Chemical Peels in Gurgaon
Clinically selected peel protocols — Cosmelan, TCA and Glycolic — prescribed and administered by our dermatologists for visible, lasting results.
What Are Chemical Peels?
Not all chemical peels are the same — and the wrong one on Indian skin can cause more harm than good. At House of Aetheria, every peel protocol is prescribed by Dr. Guneet Bedi based on your Fitzpatrick type, skin concern and treatment goals.
A chemical peel is a controlled application of exfoliating acid to the skin, causing the removal of damaged epidermal and — in medium and deep peels — superficial dermal layers. As the skin heals, it resurfaces with improved tone, texture and pigmentation. The depth of peeling is determined by the acid type, concentration, number of layers applied and skin preparation, and is controlled precisely by your specialist throughout the procedure.
At House of Aetheria, we use a curated range of clinically proven peel formulations: Cosmelan for melasma and stubborn pigmentation, TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid) for medium-depth correction of scars, pigmentation and photodamage, TCA CROSS for icepick and boxcar acne scars, and alpha-hydroxy acid peels — glycolic, lactic and mandelic — for progressive brightening, acne control and skin renewal.
Peel selection for Indian skin requires careful judgement. Darker skin tones are more susceptible to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation if the wrong peel or concentration is used. Dr. Bedi assesses your Fitzpatrick type, pigmentation pattern and skin barrier condition at your consultation before prescribing any peel protocol.

Our Specialists
What Chemical Peels Treat
Dermatologist Prescribed · Cosmelan Certified · All Fitzpatrick TypesChemical peels are classified by depth of skin penetration — superficial, medium and deep. Each tier uses different acid agents, achieves different clinical outcomes and carries a different recovery profile. At House of Aetheria, peel selection is never a one-size-fits-all decision. Dr. Bedi matches the formulation precisely to your skin type, concern and lifestyle.
The frequency and number of sessions depends on the peel depth and indication. Superficial peel series (brightening, acne): 4–6 sessions monthly for progressive improvement. Medium-depth TCA (pigmentation, photodamage): 1–2 sessions spaced 6–8 weeks apart. Cosmelan (melasma): in-clinic application followed by prescribed home maintenance phase.
Visible improvement typically appears within 2 to 3 weeks of each session as the skin completes its renewal cycle. Your specialist will review your progress and adjust the protocol between sessions as needed.
What Chemical Peels Can and Cannot Do
Chemical Peels
- Resurface and brighten skin progressively over a course of sessions
- Reduce post-acne marks and hyperpigmentation significantly over time
- Treat mild-to-moderate melasma effectively with the Cosmelan protocol
- Safely treat all Indian skin tones with correct agent selection and pre-conditioning
- Improve skin texture, fine lines and superficial photodamage with medium-depth peels

Chemical Peels
- Treat active inflamed or pustular acne — the skin must heal before a peel Wait for active breakouts to resolve before booking a session
- Deliver results in a single session for deep pigmentation or melasma A course of 2–6 sessions is required for meaningful correction
- Be used without a pre-conditioning protocol on darker Fitzpatrick types Pre-conditioning with prescribed topicals reduces risk significantly
- Replace isotretinoin for severe nodular or cystic acne Peels complement medical acne therapy — they do not replace it
- Be performed during pregnancy or while breastfeeding
From Consultation to Clearer Skin
Every chemical peel at House of Aetheria begins with a skin assessment. Dr. Guneet Bedi or Dr. Akshay Jain evaluates your Fitzpatrick type, pigmentation pattern, skin barrier condition and any active concerns before prescribing a peel protocol. Skin pre-conditioning is often recommended in the weeks before a medium or deep peel.
The session takes 20 to 60 minutes depending on peel depth. Downtime varies from 1 to 7 days. Monthly sessions build cumulative improvement; results from medium-depth peels are more pronounced per session.

What Our Patients Say
I'd been struggling with melasma for three years and had tried multiple creams without lasting results. Dr. Bedi prescribed the Cosmelan protocol and within 6 weeks the difference was visible. My dark patches are significantly lighter and my skin tone is more even than it's been in years.
I had deep acne marks from teenage breakouts that never faded. Dr. Akshay prescribed a TCA peel series after a detailed skin assessment. After 3 sessions the marks have faded dramatically. The process was thorough — they didn't just apply a peel, they treated it like a medical protocol.
Started a monthly salicylic peel series for my acne-prone oily skin. After the first session I noticed fewer breakouts and my pores looked smaller. By the fourth session my skin was consistently clear for the first time in years. The flaking is minimal — usually just 2 days.
