- Chemical peels can dramatically improve hyperpigmentation from melasma to PIH including post acne dark marks, acne, texture irregularities, stretch marks, keratosis pilaris, fine lines, wrinkles and the appearance of scars. But you have to be extremely careful about the type of chemical peel and who is performing your peel as melanted skin is different and has different needs.
Learn all about chemical peels and which may be best for you during the chemical peel series with board-certified dermatologist Dr. Alexis Stephens.

I'm so proud and happy to see a African-American dermatologist. Thanks for everything you do
I feel the same when I see white doctors
This...
That part
GURLL WHAAATTT..!! ME TOO!
I'm a licensed Esthetician, and I get so much valuable tips, and information from you. Especially for black skin, and other ethnic drinks. Thank you.
I meant ethnic skins, not drinks.
I want her to do my peel. It's good to know that the service provider believes in caring for the overall health of your skin and not just getting your money.
Recommendation of ingredients & peels for different skin conditions:
8:19 For acne you need either/all of these ingredients - Salicylic Acid, Retinoic Acid, Modified Jessner, Benzoyl Peroxide
VI peel and Perfect Derma peel are recommended
09:11 Melasma - Multiple tyrosinase inhibitors, Retinol
Cosmelan peel, Enlighten peel and Demamelanin peel are recommended
10:16 For PIH & fine lines - Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid, Kojic Acid, Apha Arbutin, Retinoic Acid, Modified Jessner, etc.
Same peels as the Melasma are recommended but changes in the percentage, strength of ingredients and the technique will change the depth into the skin
10:43 Tips to follow
Thank you so much for this information Dr. I've been asking myself what would be ideal. Great information as always❤️
Bless you!
Really well described. I had a few glycolic peels and had no idea of the after care or what to expect. I am finding that derms in the last few years are a lot more interested in a "partnership" versus a "dictatorship" and it is gaining the patients more consistent results.
Thanks so much!
Wow I just love this woman. Straight to the point, well explained and transparent. Can’t wait to see the rest of the series 👏♥️👩🏾🎓
now this is the type of education I'm looking for! I've fought acne since teen years with the scars to prove it, so I always thought "of course I want the deepest peel, we need to get in there!" never occurred to me that it was bad. subscribed!!
I love that you're starting this new series 😍! Thank you.
Yay! Thanks for watching❤️
This is just the video I needed to watch before booking my peel. Thank you.
Yay! This is a great start of a great series. If a doctor does not have before and after pictures posted - What’s the best language to use to find out if they have experience using chemical peels on melanated skin?
Can you do a series on lasers too?
I love your videos! The energy in your presentation and the info you provide are amazing ✨
Thank you so much 🥰
I’m so glad you co-signed the Vi peel-that’s what my derm did for my back
Keep em coming doctor! Appreciate it so much!
Thanks so much ☺️ You are appreciated!
This was so informative. Thank you, Dr. Stephens!!
I'm so glad your explaining this especially for POC ❤️❤️
My pleasure. Thanks so much for watching❤️
Yes I want one next year but I’m scared because I live in the suburbs yikes😅
@@DrAlexisStephens can you please recommend a peel for correcting mild- moderate acne scars. Im finding that lasers are too expensive.
@@DrAlexisStephens how come 90% of the photos of your website are of white people? I found you here and saw you are in my area so I wanted to book with you but then I went to your website and.. the melanin was lackin so now I'm not even sure if you actually specialize in black/brown skin or if this is just for the video?
So excited for this series 🙌🏼 😍
So excited for the at home video. My acne has cleared up a lot now I need to work on the hyperpigmentation
By far the best video I've seen on chemical peels. And thank you for the directory!
Dr. Alexis, thank you SO MUCH for sharing this knowledge and the directory!!
I am so grateful to you for sharing your advise on products for different skin types. I cannot afford to have professional help for my face. My hyperpigmentation has improved greatly from the products you recommend over the counter. Many many thanks.
Love that you talk FAST!!!
Thank you for this video. I’m so happy I found your channel!
This information is golden. Thank you very much.
What an absolutely amazing video. So good thank you!!
Would love to see a video about TCA cross and other treatments for icepick, boxcar, and rolling scars and their efficacy/risks in skin of color.
Can we normalize liking great and useful contents such as this ❤️
Thanks so much for this series and all of your videos 🙂
Love the video lots of good information and how well you explained it. I appreciate
Thank you so much! I appreciate you ❤️
This video was really helpful and insightful. How much time do you recommend between laser hair removal on the face and a chemical peel such as the VI peel?
I can't wait for the"At Home Chemical Peel" video. I've been iffy about it, because I don't want to mess up my face nor the progress I have made with it, but I would love to see your recommendations.
