1. The BEST peel for acne scars is a phenol peel. However, this peel is so potent that you have to be hospitalized in order to obtain it. But it sounds to me as if your main problem are red and brown marks. For these, a couple of IPL treatments will be much better for you than any of the offerred peels.
2. When considering chemical peels for acne, it is important to speak to a cosmetic surgeon who is trained and experienced at these types of treatments. Alphahydroxy acids (AHAs) and Betahydroxy acids (BHAs) are two of the mildest formulations used in chemical peels for acne and other skin imperfections. Some chemical peels for acne also include salicylic acid, which is often very effective in treating acne. Lighter chemical peels for acne do not generally require a lot of downtime, though it is normal for patients to experience mild redness, irritation, and crusting which will subside as the body adjusts to treatment. Lighter chemical peels for acne usually require that treatments be repeated every six weeks or so.
