What is a Medium Chemical Peel?
A medium chemical peel uses a stronger acid, most often trichloroacetic acid (TCA) at a moderate concentration, sometimes layered over a Jessner's solution, to remove the upper and part of the middle layers of skin. It treats moderate sun damage, melasma, fine lines, acne scarring, and uneven tone more aggressively than a light peel.
The peel itself takes 15 to 30 minutes and causes a stinging, hot sensation. Unlike a light peel, you will visibly peel and shed skin for about five to seven days, looking sunburned then flaky before fresh skin emerges. Most people take a few days of social downtime. Results, including brighter, smoother, more even skin, build over two to four weeks.
Medium peels carry a higher risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation, especially on medium to deep skin tones, so provider experience and proper pre-treatment (sunscreen, sometimes a prep regimen) matter. Often a series or a single deeper session is used depending on goals.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a medium chemical peel cost in San Francisco?
A medium chemical peel in San Francisco typically costs $350 to $1,155 per session. Larger areas and recommended prep regimens add to the cost. the San Francisco Bay Area carries some of the highest commercial rents and most in-demand practitioners in the country, pushing rates above the national median.
How long is downtime after a medium peel?
Plan for about five to seven days of visible peeling. Skin looks red or sunburned for a day or two, then flakes and sheds before fresh skin appears. Many people take a few days of social downtime and stay out of the sun.
Is a medium peel safe for darker skin tones?
Medium peels carry a higher risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation on medium to deep skin tones. They can be done safely with the right acid choice, conservative strength, careful pre-treatment, and an experienced provider, but many providers prefer gentler options for darker skin.
