SKIN PEEL

RECOMMENDED TREATMENT PLAN:

WHAT IS THE RECOMMENDED SKIN PEEL PLAN FOR MY SKIN?

We recommend that you book a skin assessment to determine exactly the skin package for your skin concern, however, the following is a popular skin plan outline for those who wish to undergo a course of light glycolic skin peels with us.

To book a skin assessment, please book any skin treatment mentioned in the plan above. Then email us that you would like us to advise you of a course of action for your skin. We will do this at your first appointment with us.

GLYCOLIC SKIN PEELS

We use natural glycolic from sugar cane. Glycolic acid is a colorless, odorless alpha-hydroxy-acid (AHA).     It’s a type of light skin exfoliant that dissolves   dead skin cells, allowing them to be wiped away easily, revealing smooth, younger skin below. Consider undergoing a light glycolic skin peel if make up is not adhering to the skin surface or if you notice an oily finish to your skin surface. These are signs that dead skin exists in the upper dermis.   

GLYCOLIC SKIN PEEL FOR THOSE PRONE TO RED VEINS

If you are prone to red veins, microdermabrasion may not be for you. Consider undergoing a light glycolic skin peel especially useful in advance of IPL or diathermy as it allows for better penetration of treatment and also helps to avoid excess shedding of skin post microneedling.
