chemical peels & resurfaces
For those looking to revitalise their skin, a chemical peel is an excellent skin-resurfacing or exfoliation treatment that removes the outer layer of the skin (epidermis) leaving a fresh glowing complexion. Through controlled tissue damage, chemical peels encourage the production of elastin and collagen by enhancing the epidermal cell turnover. This treatment promotes scar-less healing and natural collagen reproduction in a clinical and safe setting.
Benefits (vary on product strength):
- Improves the radiance of skin
- Helps to reduce acne by unblocking pores
- Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles caused by sun damage and ageing
- Can help improve the appearance of some skin disorders including acne and rosacea
- Stimulates collagen and elastin production
- Improves the appearance or tone of skin and reduced the appearance of pores
- Reduce visible appearance of pigmentation (hyperpigmentation) and age spots
- Reduces and improves the appearance of scar tissue
- Perfect treatment to combine with Microneedling and Dermaplaning
Does it hurt?
Superficial chemical peels can cause some discomfort but are not designed to be painful. During a chemical peel, most people feel a burning sensation that lasts about five to ten minutes, followed by a stinging sensation. Placing a cool compress on the skin can ease the stinging.
What can I expect?
After your peel you may notice that the skin is more red than usual for two hours afterwards, you may also notice that the skin feels tight or dry and or you may experience some very mild flaky skin for a few days. It is very important to use a sunscreen during the course of your treatment and for four weeks after to prevent uneven skin tone and excess pigmentation.
How do I know if it’s right for me?
Superficial peels are a good option for many people as they have a gentler effect, require no pain relief, and can be used in more skin types, including darker skin tones, with little or no recovery time. Medium and deep chemical peels cannot be used in darker skin types and it may also take a few weeks for the skin to recover from the effects of the peeling, inflammation and redness.
