At Sonia Cosmetic Clinic in North York, chemical peels use a targeted acid solution to remove dull, damaged outer layers of skin and reveal a brighter, more even complexion underneath. A simple, effective way to reset your skin's tone and texture. Performed by Maryam, a certified medical aesthetician with over 30 years of experience.
Pricing

Does Your Skin Need to Exfoliate Deeper?
Everyday cleansers and scrubs only exfoliate the very surface of the skin. A chemical peel goes deeper. Here's when clients typically book one.
If several of these sound familiar, a chemical peel can give your skin the deeper reset that everyday products can't achieve on their own.
About the Treatment
A chemical peel uses a targeted acid solution, applied by a trained professional, to gently remove the outermost, damaged layers of skin. As these layers lift away, they take dullness, uneven pigmentation, and rough texture with them, revealing fresher, more evenly toned skin underneath.
Beyond the immediate exfoliation, chemical peels also accelerate your skin's natural cell turnover process, which tends to slow down with age. This means continued benefits even after the visible peeling (if any) has finished, as your skin regenerates more efficiently for weeks afterward.
At Sonia Cosmetic Clinic, Maryam selects the peel formula and strength based on your specific skin type, tone, and concern, whether that's general dullness, sun damage, mild acne scarring, or fine lines. This customization is what makes the difference between a peel that just exfoliates and one that actually addresses your concern.
The treatment itself is quick, typically 20 to 30 minutes, making it easy to fit into a lunch break with little to no downtime for lighter peels.

Meet Your Specialist
Maryam has performed chemical peels on every skin type and tone over her 30+ year career, which means she knows exactly how to select the right strength and formula to get results without overdoing it. She takes the time to explain what your skin actually needs rather than defaulting to the strongest option available.
Her experience means fewer surprises for you — she can predict how your specific skin type is likely to respond before the peel is ever applied.
"A great peel isn't about how much it peels — it's about choosing the right strength for that person's skin and goals."
