Dark spots can linger for months, sometimes years, after acne, sun exposure, or even a scratch. If you’re tired of layering concealer every morning, you’re probably searching for something that actually fades them. Chemical peels often pop up as a solution, but not all peels – or skin types – are the same.
Hyperpigmentation happens when your skin produces extra melanin, usually after inflammation or UV damage. If your skin tone is medium to deep, you’re even more likely to notice these stubborn patches, and they can be slow to fade on their own.
Chemical peels break down the upper layers of damaged skin, revealing fresher skin beneath. The most effective peels for dark spots use ingredients like glycolic acid, lactic acid, or mandelic acid. These target pigment without wrecking your moisture barrier.
Most people need a series of 3–6 peels, spaced two to four weeks apart, to see a real change. Don’t expect overnight miracles—real improvements usually show up after a month or two.
If you want plant-powered results without the harshness, Lotus Botanicals provides gentle yet effective chemical exfoliants for dark spots. Our formulas are vegan, cruelty-free, and avoid parabens, sulfates, and silicones. Get the results you want while treating your skin—and the planet—right. Check out our lineup for a fresher, more even-toned complexion.
1. Can chemical peels make dark spots worse?
Yes, if used too often or on irritated skin, peels can trigger more pigmentation. Always patch test and use sunscreen every day.
2. How soon will I see results from a chemical peel for dark spots?
Most people notice improvement after 3–4 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart. It typically takes at least a month to see real fading.
3. Is a glycolic acid peel safe for deeper skin tones?
Glycolic acid can work, but mandelic acid is often safer for deeper skin. Always start with a low concentration and patch test first.
4. Should I avoid the sun after a chemical peel?
Absolutely. Sun exposure after a peel can darken spots and increase irritation. Wear SPF 30 or higher, even on cloudy days.
5. Can I use vitamin C right after a chemical peel?
It's best to wait a few days. Combining vitamin C and peels too soon can cause redness or stinging.
6. How do I know which chemical peel is right for me?
Consider your skin type and sensitivity. Lactic acid suits dry or sensitive skin, glycolic is stronger, and mandelic is good for oily or breakout-prone skin.

8. Are chemical peels safe for sensitive skin?
They can be, especially milder peels like lactic acid. Always patch test and start with low concentrations if you're sensitive.
9. How often should I do a chemical peel for hyperpigmentation?
Usually every 2–4 weeks, depending on the peel strength and your skin’s response. More frequent peels can irritate skin.
