The Perfect Peel is a revolutionary peel that will transform your skin into looking younger, healthier and clearer in just one week, according to the manufacturers.
It is distributed in the UK and Europe by Medica Forte. The Perfect Peel is self-limiting and can be used on all skin types and requires no pre-peel skin preparation. The process takes less than 15 minutes and is virtually pain-free.
The Perfect Peel is founded on a key anti-ageing ingredient never before used in a chemical peel: Glutathione.
Glutathione is the ultimate antioxidant, penetrating deep into the cellular level of the skin to fight oxidative damage and is the anti-ageing answer to premature wrinkling. Glutathione is a very simple molecule that is produced naturally all the time in our bodies.
It is made from glycine, glutamic acid and cystine and is extremely beneficial to us.
Glutathione has been used as an alternative to hydroquinone, as it appears to behave in a similar way, if not better, but without all the potential side effects that can occur with hydroquinone.
Glutathione protects the cells in our body from harmful toxins. It works by clearing the body of free radicals and toxins that can lead to skin problems like hyperpigmentation and melasma, as well as more common concerns like sun or age spots.
Through its ability to protect our cells from those same free radicals, skin whitening is a side effect.
What Does The Peel Contain?
The Perfect Peel blends glutathione, kojic acid, TCA (trichloroacetic acid), retinoic acid, salicylic acid, phenol, and a blend of minerals and vitamins, including vitamin C.
Is This a Superficial, Medium or Deep Peel?

What Skin Problems Does it Claim to Treat?
The perfect peel can improve the overall tone and texture of your skin, lighten and brighten your skin, remove or reduce Sun damage and age spots, reduce pore size and soften fine lines and wrinkles, reduce or eliminate hyperpigmentation and acne scars, improve acne skin conditions and melasma, stimulate the production of collagen resulting in firmer skin, slow down the ageing process and help prevent wrinkles.
The perfect peel is most commonly applied to the face, neck, chest, back and hands.

The skin is degreased using alcohol or acetone. The Perfect Peel is applied in 3 passes without neutralising, and left on the skin for 6-8 hours, then washed off, or left on the skin overnight.
To follow The Perfect Peel, you are given an individual home treatment pack. This pack contains 2 retinol wipes to be applied on nights 1 and 2, and a vitamin C moisturiser to assist the peeling process and enhance your results.
For ‘normal’ skin The Perfect Peel can be applied 2-3 times a year. For more stubborn conditions, The Perfect Peel can be applied at monthly intervals. A series of 2-3 treatments applied once every 4 weeks will allow for optimal results for more severe skin conditions such as Melasma and active acne.
