A medium chemical peel might be the right choice if you have acne scars, deeper wrinkles and uneven skin color. This kind of peel removes skin cells from both the outer layer of skin (epidermis) and upper part of your middle layer of skin (dermis).| American Society of Plastic Surgeons
A light chemical peel might be the right choice if you have uneven pigment, dryness, acne or fine wrinkling. This kind of peel removes just the outer layer of skin (epidermis) in a light exfoliation and results in a healthier glow.| American Society of Plastic Surgeons
