CHEMICAL PEEL

What is it?

A chemical peel is a simple, non-surgical way to improve the appearance and texture of the skin. It is one of the most common procedures in aesthetic practice. A specialised chemical solution is applied to the area being treated for a designated period of time. The chemicals help to improve skin appearance and texture by gently removing the outer, damaged layers of skin, while at the same time stimulate the generation of new skin cells. Depending on the patient’s individual needs, our clinicians can tailor different formulations and strengths to achieve specific results.

How does it work?

Superficial peels, which only penetrates the outermost layer of skin, use mild acids like alpha-hydroxy acid (such as glycolic acid) to gently exfoliate the epidermis and beta hydroxyl acids (such as salicylic acid) to dry up the sebum that contributes to acne formation. Superficial peels can help improve uneven pigmentation, fine wrinkles, acne, and dry skin.

Expectation of Results

Chemical peels work by causing controlled wounding of the skin, stimulating new cell layer to form. Depending on the depth of the peel, the length of downtime will vary. For most light chemical peels, there is minimal downtime. Skin will glow and appear more radiant right away. For deeper peels, skin may appear sunburned in the days following the procedure.

At EST Clinic, we offer a wide variety of medical grade chemical peels that can treat a number of skin conditions, including:

acne and acne scarring
aging and sun damaged skin
fine lines and wrinkles
hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone
