Chemical peels are a transformative skin treatment that can address various skin conditions, including acne, melasma, and scarring. They exfoliate damaged outer layers, encourage new cell growth, and reveal fresher, healthier skin. They can improve rough texture and precancerous lesions, making them a versatile option for patients seeking clearer, revitalised skin.
Chemical peels are a skin-resurfacing treatment that involves applying a chemical solution to the skin, causing the outermost layers to exfoliate and eventually peel off. This controlled exfoliation removes damaged skin cells, promoting the growth of new, healthier skin underneath. Chemical peels come in varying strengths—light, medium, and deep—each targeting different layers of the skin depending on the desired results and specific skin concerns. They are commonly used to treat issues like fine lines, acne scars, sun damage, uneven pigmentation, and rough texture. As the skin heals after a peel, it appears smoother, brighter, and rejuvenated, making chemical peels a popular option for enhancing overall skin tone and texture.
Our commitment to using chemical peels not just for cosmetic purposes but as a therapeutic approach to address medical skin concerns that impact patients’ well-being. Our chemical peel treatments are carefully selected and tailored to treat specific conditions, such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, melasma, and acne, which often require a more medically focused solution
By targeting the root causes of these conditions, we aim to provide relief, improve skin health, and restore confidence. Our skilled team assesses each patient’s unique skin needs, ensuring that the treatment promotes healing, reduces symptoms, and ultimately enhances quality of life through a medically driven approach to chemical peels.
– Improved Skin Texture : Smooth out rough patches and improve the overall texture of your skin.
– Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for a more youthful look.
– Acne Treatment: Effectively reduce acne breakouts and prevent future blemishes.
– Sun Damage Repair: Diminish sun spots and hyperpigmentation caused by sun exposure.
– Even Skin Tone: Address uneven skin tone and discoloration for a more balanced complexion.
Mildest option, using gentle acids like glycolic or salicylic acid to exfoliate the outermost layer of skin. They’re ideal for refreshing the complexion, improving mild discoloration, and treating rough texture with minimal downtime.
Penetrate deeper into the skin, typically using trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to target more noticeable issues such as acne scars, deeper wrinkles, and moderate sun damage. Recovery for medium peels takes a bit longer, often involving some redness and peeling.
Provide the most dramatic results, reaching the lower layers of the skin to treat severe sun damage, deep wrinkles, and even precancerous growths. Using stronger acids like phenol, deep peels require a longer recovery time but offer profound, lasting improvements for advanced skin concerns.

Your journey with us for chemical peel treatment begins with a personalised consultation, where we discuss your skin concerns, goals, and expectations. Our experienced practitioner will assess your skin type and determine the most suitable peel strength and formulation to address your specific needs, whether it’s for brightening, smoothing texture, or treating concerns like pigmentation or fine lines. We take the time to explain the procedure, what to expect during and after treatment, and answer any questions you may have, ensuring you feel fully prepared and confident.
Chemical peels, while effective, come with certain risks and potential side effects that vary depending on the peel’s strength. Superficial peels are generally well-tolerated and may cause only minor side effects, such as temporary redness, dryness, and mild peeling. These effects typically subside within a few days. Medium and deep peels, however, can have more pronounced side effects, including redness, swelling, and prolonged peeling, lasting several days to weeks as the skin undergoes deeper renewal.
At our clinic, we stand out by combining advanced treatments to achieve the best possible outcomes for your unique medical and aesthetic needs. By integrating therapies like microneedling, exosome therapy, laser treatments, and other medical solutions, we create customised, multi-layered approaches designed to target multiple skin concerns effectively. This combination approach allows us to address everything from skin texture and collagen production to pigmentation, fine lines, and deeper rejuvenation needs, delivering results that a single treatment might not achieve on its own. Our experienced team tailors each combination to suit your individual goals, ensuring a comprehensive, results-driven experience that promotes lasting skin health and revitalisation.
