Skin Peels

Skin peels contain an exfoliating acid to penetrate the top layer (epidermis) of your skin. They remove dead skin cells to encourage new cellular growth.

They speed up the exfoliation process to accelerate skin cell turnover and cause a deliberate peel, so that new skin cells grow back in their place.

Skin peels work well for all age groups and can help support skin rejuvenation for patients undergoing other treatments, such as skin needling.

Our cosmetic grade peels are a clinical treatment that applies only safe solutions to the surface of your skin. They address cells causing skin concerns such as ageing, sun damage, scarring, acne, pigmentation, uneven skin tones, redness, fine lines and wrinkles.

Skin peels are highly recommended because they cater to all skin types. They are soothing, regenerative and are a great way to pamper yourself.

The treatment takes up between 30 – 60 minutes.

This treatment is perfect for people with all different skin types who want to pamper their skin, feel revived and glamorous by focusing on facial skin. This treatment is non-invasive and works to improve the condition of the epidermis (top layer) of your skin.

These treatments are also perfect for people with sensitive skin, cystic acne, stubborn pigmentation, superficial scarring or who want a treatment that can be done more regularly than other skin treatments.

Skin peels can be customised to suit your needs, and have many benefits, such as unifying skin tone, softening wrinkles, reducing pore size and improving the overall texture of the skin.

Prior to treatment, you will need to stop using skin care products at least 5 days before your appointment. During your consultation, your nurse will discuss the varying treatment options available to determine whether a skin peel is going to help you achieve your desired goals for your facial skin and whether it’s right for you. The consultation will also include a discussion about any previous health history you have.

First, your hair will be brushed back from your face to prevent any product touching your hair and your skin is prepared for treatment. Your face is cleansed to remove any dirt, makeup or sweat. A solution will then be applied to your skin containing an exfoliating acid, which might cause a slight stinging sensation while it is on your skin. Once it is removed, a moisturiser will be applied and massaged into your skin for deep rehydration.

You may experience mild swelling and redness for up to a week post treatment. You may also experience some flaking. Aftercare is important to ensure the best results, as well as comfort for you. You should avoid the sun, refrain from wearing makeup and avoid using exfoliants for up to 2 weeks to ensure your skin fully heals and regenerates.
