Chemical Peels

Skin renewal at its most refined.

About Chemical Peels

At Shookra, our chemical peels are precision skin resets — not just exfoliation. These clinically formulated solutions work by removing damaged outer layers and stimulating deeper cell turnover. Whether you're looking to smooth texture, fade pigmentation, or brighten overall tone, our doctor-prescribed peels are calibrated to your skin condition, sensitivity, and goals.

We offer a full spectrum of peels — from light glycolic or mandelic treatments for glow, to medical-grade formulations for acne, melasma, and aging skin. Every peel protocol includes detailed skin prep and recovery care for safe, visible, and lasting results.

Cosmelan: The Melasma hero peel

Medical-grade depigmentation at a cellular level.
Cosmelan: The Melasma hero peel
Cosmelan is Shookra’s go-to peel for melasma, age spots, and post-inflammatory pigmentation. Clinically proven and globally trusted, this powerful multi-stage protocol uses melanogenesis inhibitors to block pigment formation and correct discoloration deep in the skin. Unlike surface-level peels, Cosmelan regulates melanin production at the root — making it ideal for hormonal pigment issues, resistant dark spots, and sun-damaged skin.
WHY COSMELAN STANDS OUT
  • Works on all skin tones, including darker complexions
  • Reduces recurrence of pigmentation with proper maintenance
  • Paired with at-home protocol to extend results safely
BEST FOr
  • Melasma and hormonal patches
  • Deep sun damage and pigmentation
  • Uneven skin tone resistant to other treatments

Did a Hydrafacial at Shookra yesterday with the beauty therapist Boutaina and I’m honestly so impressed. My skin felt super clean, hydrated, and just... fresh. The clinic is gorgeous, the staff were lovely, and everything felt really professional. You can tell they know what they’re doing.



Definitely one of the best facials I’ve had in Dubai — perfect if you're looking for deep cleansing, glow, or just a proper skin reset. Will 100% be back.

Absolutely loved my experience at Aesthetic and Longevity Clinic. The ambience is luxe and calming, the staff warm and welcoming. I went in for the Salmon DNA treatment with Dr. Bushra, who was incredibly gentle and thorough — the procedure was smooth, painless, and so well explained. Can’t wait to see the results!