Coming soon! There’s so much on the market I’m happy to navigate this for you all😉
@@DrAlexisStephens Oh my goodness I can't wait! I've been wanting to do an at home chemical peel as well.
I’ve done one. I used a brand called Instanatural. I’ve been doing one from this brand only ever since they first launched it in 2017. I only do it once a week in the winter. I’ve never had any issues with it.
Ya! Also if you do the at home ones how often are you supposed to do?
@@BigFacts798 Hey whats your ethnicity? And skin type. Happy thag worked for you!
Watching from the caribbean, Trinidad and Tobago to be exact. Thank you for doing this work, love your channel and advice.
You're amazing 💗 I love how comprehensive this video was. A lot of content creators like to rush things through and leave me asking more questions than before I watched their video.
This came right on time! I'm going for my first peel this Wednesday (in 2days) I'm nervous but this was super helpful!
I’m looking forward to your videos for the recommended chemical peels. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise!
she is such a pleasure to watch and absolutely stunning...thank you for all the information, much appreciated 🙌🏾
Thank you, extraordinarily informative!
Just wanted to let you know that i've been watching you from Europe...I appreciate your body of work very much!!!
Great explanation for skin of color ❤
Thank you for this video. I appreciate all the education 💗🙏🏽
You are so right! My best results were from the Vi and Perfect Derma peels
Thank you for sharing the directory. I was able to find a doctor that accepts my insurance and just booked an appointment for tomorrow. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and resources for people of color.
So happy to hear that! Wishing you the best🥰
You are great and so helpful. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have followed some of your videos and applied your advices and my skin is getting better everyday. Thanks ❤
Thank you for your videos! Is there any specific tips a person with dark mole prone skin should be doing differently with laser hair removal and treatments hyperpigmentation overall?
Dr. Thank you so much for the educational support/advice for melanin tones! This video has helped me with my decision to proceed with the treatment. You are phenomenal 🤎
So happy the video helped 🥰
Oh God so good to have found your channel. Been looking for this chemical peel for dark and Asian skin
Love this video. Thank you for the thorough information ❤
Your hair looks so pretty with curls! You didn't address the 'pain' issue...Do you think icing the skin or topical anesthetic creams alter the effectiveness of the chemical? Thank you for a fast paced, informative show!
Wow. Thank you for the info. I did the peel and had one small area that peeled. I was upset and thought it didn't work. Overall my skin is different, I wear less makeup now and I got rid of the congestion.
Had 3 chemical peels and though it improved the texture of my skin,reduced excessive oil,it did not really help with hyperpigmentation. I was so disappointed it wasn't until I did microneedling that I started seeing results.
What type of peel did you do?
What kind of peel did you do?
Can't remember the exact names, super jessner,Mandelic peels,etc.
Thanks for sharing. This was helpful experience/information.
How often do you microneedle?
Hey Dr. Alexis Stephens! 🙋🏾♀️ I hope you are having a great Sunday
Happy Sunday 🥰
I'm so excited about this series!! I've only had TCA peels--they were pretty good, but I want to due a series to get ready for my wedding.
Excellent content Dr! I am wondering is it safe to use red light mask after peel heals up?
Such a wonderful video. Chemical peels at a black derm office helped me improve my skin.
Are there any that are particularly good for KP? Or is that something that might be covered in the at home video? Thank you so much for all this great information.
Efficient and great information ❤
Very informative. Thank you.
Dr Alexis, thank you for your help. I am going to make appointment to see you.
I’m looking forward to the other videos in this series
Thanks so much for watching!
Thank you so much for the black derm directory!! I’m two hrs from you in Florida and I was bout to drive ma’am!! 😂😂 I honestly still might if I can’t get an appt here soon!
Thank you, love this series. I’ve done two chemical peels (VI peel) in the past year. Would love to do more and if I can do them at home would really be affordable and convenient. I looking for anti-aging and hyperpigmentation relief. Looking forward to more content on this topic.🥰🙌🏽
I'm scheduled for a VI Peel in two weeks...did it work for you?
But don't they last a long time? Why would you do more than two?
Thank you for this informative video
Very interesting thank you, please do a video of safe home chemical peels for melasma.
I love your videos. Thank you for all the information!!
Thanks so much for watching!
My pleasure! Thanks so much for watching❤️
I am VERY excited for this series❤️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤️I have a question Dr. Stephens. I’m in school to obtain my esthetic license. Some of my classmates were talking about a skin analysis program or software but I believe it is only offered via Dermalogica sponsorship to those school whom use in their kits. Would you happen to know this program? They also said it comes with an iPad that is already loaded on there. We use PCA & Helina Andre in our clinic and we just started the peel series. My 1st peel was last week. I received the Peel No Peel by PCA😊
Hi Dr Alexis! I'm coming to you very soon so I'm going to book an appointment as soon as I can. I don't live by you so I'll travel there, but I can't wait to let you take care of my skin. It's time I'm the client since I'm an esthetician and you're the one person I will trust with my face besides myself.
