Superficial Facial Peels

Chemical peels are used to reduce fine wrinkles, scars and blemishes by using a chemical exfoliating solution. This helps peel away the outer layers of the skin, thereby allowing new skin to regenerate.

They vary in strength by the acid solution used for the peel and how deeply it will affect the skin. The three most common groups of facial peels are, Superficial Peels, Medium Depth Peels and Deep Peels.

Superficial peels normally use a naturally occurring acid found in fruits called glycolic acid. These are the mildest chemical peels and are excellent for improving a fresher, younger look with a reduction in skin imperfections such as acne or damaged skin. If you are looking for a more substantial effect, you may wish to consider a Medium Depth or Deep Facial Peel.

The treatment is quick and easy. The face is cleansed and then the peel is painted onto your face and left for between two and ten minutes. The peel is then washed and neutralised. There are no after-effect and you can return to your normal daily life. To maintain the effect it is recommended that you repeat the treatment every four to six weeks.
