Why would I have a chemical peel?

Peels can help to manage skin conditions, but the main reason patients have a chemical peel is to even out the texture and pigmentation of the skin. Chemical peels stimulate skin cell regeneration which results in a smoother overall skin surface.

The ZO Stimulator peel

The ZO Stimulator peel as its name might suggest, is a milder form of peel designed to stimulate cell turnover. It is classed as a superficial peel. This peel, although classed as mild, is very effective in the stripping of dead skin cells and has no downtime attached.

The Definesse Classic Peel

The classic peel is excellent for the fading of superficial scars, fine lines and wrinkles and other skin imperfections. It combines Salicylic acid, Pyruvic acid, Retinoic acid for effective results.

The Definesse Lightening Peel

This peel might be the best option for you if you have signs of melasma, melanotic pigmentation and photo-ageing marks and other signs of skin discolouration. It contains the same ingredients as the classic peel and two other ingredients to help with the lightening of hyperpigmentation.

Skin Peel FAQs

Ingredients vary from peel to peel but the main ingredients would be a combination of types of acids. Examples of these acids are glycolic, salicylic, citric, pyruvic and retinoic.

We use the ZO Stimulator peel, the Definesse classic peel, and the Definesse Lightening peel.

After a cleansing of the skin a pre-peel solution is applied to the area with the use of gauze or cotton wool. This solution stays on your skin. After covering your eyes and hair the selected peel is then  applied to your skin using a brush or sponge. A couple of minutes later a white coating will appear as any solvents present in the peel evaporate. You may experience a tingling or tightening feeling at this point.The peel stays on the skin for a specific amount of time before it is neutralised and removed. A cool compress is then applied to the skin.

Depending on the peel you had you will start to see new, healthy skin after approximately 7-14 days.

We use 3 different types of peels so downtime might vary slightly. In general you might experience some redness and skin peeling for up to 48 hours following the peel procedure.
