Healthy, radiant skin is something many of us strive for, but daily exposure to pollution, stress, and sunlight can leave our complexion dull or uneven.
A skin peel offers a professional solution designed to revitalise and restore your skin's natural glow. By gently exfoliating the outer layers, this treatment encourages renewal from within and helps reveal a brighter, smoother, and more balanced surface.
In this guide, we'll explore what skin peels are, how they work, and what to expect before and after your treatment. You'll also learn about the different peel options available and the benefits they bring to your overall skin health.
A skin peel, also known as a chemical peel, is a clinical-grade exfoliation treatment designed to encourage the skin to shed its outermost layers, revealing fresh, healthy cells beneath. The process involves applying a carefully selected chemical solution to the skin, which stimulates natural regeneration and collagen production.
Skin peels can effectively target concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scarring, pigmentation, congestion, and uneven tone. Each peel is adjusted to suit individual skin types and sensitivities, ensuring a gentle yet effective transformation.
Not all peels are the same.
The strength and depth of exfoliation vary depending on your skin goals, comfort level, and the desired results.
Superficial peels are the gentlest option, providing a mild exfoliation that helps refresh dull or tired skin. They focus on improving skin texture, tone, and minor imperfections while leaving the skin with a healthy glow. These are ideal for those new to chemical peels or looking for minimal downtime.
Medium peels work more deeply within the skin to address moderate issues, such as fine lines, age spots, and uneven pigmentation. They help to refine texture, boost radiance, and encourage long-term rejuvenation. With slightly longer recovery time, they offer more visible and lasting results.
Deep peels are an advanced treatment designed to target severe signs of ageing, deep wrinkles, and significant sun damage. They penetrate further into the skin for dramatic results, improving tone and elasticity.
Due to their intensity, these peels require professional supervision and structured aftercare for optimal recovery and results. Each peel is carefully selected and performed, ensuring the treatment supports your skin's unique needs and restores its natural vitality.
Skin peels go far beyond creating a temporary glow.
They rejuvenate your skin from within by supporting natural regeneration, improving texture, and boosting radiance over time. The results are not only visible but also lasting, as the treatment helps your skin function more efficiently and maintain balance.
Like many treatments, there are a range of benefits you can experience. Below, you'll find the key benefits that make skin peels one of the most effective ways to reveal smoother, brighter, and healthier-looking skin.
By removing dull surface cells, skin peels reveal a softer, more radiant texture beneath. The complexion appears instantly refreshed, smoother to the touch, and more luminous overall.
Over time, regular treatments encourage healthier skin cell turnover, helping maintain long-term brightness and evenness. This renewed surface allows light to reflect more evenly, resulting in a naturally glowing complexion that looks and feels revitalised from within.
Uneven pigmentation, sun damage, and acne scars are visibly reduced, leaving a balanced, even skin tone that glows with vitality. Skin peels work by targeting areas of discolouration and stimulating fresh cell growth to replace dull or damaged cells.
With consistent treatments, the complexion becomes more uniform, and stubborn dark spots gradually fade, helping skin appear clearer, calmer, and visibly more radiant.
Peels stimulate natural collagen production, softening fine lines and wrinkles while enhancing firmness and elasticity for youthful-looking skin. This improved collagen response helps restore structure and strength to the skin, reducing the appearance of ageing while improving its ability to retain moisture.
Over several sessions, skin looks plumper and more refined, with smoother contours and renewed elasticity.
For those prone to congestion or breakouts, skin peels help to clear pores and regulate oil production, resulting in smoother, clearer skin.
They deeply cleanse and remove impurities that can contribute to blocked pores and blemishes, leaving the skin purified and balanced. The result is a visibly calmer, more even complexion that feels fresh and renewed after each treatment.
Following a peel, skincare products penetrate deeper into the skin, increasing their effectiveness and maximising results between treatments. By removing the barrier of dead cells, the skin is more receptive to active ingredients such as antioxidants, hydrators, and serums.
This improved absorption supports longer-lasting hydration, nourishment, and glow, helping to extend the benefits of each professional peel well beyond the treatment room.
Your skin peel experience begins with a professional consultation, during which we carefully assess your skin to determine the most suitable treatment for your specific needs. During this stage, we consider factors such as skin type, tone, and sensitivity to ensure comfort and safety.
Once the appropriate peel is chosen, the skin is cleansed and prepped to remove impurities before the solution is applied. You may experience a mild tingling sensation as the active ingredients gently exfoliate the skin's surface.
After a short period, the solution is neutralised and followed by soothing skincare to calm and hydrate the skin.
The treatment typically takes less than an hour, and you can return to your day with a fresh, renewed glow. Over the following days, light flaking may occur as the skin naturally sheds, revealing brighter, healthier layers beneath.
After a skin peel, proper aftercare is crucial for maintaining the results and protecting your newly rejuvenated skin. For several days following treatment, it's important to keep the skin hydrated using gentle, non-active products and to avoid direct sun exposure.
Daily SPF is a must, as the skin becomes more sensitive to UV rays. Refraining from exfoliation, harsh ingredients, or makeup for the first 24–48 hours helps prevent irritation.
Hydration also plays a crucial role in recovery, both topically and through the consumption of plenty of water. As the skin naturally sheds, avoid picking or peeling it prematurely, allowing the new layer to emerge undisturbed.
With mindful care and our professional guidance, your skin will continue to improve in tone, clarity, and radiance long after your treatment.
