Chemoexfoliation, or chemical peeling, is a procedure used to improve specific cutaneous conditions through the controlled stratum corneum removal.

Chemoexfoliation, compared to physical or mechanical exfoliation, has evident advantages such as:
- Major efficacy
- Major efficiency
- Easier execution of procedure
- Versatility: use of organic acids of various natures for the treatment of different cutaneous problems.
