Chemical peeling for face & body

Chemical peels have been a tried and tested method of refining the skin's appearance since ancient Egypt. Cleopatra, who was known for her flawless complexion, is said to have used sour milk to regularly care for her skin. This naturally contains alpha-hydroxy acid, which makes it easier to remove dead skin cells. The result: the skin is stimulated to produce new cells, which ensures a more even complexion.

A chemical peel is a treatment in which acids are used to loosen dead skin cells and stimulate skin renewal.

Chemical peels can provide a visible improvement for acne, pigmentation spots, fine lines, rough skin texture and a dull complexion.

Typical active ingredients are alpha-hydroxy acids (e.g. glycolic acid, lactic acid), beta-hydroxy acids (salicylic acid) and trichloroacetic acid (TCA).

In some cases, there may be a slight burning or tingling sensation during application. Beyond this, however, chemical peels are very well tolerated.

Initial effects such as smoother and more radiant skin can be seen after just a few days. For lasting improvements, we recommend regular treatment.

Consistent sun protection and gentle skin care are a must after chemical peeling to avoid irritation and optimise the effect.

A professional chemical peel is available from Medical Contour from just EUR 249.

Light peels are also possible at home, but for safe and effective results we recommend a professional treatment by our trained experts.

A chemical peel can help you with the following skin problems:

Is your skin on strike?

Irregular complexion

Uneven skin, dull patches or blotchy areas make your complexion look uneven and tired. The complexion loses its luminosity and appears less fresh and balanced overall.

Acne or rosacea

Pimples, redness or inflamed areas become visible and affect your well-being as well as your skincare and make-up routine. The affected areas are often more sensitive and react more strongly to external influences.

Pigment spots

Darker or lighter areas of skin quickly stand out on the face. They make your skin look uneven and can spoil the overall impression of your skin, even if it is otherwise well cared for.

Have you already tried so much?

Long application time

Many products take weeks to months to show the first changes. They also require consistent daily use, which can quickly become tedious in everyday life and requires a lot of patience.

Barely visible effects

Despite regular use, improvements are often so minimal that the appearance of the skin remains unchanged or is only slightly optimised. The result often does not meet expectations, even though a lot of time has been invested.

High costs

A large number of products and their constant repurchasing quickly add up without the financial outlay really being worthwhile. This increases costs, while the actual benefit often remains limited.

We achieve optimum results with a treatment that is perfectly tailored to your skin.

Treat your skin to a chemical peel

Fresh shine

Exfoliation removes dead cells, smoothing the skin's surface and giving it a fresher appearance. At the same time, the skin appears more even, more radiant and noticeably smoother.

Delicate surface

By unclogging pores and thus reducing inflammation, a chemical peel can minimise impurities and soothe the skin. As a result, new breakouts are less frequent and the skin appears clearer and more balanced overall.

Even skin texture

A chemical peel accelerates cell renewal so that pigmented cells are removed more quickly and the skin tone appears more even again. Darker areas lighten visibly and the skin takes on a more harmonised, vital expression.

About us

We invite you: Get to know us!

From superficial to medium-depth applications, we offer a carefully selected range of chemical peels that are recognised for their effectiveness and high safety profile. Our approach is based on repeated, coordinated treatments to achieve progressive results and minimise downtime. We take great care to ensure that all treatments are carried out by trained skincare experts in a professional, clinical environment.

Want more than just a scrub? An essential part of our Hydrafacial-programme are superficial peelings, which we use to treat specific skin problems such as hyperpigmentation, fine acne scars or large pores. However, through a thorough skin analysis, customised concepts and - on request - the combination with medical home care, we support your skin optimally before and after each treatment. This ensures that our treatment is not only effective, but also safe and can lead to healthy, radiant skin in the long term. We would be delighted to show you our practice in person and introduce you to our expert team.

What you can expect from a chemical peel on your face

We then create a customised treatment concept that is tailored to your requirements. It is important to us that you feel completely comfortable.

Professional treatment

The treatment is of course carried out by trained skin care experts in a clinical environment. You can rely on our high quality standards.

Peeling for acne scars

Peeling is an effective method for visibly reducing acne scars and improving the skin's structure in the long term. Particularly on the face, uneven areas, discolouration or residual pigmentation can disrupt the appearance of the skin. Targeted treatment with a chemical peel can help to smooth out these skin changes and even out the complexion. The controlled application of chemical peels removes dead skin cells, stimulates cell renewal and exposes new, fresh layers of skin. A peel can show very good results, especially with post-inflammatory discolouration. Regular treatment can lighten darker areas, reduce redness and thus ensure a more even complexion. Superficial to medium-depth peels are often used on the face, which can improve not only acne scars but also large-pored skin and fine lines. Repeated applications can often also achieve long-term, visible results - for smoother, clearer and generally more radiant skin. We are also happy to support you with further treatment at home, so that your private skincare routine and professional treatment with us are perfectly coordinated.

Exfoliation for other body regions

A chemical peel is not only suitable for the face, but can also achieve impressive results on other parts of the body. Chemical peels are particularly popular on the back, as this is often affected by blemishes, acne scars or cornification. By removing the upper layers of the skin in a controlled manner, a peel can visibly improve the texture of the skin, smooth out imperfections and refine the skin's appearance. You are guaranteed to attract attention in a backless dress. A chemical peel can also be used specifically against pigmentation spots to lighten darker areas on the arms, back, décolleté or hands and achieve a more even complexion. A chemical peel can also produce very good results on scars. Our tip: Regular use stimulates cell renewal, which can make scars flatter, lighter and less noticeable. If you are looking for a chemical peel in Hamburg, Medical Contour offers professionally performed treatments that are individually tailored to the skin condition and body region. With pleasure advise we will advise you comprehensively - also with regard to our other treatments such as Endolift® - and look forward to your visit!
