There are several different types of chemical peels, and they are often classified based on their active ingredients. The following is a description of the most common types of peels and an explanation of what they can accomplish.

Chemical peels involve the application of acidic solutions to the skin. They work by causing exfoliation of the top layer(s) of skin. In doing so, they remove some of the pigmentation and signs of sun damage and give the skin a "fresher" appearance. They can also unclog pores and stimulate collagen production. There are several different types of peels, and their effectiveness and side effect profile depend on their ingredients, concentration, and, in some cases, the length of time that the peeling solution is left on the skin.

Chemical peels are usually classified by the depth of peeling they cause. These cause peeling in the top layer(s) of the skin (the stratum corneum and the epidermis) and sometimes into the upper portion of the second layer (the dermis). 

Why Get A Chemical Peel?

Chemical peels are most frequently used to "freshen" the skin, as an anti-aging treatment, and to improve acne and/or skin discolouration.

We highly recommend a course of 3 or more treatments to ensure optimal results.

Light peels may result in a mild pinking of the skin for 1-3 days, followed by mild skin peeling. In some cases, the peeling is so mild that it may not be noticeable or may only be appreciated as a subtle dryness of the skin. Medium depth peels may take 7-10 days to heal with more noticeable redness and peeling. 

To minimise the risk of complications, you must carefully follow the post-peel instructions our Skin Therapist gives you. It is imperative to protect your skin from the sun after any chemical peel. The skin will be more sensitive to burning, and sun exposure during this time can cause skin darkening (hyperpigmentation), which can be very slow to resolve. This is more common in people with darker skin types, who may want to avoid chemical peels in the summer unless they are confident they can religiously protect their skin from the sun while it heals.

In general, several chemical peel treatments are required to achieve the desired results. Expect 3-6 treatments, often 2-4 weeks apart. In many cases, maintenance treatments are needed to maintain the improvement.

Tips For Getting the Best Results From A Peel and Avoiding Complications:
If you are prone to cold sores, notify your doctor; they may suggest you take an antiviral medication before having a medium-depth peel. Avoid any treatments if you have an active cold sore.

Notify your Skin Therapist if you have taken isotretinoin (Accutane) within the past year, or if you have a history of abnormal scarring.

Do not peel, pick or rub at your skin after a peel.

You may need to stop some skincare products (such as vitamin A creams) before a chemical peel and then wait to re-start them until your skin has healed. Tell our Skin Therapist, which skincare products you are using.

Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun after a peel. Protect it with a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. Not doing so may result in skin discolouration, mainly if the peel is performed in the summer.

Our Skin Therapist will recommend the best moisturiser which will need to be applied 2-3 times per day after a superficial chemical peel; this will help with some of the dryness the peeling solution causes.

Follow any other post-peel instructions our Skin Therapist gives you carefully.

In Summary:

Clinical Skin peels are a fast way to improve the skin’s texture and tone by safely removing the damaged outer layer of skin.

By removing cellular build-up and stimulating skin regeneration, our customised peels offer measurable results in the improvement of wrinkles and fine lines, sun damage, pigmentation, pore size, acne and oil production. Clinical Skin peels are especially beneficial in the treatment of hyperpigmentation, rosacea, general redness, acne, sun damage and aging.
