Hyperpigmentation Chemical Peel in Gurgaon for Post-Acne Marks and Dark Spots
Dark Marks, Faded Safely.
Dr. Jaspreet Kour personally assesses and treats every case of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation at our Golf Course Road, Sector 55 clinic, calibrating each peel to your exact Fitzpatrick skin type. Acne marks, old injury marks, and inflammation-triggered dark spots each respond differently, so your plan is built around what caused yours. You leave the first visit with a clear, doctor-approved roadmap to fading them safely.
Hyperpigmentation in the clinical sense is not the same thing as a suntan or an uneven complexion. It is post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, or PIH, the dark or reddish-brown marks that skin leaves behind after acne lesions heal, after a cut or burn, after a bad wax, or after any inflammation disturbs the skin barrier. Melanin-producing cells overreact to that inflammation and deposit excess pigment right where the damage was, and Indian skin, sitting in the Fitzpatrick III to V range, is genetically more prone to this overreaction than lighter skin types. That is why so many Gurgaon patients walk in with a clear complexion everywhere except the exact spots where an old pimple or scrape used to be.
A chemical peel is one of the most effective, well-evidenced ways to address this specific problem, because it works at the level where the pigment actually sits. Controlled exfoliation accelerates cell turnover, breaks up clustered melanin deposits, and encourages fresh, evenly pigmented skin to surface in its place. This is a more targeted, clinical use of a peel than general brightening, which is why Mediglo grounds hyperpigmentation and post-acne mark cases primarily in Cosmelan Peel, Dermamelan Peel, and Yellow Peel, the three peels on our menu whose real treats-list specifically names hyperpigmentation and post-acne marks.
It is also precisely the condition where unsupervised peeling can backfire. Applying the wrong strength or acid to already-inflamed skin can trigger more PIH instead of clearing it, which is why every peel at Mediglo, from the first consultation to the last follow-up, is personally administered by Dr. Jaspreet Kour rather than handed to a technician. If your concern is closer to general tan or overall dullness rather than defined dark marks left by acne or injury, our Pigmentation Chemical Peel page is the better starting point; this page is built specifically for PIH.

Recommended Options
Best Peels for This Concern
✓Cosmelan Peel:A globally renowned depigmenting peel from Mesoestetic, Spain, often delivered as a one-time programme with structured home maintenance, and one of the most direct answers we offer for stubborn post-acne marks and dark spots.
✓Dermamelan Peel:Considered the strongest peel in the world for pigmentation, this medical-grade Mesoestetic programme is reserved for deeper, more resistant hyperpigmentation that has not responded to lighter approaches.
✓Yellow Peel:A retinol-based, mid-depth peel built for resistant pigmentation and post-acne marks specifically, a good fit for patients who prefer a series of individual sessions over a full depigmenting programme.
The Process
How It Works
Prep and Mapping
Dr. Kour examines your specific dark marks, scores your Fitzpatrick skin type, and traces each mark back to what caused it, whether acne, an old injury, or inflammation, before selecting between Cosmelan, Dermamelan, or Yellow Peel.
Controlled Exfoliation
A medical-grade acid is applied in measured layers directly over the pigmented areas, breaking up the clustered melanin deposits that make post-acne marks and dark spots visible.
Cellular Renewal
The treated skin sheds and rebuilds, stimulating fresh collagen and rebalancing melanin production so new skin surfaces without the old pigment pattern.
Sustained Fade
Marks continue to lighten progressively over 7 to 21 days as the skin completes its renewal cycle, revealing a smoother, more even complexion where the dark spots used to be.
Candidacy
Who It’s For
This page is for anyone dealing with defined dark marks rather than an overall uneven tone, most often the shadow that lingers after a breakout clears, a mark left by an old cut, burn, or insect bite, or spots that darkened after a harsh wax or facial treatment. It suits Gurgaon patients who have already tried creams and serums with limited movement on old marks, as well as those who want a doctor-mapped plan from the very first visit rather than trial and error. Because it is grounded in medical-grade depigmenting peels, it also suits patients with more stubborn, longstanding PIH who need a structured programme rather than a single quick session.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Which chemical peel is best for hyperpigmentation?
Cosmelan and Dermamelan are our go-to depigmenting programmes for stubborn hyperpigmentation, while Yellow Peel works well for post-acne marks treated over a series of sessions; Dr. Kour will confirm which suits your case at consultation.
What is the best peel for hyperpigmentation near me in Gurgaon?
Mediglo’s Golf Course Road, Sector 55 clinic offers doctor-administered Cosmelan, Dermamelan, and Yellow Peel treatments, each personally mapped and applied by Dr. Jaspreet Kour rather than a technician.
Is a chemical peel safe for post-acne marks and hyperpigmentation on Indian skin?
Yes, when performed by a dermatologist. Indian and tanned skin carries a real risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation if peels are done unsupervised, which is exactly why Dr. Kour administers every peel herself.
Can one peel treat post-acne marks and hyperpigmentation together?
Yes, Cosmelan, Dermamelan, and Yellow Peel are all chosen specifically because their real treats-list covers post-acne marks and hyperpigmentation together, so most patients address both in the same programme.
Is this the same as a peel for dark spots?
Chemical peel for dark spots is really the same concern, and our recommended peels for hyperpigmentation are the ones we reach for when dark spots come from acne, injury, or inflammation specifically.
How many sessions will I need to fade my dark marks?
Cosmelan and Dermamelan are typically delivered as a single structured programme with home-care support, while Yellow Peel is usually done across 4 to 6 sessions spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart.
Does a hyperpigmentation chemical peel hurt?
Most patients feel warmth or mild tingling during application rather than pain. Dr. Kour explains the sensation for your specific peel before you begin.
What is the downtime like?
Depigmenting programmes like Cosmelan and Dermamelan involve 5 to 10 days of visible peeling, while Yellow Peel has a shorter, more structured recovery window.
How much does a hyperpigmentation chemical peel cost in Gurgaon?
Individual peel sessions start from Rs 4,500, and signature depigmenting programmes like Cosmelan and Dermamelan start from Rs 50,000. Your exact peel and price are confirmed at consultation.
Is this different from a peel for general pigmentation or tanning?
Yes. This page is built for post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, meaning acne marks and injury-related dark spots specifically, while general tanning and uneven tone are covered on our Pigmentation Chemical Peel page.
How soon will I see my acne marks start to fade?
Skin typically shows a smoother, more even complexion within 7 to 21 days after a session as the renewal cycle completes, with continued fading across the full programme.
Can hyperpigmentation treatment be combined with other treatments at Mediglo?
Yes, peels for hyperpigmentation are often paired with Q-Switch laser, microneedling RF, or skin boosters for patients who want faster, more complete fading.

Priya Nair
I'd tried almost every acne cream before coming to MediGlo. Dr. Kour actually explained why my skin was breaking out instead of just prescribing something — within two months it had calmed down more than it had in years.
K
Karan Mehta
I was nervous about looking "done" after Botox, but the results were subtle and completely natural. Friends noticed I looked well-rested, not different.
S
Sunita Verma
My hair fall had gotten so bad I avoided tying it up in public. Three months into treatment at MediGlo, I'm finally seeing new growth along my hairline.
A
Aisha Khan
The pigmentation on my cheeks had gotten worse every year. The team took the time to actually diagnose what type of melasma I had before starting treatment, which no one had done before.
