Reveal Your Radiance: Professional Chemical Peels
Are you ready to unveil a brighter, smoother, and more youthful complexion? Chemical peels are a powerful, non-invasive cosmetic treatment designed to rejuvenate your skin by safely and effectively removing its damaged outer layers. Scientifically formulated to address a wide range of skin concerns, a professional chemical peel can dramatically improve your skin's texture, tone, and overall appearance.
What are Chemical Peels?
A chemical peel involves the application of a carefully selected acidic solution to the skin. This solution works by creating a controlled exfoliation, encouraging the skin to shed dead or damaged cells. As the old skin peels away, it stimulates the growth of new, healthy skin cells and boosts collagen production, revealing a fresher, clearer, and more radiant complexion underneath.

Our Advanced Chemical Peel Formulations:
We offer a range of medical-grade chemical peels, customized to your unique skin type and concerns. During your consultation, our experts will determine the most suitable peel depth and formulation for optimal results.
1. Superficial Peels (Light Peels)
- Target: Outermost layer of the epidermis.
- Benefits: Gentle exfoliation, improves minor discoloration, refines texture, brightens skin. Ideal for a quick refresh.
- Ingredients Often Used:
- Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs):
- Glycolic Acid: Derived from sugar cane, excellent for general exfoliation, fine lines, and brightening.
- Lactic Acid: Derived from milk, milder than glycolic, ideal for sensitive or dehydrated skin, also offers hydration.
- Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs):
- Salicylic Acid: Oil-soluble, ideal for acne-prone skin, penetrates pores to reduce breakouts and blackheads.
- Downtime: Minimal to none (slight redness, mild flaking).
2. Medium Peels
- Target: Epidermis and upper layers of the dermis.
- Benefits: More dramatic improvement for moderate lines, deeper sun damage, significant hyperpigmentation, and acne scars.
- Ingredients Often Used:
- Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA): A highly effective solution for more pronounced skin concerns, offering significant rejuvenation.
- Jessner's Solution: A blend of salicylic acid, lactic acid, and resorcinol, effective for acne, sun damage, and pigmentation.
- Downtime: Several days to a week (redness, swelling, more noticeable peeling).
We do not typically offer deep peels due to their intensity and extended recovery, referring clients to specialized medical professionals if this level of treatment is deemed necessary.
Who Can Benefit from Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels are ideal for individuals looking to improve:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sun damage (photodamage)
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Hyperpigmentation (melasma, sun spots, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation)
- Acne and superficial acne scarring
- Dull or lackluster skin
The Professional Treatment Process:
- Consultation: A thorough skin analysis will be performed by our certified skin care professional to assess your skin type, concerns, and suitability for treatment. We will discuss your aesthetic goals and create a personalized peel plan.
- Preparation: You may be advised to use specific skincare products (e.g., retinoids, hydroquinone) for a few weeks prior to your peel to prepare your skin and enhance results.
- The Peel Application: Your skin will be cleansed, and the chosen chemical solution will be carefully applied. You may experience a tingling, warming, or stinging sensation during this phase, which is normal.
- Neutralization/Removal: The peel will be left on for a specific duration, then neutralized or removed as per the product's protocol.
- Post-Peel Care: Immediately after, soothing balms and sunscreen will be applied. Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided to ensure proper healing and optimize your results.
What to Expect During & After Your Peel:
- During: Mild to moderate tingling, warmth, or stinging sensation is common.
- Immediately After: Skin may appear red, flushed, or feel tight, similar to a sunburn.
- Days 1-7 (Recovery): Depending on the peel depth, you will experience varying degrees of redness, dryness, and peeling. Flaking typically begins a few days after the peel and can last up to a week.
- Results: Once the peeling process is complete, you will reveal fresher, smoother, and more radiant skin. Optimal results are often achieved through a series of peels spaced several weeks apart, as recommended by your specialist.
Important Safety & Aftercare Guidelines:
- Professional Application ONLY: Chemical peels should never be attempted at home. They require expert knowledge and precision to avoid adverse effects.
- Strict Sun Protection: Your skin will be highly sensitive to the sun post-peel. Daily application of a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ is absolutely mandatory, along with protective clothing and limiting sun exposure.
- Hydration: Keep your skin well-hydrated with gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizers.
- Avoid Picking: Do not pick or pull at peeling skin, as this can lead to scarring or hyperpigmentation.
- Contraindications: Chemical peels are not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, those with active cold sores, open wounds, certain skin conditions (e.g., eczema, psoriasis in the treatment area), or individuals using certain medications (e.g., isotretinoin, certain topical retinoids). A full medical history will be taken during your consultation.
