Chemical Peels

Suitability for a chemical peel will depend on the extent of your skin concerns and your skin colour and type.

We’ll carefully assess your skin during a consultation to determine whether a peel will be appropriate and, if so, what type of solution will work best.

All areas of the face can be treated with skin/chemical peels, with more care and specific ingredients needed for the sensitive skin around the eyes.

The neck, hands, back and décolletage are also popular peel treatment areas, as these are often affected by sun damage and signs of ageing.

Prior to a peel, we may recommend certain skincare products to help prepare your skin for the procedure.

At your appointment, we will then cleanse your skin to remove all traces of make-up and debris.

The peel will then be gently applied to the treatment areas before being left for an appropriate amount of time to get to work. We’ll then apply a neutralising solution or wash to remove the solution from the skin before talking you through exactly what we’ve done and the results that we can see.

Finally, we’ll remind you of aftercare guidance, and invite you for your review appointment.

As the ingredients contained with skin/chemical peels can efficiently exfoliate dead skin cells and address multiple skin concerns, you can expect glowing and rejuvenated skin following treatment.

Of course, results will depend on the extent of your original skin concerns, the depth of the chemical peel and the strength of ingredients we use. A series of treatments is always recommended for optimal results.

You may feel a slight tingling sensation as a skin/chemical is applied, but it generally doesn’t hurt.

We’ll recommend specific aftercare to ease side effects following your skin/chemical peel treatment.

Yes, we will often recommend a combination treatment approach to address all your skin and ageing concerns.

Medical grade skincare before and after is essential, while anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, Profhilo, Laser Genesis and IPL can all boost results. Each treatment will be appropriately scheduled for optimum results.
