Chemical Peels

A chemical peel is a non-surgical procedure to enhance your facial appearance including reducing the signs of ageing, decreasing mild scarring, age spots and freckles and improving the texture and colour of your face. What happens during a chemical peel? Chemical peels are usually performed as an outpatient procedure. They can take from 30 minutes to one hour. Your eyes and hair will be protected. After thoroughly cleansing your face your consultant will apply one or more chemical solutions to small areas. The solution causes a controlled wound exposing new, healthy skin. The duration of treatment and solution applied will determine the level of your chemical peel. A light peel removes just the outer layer of skin and may be all that is needed to address uneven pigmentation, acne, dryness and fine wrinkles. A light peel may need to be repeated monthly to maintain your new look. A medium peel removes more skin layers and addresses acne scarring, deeper wrinkles and uneven skin colour. A medium peel can be repeated every 6 – 12 months to maintain your new look. A deep peel may be used if you have deep facial wrinkles, sun damaged skin, scarring and uneven skin tone. The strongest chemical will be used. You may need pain medication and a local anaesthetic. Results from a deep peel can last up to 10 years. During your chemical peel you may experience a burning or stinging sensation. Cool compresses may be applied. Deeper peels may result in swelling which is likely to disappear after two weeks. Following a deep peel your skin may be red for up to three months. Going home after a chemical peel Be sure and ask if should arrange to have someone drive you home. Depending on what type of solution was applied, treated areas may feel similar to having sun burn. Your skin will scale and peel for 3-7 days following your procedure. Medium or deep chemical peels may cause swelling or blisters that break and peel for 7 -14 days following your procedure. They may also require bandages for the first few days. It is important to allow enough recovery time after a deep peel. Your consultant may recommend waiting two weeks before returning to work or normal activities. After a chemical peel it is important to avoid any prolonged exposure to the sun. Your consultant will discuss follow up care and advise you on products that will help maintain balance skin colour following your chemical peel.

ZO Skin Health Stimulator Peel

What is the ZO Stimulator Peel? As all chemical peels can vary in their intensity, it’s important to choose one that you feel is right for your skin. The ZO Stimulator Peel can be categorised as a superficial peel, which means that it will only focus on the gentle exfoliation of the top layer of skin, otherwise known as the epidermis. When applied, this milder form of peel works to treat a number of common skin complaints such as fine lines, dullness, rough/dry texture, acne, pigmentation and age spots and is unrivalled in its ability to strip away dead skin cells, stimulate cell turnover and leave patients with a healthy glow - perfect for the red carpet or that big night out! How does it work? The ZO Stimulator Peel is made up of a combination of acids that can have many positive effects on the condition of the skin. These powerful ingredients are capable of brightening the appearance and clearing away the unwanted debris that accumulates on the skin over time, setting the stage for a complexion that radiates confidence and one completely unmatched in its smoothness. In terms of your treatment, we will ensure that your face is thoroughly cleansed before we apply this peel to your skin. This peel will be left in place for up to four minutes before a neutralising solution is used to balance your skin’s pH level and a selection of products applied to ensure that your skin remains fully hydrated and protected following your treatment. Treatment You can have this treatment as a one off skin brightening treatment or in combination with other treatments such as Dermaplaning and Microneedling.
