Chemical Peels
Chemical Peeling removes damaged areas on the surface of the skin through an accelerated form of exfoliation induced by the use of chemical products. It can be used to remove fine lines and wrinkles and surface pigmentation and improve uneven skin tone, acne scarring and active acne. Skin appears healthier, plumper, and tighter.
What can I expect after treatment?
After treatment you will experience an ongoing improvement in skin appearance and texture, softening of fine lines, diminishing of coarse lines, increased smoothness in skin texture, mild to moderate levelling of acne scars, lightening of pigmentation irregularities, an increase in the skins natural glow or radiance and minimisation of pore size.
Generally after a peel your face simply feels cleaner, or maybe tighter or drier with minimal change in appearance.
We have a vast range of skin peels, and have listed some of the more popular types
Lactic Acid Resurfacer This treatment from Image Skincare is appropriate for sensitive skin, hyperpigmentation, darker skin tones or for someone new to peels to “jump start” their skin. Lactic acid leaves your skin smoother, brighter and more hydrated. Alpha Peptide Resurfacer When including the enzyme hydrating gel mask – this is the ULTIMATE anti-ageing treatment! High levels of alpha hydroxyl acids allow the peptides in this formula to penetrate deeply and quickly into the skin, offering immediate anti-aging benefits. Collagen is stimulated and the skin is instantly relaxed and smoothed. Peptides are an absolute must for those interested in an effective anti-aging program.
Pumpkin Resurfacer High levels of pumpkin pulp, alpha hydroxy acids and salicylic acid dominate this incredibly smoothing and revitalizing treatment. Your skin will never feel smoother and your pores will disappear! You can expect some sensation with this treatment but don’t worry—it will be worth it! This treatment benefits all skin types and conditions except sensitive skin.
Salicylic Acid Resurfacer This resurfacing treatment is ideal for oily and acne skin types. Salicylic acid moves easily through the pores, clearing them out while reducing inflammation. This treatment effectively combats acne, leaving a wonderfully smooth and clear complexion. It is normal to experience a couple of days of peeling with this treatment and proper home care compliance is necessary to achieve the desired results.
TCA [7%]/Salicylic Acid [2%] Peel This is a professional peel designed to improve overall skin texture and tone; very good for the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles and puffiness under the eyes, and particularly good for photodamaged skin and comedonal acne. Appropriate for all skin types, it dissolves the top layer of the stratum corneum and peeling takes place over a few days.
