Hyperpigmentation isn’t just limited to your face. Many people struggle with dark patches on the back, arms, underarms, and legs. Whether it’s from acne, sun exposure, or friction, these marks can be tough to fade. But thanks to modern dermatology, there’s a solution — body peel for hyperpigmentation.
Let’s explore how glycolic acid body peels work, their benefits, and how Dr. Sakhiya’s Glow Peel and skincare range can support your journey to clearer skin.
What is a Body Peel for Hyperpigmentation?
A body peel involves applying a chemical solution—usually an acid—to exfoliate the upper layers of the skin. This process encourages cell turnover and removes dead skin, which helps reduce pigmentation and uneven skin tone.
Unlike facial peels, body peels are formulated to treat tougher, thicker skin and larger areas like the back, shoulders, underarms, and thighs.
Why Glycolic Acid Body Peels Are a Game Changer
Among the different acids used in chemical peels, glycolic acid stands out as one of the most effective for treating pigmentation on the body.
✅ Key Benefits of Glycolic Acid Body Peel:
-
Exfoliates dead skin cells and reveals smoother skin
-
Reduces pigmentation and dark spots from sun damage or acne
-
Improves skin texture by stimulating collagen production
-
Prepares skin for better absorption of serums and moisturizers
-
Safe for most skin types when done under expert supervision
Who Should Try a Body Peel?
If you have any of the following skin concerns, you’re likely a good candidate for a body peel:
-
Acne scars on the back or shoulders
-
Pigmentation or tanning on arms and legs
-
Dark underarms
-
Uneven skin tone from friction or shaving
Note: Always consult with a certified dermatologist before beginning any chemical peel treatment, especially for sensitive areas.
