Everything You Need to Know about Chemical Peels

Benefits of Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are a highly effective method to rejuvenate the skin, offering numerous benefits for a refreshed and youthful appearance. By gently applying a chemical solution to the face, the outer layer of skin is removed, eliminating dead cells and promoting the regrowth of new, healthy skin. This treatment can significantly reduce age spots, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation, resulting in a more even skin tone. It also stimulates collagen production, diminishing fine lines and wrinkles for a firmer, smoother complexion. Additionally, chemical peels improve skin texture, making it softer and helping to treat acne by unclogging pores. Post-treatment, patients may experience tenderness and increased sensitivity, which is a normal part of the healing process and essential for achieving optimal results.

Tailored Treatments to achieve desired results

Did you know you can have customised treatment in chemical peels, ensuring that patients receive tailored care based on their specific skin concerns or conditions?

Chemical peels are tailored to each patient's unique skin type and condition. Whether addressing age spots, hyperpigmentation, acne, or fine lines, each treatment plan is personalised to ensure the most effective results. This bespoke approach maximises the benefits of the peel, promoting healthier, more radiant skin for every individual.

You can choose from superficial, medium and deep peels, which penetrate to different levels of the skin. Depending on your choice, the results will last different periods of time – but the deeper you go, the longer the recovery time and the higher the chance of side effects.

After the peel, your face might feel more tender and be more sensitive than usual. Good aftercare of your skin is vital when you have any treatment, which is why I always include a gentle cleanser, moisturiser and SPF sunscreen in the price of my peel treatments. This regime is specially tailored to help your skin to recover and achieve the best results.

Your skin will begin to peel between three and five days after treatment; as the old skin peels away, healthy new skin is revealed – giving you that much-desired ‘glow’.

Skin Peels start from £180 but prices vary per clinic.
