INFORMATION ON CHEMICAL PEELS
A chemical peel is a restorative cosmetic procedure that may help reduce the signs of aging on your face.
During a chemical peel, a chemical solution is applied to your skin. This solution peels away damaged skin cells, allowing healthy skin to grow in their place.
This may help improve common skin concerns, such as:
-
wrinkles
-
hyperpigmentation
-
acne
-
uneven skin texture
Exact results will depend on many factors, including the severity of your skin issues and the type of peel you receive.
We can work with you to help determine whether a light, medium, or deep chemical peel is best for your skin and the concerns you’re looking to treat.
​
Light chemical peel
A light chemical peel, or superficial peel, will lightly exfoliate your skin. It only removes the epidermis, which is your topmost skin layer.
A light chemical peel is usually used for:
-
fine wrinkles
-
uneven skin tone
-
acne
-
dry skin
This treatment uses mild chemical agents, so it’s usually safe to get light chemical peels every 2 to 5 weeks.
​
Medium chemical peel
A medium chemical peel is slightly stronger than a light peel. It removes your epidermis plus the top layer of your dermis, which lies beneath the epidermis.
A medium peel is typically used for:
-
wrinkles
-
uneven skin tone
-
acne scars
You may need several treatments to get the results you want.
​
Medical chemical peel
A deep chemical peel removes your epidermis, along with the upper and middle layer of your dermis. It uses very strong chemicals, so you may need a local anaesthetic before the procedure. This will help prevent pain and discomfort.
A deep chemical peel is best suited for:
-
deeper wrinkles
-
deeper scars
-
precancerous skin patches
The effects of this peel can last for 10 years, so it’s done only once. You won’t need repeated treatments.
