I am a 28 year old female. I will have a deep chemical peel treatment. How long does it take to heal from a deep chemical peel?

It really depends on how deep the peel is. Some of the more aggressive peels have healing times of 3-6 weeks. I do not recommend deep chemical peels for the vast majority of patient concerns.
Hi,
While the peeling/swelling may resolve within 1-2 weeks, the redness post-deep chemical peel can last several weeks to a couple of months. It is very important to wear SPF daily, especially post-procedure.
I hope this helps.

It depends on the type of deep peel. Expect 2 weeks at minimum.
