Resurfacing without aggression.

A chemical peel is a controlled, calibrated exfoliation. The acid dissolves the bonds between dead and dying surface cells; what lifts is what was leaving anyway. The skin underneath — fresh, even, better-organised — is what does the actual work.

We use six acids, selected by skin type and concern: glycolic for brightening, mandelic for sensitivity, salicylic for oil and congestion, lactic for hydration, TCA for deeper resurfacing, and Jessner's for combination cases. Strength and frequency are written for you, not for a standard.

A course runs four to six sessions, spaced two to four weeks apart, with a written review halfway through. We adjust strength upward only when the previous session has settled completely.

Six acids, matched to skin.

Hover or tap a peel to see what it does and where it is typically applied. The choice is rarely a single acid — most courses sequence two or three across visits as the skin progresses.

From day one to held.

Day 0
In-clinic
Cleanse, prep, peel, neutralise. Stinging settles in thirty seconds.
Days 3–7
Flaking
Light, even flaking begins. Strict SPF; no scrubbing or active acids.
Week 2
Renewed
New skin emerges — brighter, more even, smaller-looking pores.
Month 3
Course end
Cumulative result holds with sun discipline and quarterly maintenance.

The details,
plainly.

Most patients have light, even flaking that lasts three to seven days — visible if you look closely but not dramatic peeling. We do not provoke heavy peeling; that is an outdated marker of 'a good peel.' Deeper TCA peels produce more visible shedding and we will tell you that in advance.