Can't wait! Thanks so much for trusting in me and see you soon🥰
I am a licensed medical esthetician and I absolutely love this video. I use Cosmelan and Dermamlan in my treatment room and I absolutely agree with it being one of the best options for melasma. Thank you for the knowledge you share with us, looking forward yo your next post!!
I'm new to your channel...and I'm so happy to be here. Do you/office do virtual appointments?
Can u please do a video on dry acne prone skin with some hyperpigmentation also can u do a video on peel/acne pads/ exfoliating pads also thank you for doing this video on chemical peels for us it's very much appreciated and I hope u r having a wonderful day
Really helpful;. thank you ❤
Is there a specific brand you would recommend for best PIH chemical peel or can I use the one you recommended for melasma?
Well explained and great content
Thank you so much for your videos!!
Omg, I saw you sitting in the audience on a judge Judy episode, you were posing for the camera, looking beautiful as always!!!
I love the series you are doing? I, myself see an esthetician not a dermatologist. Can you provide some insight on the products they us as well. My esthetician uses Glymed products as an example. I want to ensure I’m on the right track.
I didn't know that there were so many different kinds of chemical peels. You gave such a thorough, detailed break down of the different ingredients in the various chemical peels. Your knowledge, insight and understanding about this is very much appreciated. I would like to also know your thoughts on Morpheous 8 and Scarlet? Such as if there's research or findings that states that one is more effective than the other? Are they both safe for people of color? And I've recently found out about Micro-coring. But I'm not sure if that would leave scarring on a more melanated skin tone? I'm also glad that you mentioned that chemical peels can help improve KP. Especially since that (and fine hairs on my jaw) is one of the issues I've been dealing with. I went to a Dr's appointment last year and my primary care physician had a new nurse. Somehow we started talking about my wanting to get laser hair removal. She said the previous job that she left was at a medical spa and that I should never get laser hair removal. She said that there was no laser that could be used on someone with my skin tone. That the laser would burn the skin and cause a scar. This was just last year. I think there's a lot of misinformation out there concerning the options that people of color have available to them where chemical peels, lasers, etc are concerned. Which is why I'm thankful for the good and useful information that you provide. (My apologies for the long comment)
Thanks so much and yes I love the Morpheous8
@@DrAlexisStephens I've heard that it's painful but effective. I first heard about it from a TH-cam video where Meagan Good said she gets it done.
I’ve had scarlet before and it’s life changing. My confidence went up after the first treatment. I’m on my 4th session now. Amazing Amazing.
Mourpheous 8 has one more needle then scarlet and penetrates the skin by .5m more then the scarlet. So if you can get your self an appointment with mourspheous 8, you should!!!🫶🏽 scarlet is up there as well, another great option .
Thank you so much for this video.
Would consider coming to the Raleigh/Durham NC area and setup a pop-up office? I can not get enough of you and all the wealth of information you have to share!!❤️
Dr. What do you think about the Melanage Peel ? How effective can it be since there are several types .
The myriad of skin topics that you address makes me feel so comfortable with you, Dr. Stephens. The next time I'm in the Fort Lauderdale area, I am definitely booking a chemical peel with you (probably the end of my trip after all my fun in the sun lol)
Hello doc.. very informative video.. thank you..❤.. there are some herbal active peels .. are they safe for SOC?
Read my mind bc I surely was looking on Groupon for a deal 😩😭 Very informative thank you 🙏🏾
Hello Dr. Alexis. What can you recommend for stubborn acne dark spots
You are amazing! Thank you.
Thank you so much, I'm considering one for some wrinkle starting to show up. I don't want to wait until they are deep.
Hey Dr. 👋🏽 I’m interested in trying the melanx peel, it seems newer. Are you familiar? Would you recommend?
omg I was hoping for a video on which treatments to get. God is good oh. I want to remove this tan on my face so bad
Dr. Alexis, please discuss electrolysis. Thank you!
Thank you for this educational information... I wish you live in Puerto Rico 😭
Hey doctor! Is it OK to use a cleanser containing niacinamide before applying salicylic acid? Same question when it comes to using a moisturizer containing niacinamide after applying salicylic acid? I’ve heard that niacinamide raises the skins pH which makes the salicylic acid unable to effectively penetrate the skin
Can you please do a skin care routine for dry to hydrating skin
Hey, what lasers would you recommend for dark skin with deep acne scars such as box scars and rolling scars!?
Incredible ty ❤!
you're SO BUBBLY and SO PRETTY girly!!
I trust you, your skin flawless🎉

I am really interested in the home chemical peel. My skin has been going crazy lately.
Thank you so much for going into detail of this. Super informative.
Thanks so much for this video. ❤️
