SKIN PEELS

A skin peel is a form of exfoliation to remove dead skin cells from the top of the skin. A course of peels helps to improve the appearance and texture of the skin relating to the visible signs of ageing and improves the texture and appearance of acne-prone skin. Peels can reduce and improve fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, open pores, congested skin, scars, uneven skin tone, and other skin imperfections.

  • It's important to note that there are different types and strengths of clinical peels available, ranging from superficial to medium and deep peels. The specific peel recommended for you will depend on your skin type, concerns, and desired results.

  • There are three major classifications of skin peels, ranging from Light to Deep.

    Level 1 - Light or Superficial Peels
    A light (superficial) chemical peel removes the outer layer of skin (epidermis). It's used to treat all skin concerns and can be repeated at closer intervals compared to a level two or three peel.

    Level 2 - Medium Depth Peels
    A medium chemical peel removes skin cells from the epidermis and from portions of the upper part of your middle layer of skin (dermis). It's used to treat all skin conditions but can be more targeted to a skin concern with higher levels of concentrated ingredients.

    Level 3 - Deep Chemical Peels
    This chemical peel penetrates down to the lower middle layer of your skin. Deep peels, work within the reticular dermis, the deepest layer within the dermis, to reform the structural components of the collagen and elastin but also remove anything and everything above it.
