Chemical Peels

What is a Chemical Peel?

A Chemical peel is a treatment used to improve skin texture and tone. An acid is applied to the skin to lower the pH, which loosens the connections between dead skin cells, including exfoliation and stimulating new cell growth. This process causes superficial layers of dead skin to peel off, to reveal a smoother and more radiant complexion.

Using a variety of medical grade ingredients such as Salicylic acid, Lactic acid and Vitamin A, our highly trained Aestheticians will create your bespoke hyper-customised treatment based on your specific skin concerns, whether it be ageing, pigmentation, rosacea or acne.

Chemical Peels have been used dating back to Ancient Egypt, according to some sources, Cleopatra used sour milk to improve the appearance of her skin.

Chemical Peel Expectations

Beautiful skin doesn’t happen over night, and treatments take time to show results.

A single chemical peel can provide the immediate effect of bright and radiant skin; however, more significant results in treating textural issues, fine lines and inflamed acne could take up to 8 weeks.

At Revitalise SkinCare Clinic we offer Obagi Medical and AlumierMD professional Chemical Peels which are light to medium strength with minimal down time.

We recommend that our patients use home care as directed to enhance results and help heal and soothe the skin post procedure.
