A chemical peel is a clinically proven skin resurfacing procedure in which a carefully selected chemical solution is applied to the skin to exfoliate damaged outer layers, stimulate cellular renewal, and reveal smoother, clearer skin beneath.
Targets the outermost skin layer. Minimal downtime. Ideal for mild pigmentation and dull skin.
Penetrates deeper to address moderate pigmentation, acne scars, and texture irregularities.
Recommended for significant photo-ageing and deeper scarring. Performed under medical supervision.
The skin is cleansed and prepped before the peeling agent is applied. Patients may experience a mild tingling or warm sensation during the session. The procedure typically takes 20-45 minutes depending on the peel depth.
Superficial peels require little to no downtime. Medium and deep peels may involve 3-7 days of skin shedding. Sun protection and a prescribed post-peel regimen are essential to optimise results.
