemical Peel Treatment in Aundh, Pune
Medical-grade peels for pigmentation, uneven tone and texture — chosen for your skin type and overseen by Dr. Nileema Shisode, MD, at Braces and Beyond, Aundh.
A chemical peel applies a controlled chemical solution to the skin to remove its damaged outer layers, so that smoother, more even skin replaces them. At Braces and Beyond, Aundh, medical-grade peels are used to reduce pigmentation, even out skin tone and improve texture, and are overseen by Dr. Nileema Shisode, MD — Skin & Hair Specialist, with over 25 years of experience. The peel and its strength are chosen for your skin type after an assessment.
What chemical peels can help with
- Pigmentation and uneven skin tone
- Dull, rough-textured skin
- Mild acne marks and shallow scarring
- Fine lines and early sun damage
Why the choice of peel matters for Indian skin
Peels range from light (superficial) to deeper ones. Darker and medium skin tones, common in India, are more prone to developing dark patches after irritation, so a peel that is too strong for your skin can leave it worse than before. That is why the type and strength of peel is decided after examining your skin, and why a gentler series of peels is often the safer route to a visible result.
What to expect
- Skin assessment and a discussion of your goals and any medicines you take
- The skin is cleansed and the peel is applied for a set time, then neutralised or removed
- A mild stinging or warm feeling during application is normal
- Over the next few days the skin may feel tight, look slightly red, and flake or peel
Results usually build over a series of sessions spaced a few weeks apart rather than after a single peel.
Aftercare
Daily sunscreen is essential after a peel — new skin is more sensitive to the sun, and sun exposure is the most common reason pigmentation comes back. Do not pick at flaking skin, and avoid scrubs and other exfoliating products until the skin has settled.
When a chemical peel is not the right choice
Peels are postponed if you have an active skin infection, cold sores, sunburn or broken skin in the area, and may not suit you if you have recently taken certain acne medicines or are pregnant. Deep scars and significant sagging need other treatments — a peel will not remove them. And if dullness is the only concern, a gentler skin polishing session may be enough.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a chemical peel safe for Indian skin?
Yes, when the peel type and strength are chosen for your skin. Darker skin tones are more prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation, so the peel is selected after a skin assessment and gentler peels are often used in a series.
How many chemical peel sessions will I need?
It depends on your skin and goal. Results usually build over a series of sessions spaced a few weeks apart rather than from a single peel.
Is there downtime after a chemical peel?
Lighter peels need little or no time off. The skin may feel tight, look slightly red and flake for a few days as it renews.
Can I go in the sun after a peel?
Limit sun exposure and use sunscreen daily. New skin is sensitive, and sun exposure is the most common reason pigmentation returns.
