What is skin peel treatment ?

Skin peel treatment involves the removal of the top layers of your skin using specially-formulated chemical solutions. When the skin grows back afterwards, it has a more youthful look and feel and is much smoother. There are different kinds of chemical peels, categorised by how deep and intensive they are.

Superficial Chemical Peels

• Cells in the epidermis or top layer of skin are removed
• They are applied and only left on your skin for a short length of time
• You may feel a tight sensation in your skin for a few hours after treatment
• You need to treatment regularly to maintain its effects

Medium Chemical Peels

• Cells from the middle and top layers are both removed
• The chemical solution is applied and left for a short length of time before being removed
• You are likely to feel a stinging or burning sensation while the chemical peel is on your face
• The treated skin may be red or brown in colour for a number of days following treatment
• Your skin may take as long as 6 weeks to return to normal
• You need to have this type of chemical peel treatment as often as 6 to 12 weeks to maintain its effects

Deep Chemical Peels

• These are used to target problems affecting the very deepest layers of your skin
• You may need to have a sedative and local anaesthetic to numb pain you experience
• This chemical peel can be applied directly to your face and left for as much as 30 minutes or even more
• Your blood pressure and heart may be monitored throughout the treatment
• You will experience a degree of discomfort, redness and peeling for a few days after treatment
• Swelling may last as long as 2 weeks after treatment, and redness you experience may last as long as 3 months
• As deeper and intensive chemical peels can cause your skin tone to lighten, they are not ideal for people with darker skin
• As the effects last for a long time, you do not usually need repeat additional treatments
