Alphahydroxy acids (AHAs): These are the mildest of peel formulas and produce light peels. These are generally used to improve pigmentation, to smoothen out the wrinkles etc. Glycolic peel is the most widely used AHA peel.
Trichloroacetic acid (TCA): This is mostly used for medium depth peeling. Surgeon decides how many peels are required for you. This also used for Fine surface wrinkles, superficial blemishes and pigment problems.
Phenol: This is the strongest of the chemical solutions and produces a deep peel. It is used to correct blotches caused by sun exposure, birth control pills, or aging. This is also used to smooth out coarse wrinkles and to remove pre-cancerous growths. But recovery is slow and complete healing may take several months.
