- Strength matched to your skin

How it works
What a chemical peel is
A chemical peel is a technique used to improve and smooth the texture of the skin. A solution is applied for a set time to lift the outer layer, and newer skin comes through beneath it as it renews.
The strength is matched to your skin and your concern — dullness, uneven tone, pigmentation or acne scarring — and it is usually planned as a short course rather than one session.
- 01 Strength matched to your skin type
- 02 Dullness, uneven tone and pigmentation
- 03 Mild acne scarring
- 04 Usually planned as a short course
