Chemical Peels
What does the treatment involve?

There are various different types of chemical peels which aim to remove pigmentation and resurface the skin, resulting in a dramatically softer, smoother, rejuvenated skin. Enhancing your appearance and your self confidence. Chemical peeling is a technique used to improve the appearance of the skin and it can be used on all areas of the body. They induce exfoliation of the skin through the application of various chemical agents. This is applied to your skin where you may feel a warm and stinging sensation which could last about five to ten minutes. After a period of time we remove the peel and your skin may be slightly pink to red depending on the peel which has been used. We will advise on which peel you require, depending on the condition you are being treated for, and it is suitable for ageing skin, acne scars, melasma, fine lines and wrinkles, sun spots, freckles an uneven skin.
