About this procedure
A light or superficial chemical peel is used to treat fine lines or wrinkles, mild sun damage and mild pigment changes. A light peel commonly uses alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), for example glycolic, lactic or fruit acids. The surgeon applies the acid solution to the areas being treated and removes only a small part of the outer layer (epidermis) of the skin.
