Chemical Peel

Chemical peels at Estetická klinika Hradec Králové use AHA, TCA, glycolic acid, lactic acid or phenol to dissolve the outermost skin layers and trigger controlled renewal, improving pigmentation, acne, pore refinement, fine lines and skin clarity. Three depth tiers are offered: soft superficial peel (from 1 650 Kč), intense mid-depth peel (from 2 750 Kč) and deep phenol peel for smoker's wrinkles or the eye area (from 6 600 Kč). Results are visible from the first session, with final skin quality apparent 10–14 days post-treatment.

Chemical peels work by applying a controlled acid solution to the skin surface, which temporarily disrupts the bonds holding dead cells together in the outer skin layers and initiates a wound-healing response at the selected depth. The depth of the peel is determined by the acid type, concentration and contact time — allowing the clinic to match peel intensity to each patient's concern and skin type. At Estetická klinika Hradec Králové, three depth tiers are offered. Soft (superficial) peels (from 1 650 Kč) use alpha-hydroxy acids such as glycolic or lactic acid at lower concentrations. They exfoliate only the stratum corneum (the outermost dead cell layer), improving radiance, hydration and mild pigmentation with essentially no downtime — mild redness resolves within a few hours. Intense (mid-depth) peels (from 2 750 Kč) penetrate into the upper dermis using TCA (trichloroacetic acid) or higher-concentration AHAs. They produce more significant peeling over 5–7 days and address moderate pigmentation, acne scars and deeper texture irregularities. Deep phenol peels (from 6 600 Kč) are reserved for the most resistant concerns — perioral smoker's wrinkles and the eye/eyelid area — where maximum collagen remodelling depth is required. Phenol penetrates to the mid-reticular dermis and produces substantial peeling with 7–14 days of recovery; results are correspondingly dramatic. All peel depths can be combined with the clinic's microneedling or mesotherapy treatments for enhanced active delivery or complementary collagen stimulation. A recommended course of 2–3 sessions (with intervals of 3–4 weeks for superficial and mid-depth peels) produces cumulative improvement across all concerns — particularly acne, pigmentation and surface texture. The mandatory 500 Kč consultation assesses skin type, Fitzpatrick class (higher types risk post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation from deeper peels) and the appropriate peel selection.
