WHAT IS A CHEMICAL PEEL?

A chemical peel is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the application of a chemical solution to the skin. This solution causes the outermost layers of skin to peel away, revealing newer, healthier skin beneath. Chemical peels are effective for a wide range of skin concerns, including acne, sun damage, fine lines, and uneven skin tone.

TYPES OF CHEMICAL PEEL

At our Leeds Skin Clinic, we offer two exceptional chemical peels:

Obagi Chemical Peel: Obagi is a trusted name in skincare, known for its transformative products. The Obagi chemical peel is a medical-grade treatment that addresses various skin issues, such as wrinkles, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and acne. The active ingredients in Obagi peels, like trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and glycolic acid, work together to improve skin texture and appearance.

The Perfect Peel: As the name suggests, The Perfect Peel is designed to provide a flawless complexion. It combines several potent ingredients, including TCA, salicylic acid, phenol, retinol, and vitamin C, to treat a multitude of skin concerns. This peel promotes collagen production, reduces hyperpigmentation, and leaves your skin radiant.

The Chemical Peel Process

Consultation and Skin Assessment

Your peel process at Aesthetica Medical begins with a thorough consultation and skin assessment. If a peel is recommended, we will offer the peel that will give you the most benefit for your given condition. We will discuss the pros and cons and give you all the information you need. This is your opportunity to ask as many questions as you like.

Preparing Your Skin for a Peel

Preparation is key to maximising the benefits of your chemical peel. We recommend a personalised skincare regimen to recondition your skin, enhancing the treatment's effectiveness and reducing potential side effects. Full details will be provided during your initial consultation

During the Procedure

During the procedure, your comfort and safety are our top priorities. The selected chemical solution is carefully applied to your skin, where it works to exfoliate dead skin cells and stimulate new cell growth. Depending on the peel's depth, the process typically lasts between 30 to 90 minutes.

Post-Peel Care and Recovery

Post-peel care is part of our aim of providing optimal results. Done correctly, your post-treatment regimen can greatly affect how effective your results will be. Aesthetica Medical provides detailed aftercare instructions, including the use of gentle skincare products and sun protection. Recovery time varies with the peel's intensity, but patients can usually resume normal activities immediately after a light peel.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • WHO IS THE IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR CHEMICAL PEELS?

    Ideal candidates for chemical peels are individuals looking to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, acne scars, and other skin imperfections. Those with fair to medium skin tones may experience the most significant improvements. It's important to have realistic expectations and be in good overall health. Our in-depth consultation will determine if a chemical peel is right for you.

  • WHO IS THE IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR CHEMICAL PEELS?

    It is advisable to avoid makeup for at least 24 hours after a light peel to allow the skin to breathe and recover. For medium or deep peels, makeup should not be applied until the skin has fully healed, which could take up to two weeks.

  • HOW OFTEN SHOULD I GET A CHEMICAL PEEL?

    The frequency of chemical peels depends on the type of peel and your specific skin concerns. Light peels can be done monthly, while medium to deep peels may require a longer interval between treatments, typically 3 to 6 months. Our specialists at Aesthetica Medical will provide a tailored treatment plan to meet your needs.

  • ARE CHEMICAL PEELS PAINFUL?

    Chemical peels can cause a tingling or slight burning sensation during the application, but this discomfort is generally mild and temporary. Aesthetica Medical ensures a comfortable experience by closely monitoring your skin's response throughout the procedure.
