Chemical Peel Frequently Asked Questions

A chemical peel works to remove dead skin cells. As a result of this highly effective exfoliation, the skin ramps up its production of new skin, replacing old, damaged skin cells with healthy new ones. In the days following some peeling treatments, your skin might feel dry, and you might notice some flaking as the dead skin peels away. This peeling action occurs at the cellular level revealing smoother, younger, and brighter skin from below that top layer. After around 7 days all the dead skin will have shed, any redness will have calmed, and your skin will be glowing.
Chemical peels are a minimally invasive way to dramatically improve the appearance of skin; helping to diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. They also work to improve the appearance of discolouration, uneven skin tone, and sun damage because the peel action removes damaged, dead skin. Chemical peels will retexturize the skin, targeting rough dry skin, scars, and general lumps and bumps. Your skin will look younger, smoother, and plumper around 7 days post-treatment, optimal results can be seen 2 weeks post-treatment.
Usually a course of treatment is required for optimal results, but generally results can last up to a couple of months.
Depending what we’re treating - if it’s acne or pigmentation spots then that’s a pretty permanent result.
