Chemical peels are advanced skin resurfacing treatments designed to improve skin tone, texture, and clarity by encouraging controlled exfoliation of the outer skin layers. By removing damaged or dead skin cells, chemical peels stimulate cellular renewal and collagen production, resulting in fresher, smoother, and healthier-looking skin.
Chemical peels can be tailored to address a wide range of skin concerns, from dullness and uneven tone to acne, pigmentation, and early signs of ageing. Depending on the formulation used, peels can work at superficial or medium depths, allowing treatments to be customised to individual skin needs and tolerance levels.
This versatility makes chemical peels suitable for many skin types and concerns, either as a standalone treatment or as part of a comprehensive skin rejuvenation programme. With the correct peel selection and professional application, results are effective, controlled, and progressive.
Chemical peels use carefully formulated acidic solutions that are applied to the skin to break down the bonds between dead skin cells. This controlled exfoliation triggers the skin’s natural renewal process, allowing healthier, new skin cells to rise to the surface. As the skin regenerates, texture becomes smoother, tone more even, and overall skin quality improves.
Different types of peels work at varying depths within the skin. Superficial peels target the outermost layers for gentle exfoliation and glow enhancement, while medium-depth peels penetrate deeper to address pigmentation, acne scarring, and fine lines. By selecting the appropriate peel type, the treatment can be precisely tailored to individual concerns and skin tolerance.
Chemical peels can be customised for many skin types. Your practitioner will select the appropriate peel formulation based on your skin condition and concerns.
Some peels cause visible flaking, while others result in minimal peeling. The level of peeling depends on the type and strength of the peel used.
A course of treatments is often recommended for optimal results. Your practitioner will advise a personalised treatment plan.
Makeup can usually be worn after 24 hours, depending on the strength of the peel and skin sensitivity.
Yes. Chemical peels work well alongside microneedling, injectables, and skincare treatments to enhance overall skin rejuvenation.
The skin may appear slightly red or feel tight. Depending on the strength of the peel, mild flaking or dryness may occur over the following days.
As the skin renews itself, tone and texture begin to improve. Pigmentation appears lighter, pores look more refined, and the complexion becomes brighter.
With repeated treatments, skin quality continues to improve, showing clearer tone, smoother texture, and reduced signs of ageing. Maintenance peels help sustain results long-term.
