Dramatically resurface and revitalize skin with just one easy step. This professional-grade peel targets fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots and hyperpigmentation, enlarged pores, uneven texture/tone, and dull skin for a more radiant, youthful, and healthy-looking complexion. Similar to a dermatologist trusted chemical peel, these powerful pads instantly cleanse, tone and exfoliate for cleaner and brighter looking skin.
These extra strength chemical peel pads are formulated with non-neutralized glycolic acid, the most active and effective form of the ingredient to help dramatically resurface and revitalize skin with just one easy step.
Clinical-Grade AHA/BHA/TCA Blend: Combines 10% non-neutralized glycolic acid with salicylic acid and trichloroacetic acid to promote clearer, brighter skin. You'll likely feel a tingling sensation after using this product because of its potency—and that's a good thing!

*Some redness ad bumps/purging of the skin is normal after application. Skin usually clears in a couple days. This is the skin's natural exfoliation and purging process.*
According to a 30-year-old woman with extra oily, sensitive, and acne-prone skin, the pads from Dermatologist's Choice have played a significant role in clearing her skin. After feeling stuck in a rut and trying numerous products to improve her skin, she turned to Dermatologist's Choice. After using the Peel Pads for a continuous period of two months, she witnessed remarkable results such as clearer skin and free from visible acne.
Best for experienced peelers and those who have used glycolic and TCA acids before. For those with stubborn skin concerns like deep wrinkles and pigmentation this treatment helps clear the pores deeper and faster for better results sooner than mild chem peels.
Dr. B recommends this extra-strength treatment for oily, normal, combination, mature, acne-prone skin types. Expect some downtime with redness and/or bumps as the purging process happens - usually fades in a couple days.

Surface Exfoliation – Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) loosens and dissolves the bonds between dead skin cells, allowing them to shed more efficiently.
Deep Absorption – The formula penetrates into the epidermis and dermis, helping to clear clogged pores, reduce acne, and refine skin texture.
Cellular Renewal – TCA stimulates cell turnover, encouraging fresh, healthy skin cells to replace dull and damaged ones.
Collagen Stimulation – As the skin renews, collagen production increases, improving skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines.
Clinical Studies

Chemical peels, or chemoexfoliation, can improve skin appearance by causing histological changes in the epidermal level by restoring the condition of atrophy and atypia accompanied by new subepidermal collagen deposition. In patients with extensive actinic keratosis and diffuse photodamage, peeling is preferable for individual lesions. Poon F., Kang S., Kang S., Chien A. L. Mechanisms and treatments of photoaging. Photodermatology, Photoimmunology & Photomedicine. 2014;31(2):65–74. doi: 10.1111/phpp.12145.
HOW TO USE
After cleansing your skin and toweling it dry, swipe the pad across your face, neck, and chest. You may notice a tingling sensation, which is normal. Start by using this product once a week in the evening and increase usage as your skin builds up tolerance.
Tingle is normal, apply moisturizer if the sensation is too much. In the morning, apply Facial Enhancement Cream or Ultra Anti-Aging Cream and sunscreen.
