Medical chemical peel

A controlled exfoliation for pigmentation, texture and congestion.

What is involved

Medical chemical peel

Pigmentation, congestion, dullness and mild texture change

A peel applies an acid at a strength and duration chosen for your skin type and problem, removing the surface layers in a controlled way. Depth is a decision, not a setting: superficial peels have almost no downtime and are given as a course, while medium peels involve visible peeling for several days. In richer skin tones the plan is more conservative, because the risk being managed is pigmentation.

What the appointment includes

  • A skin-type assessment and a preparation regime
  • The peel itself, at the agreed depth
  • Neutralisation and post-peel care in clinic
  • An aftercare pack including a high-factor sunscreen
  • A review before each subsequent peel
Appointment length
30 minutes
Number of visits
A course of 3–6 for superficial peels
Afterwards
Tightness and light flaking for 2–5 days depending on depth.

How it works

How treatment works here

  1. 01

    Consultation

    A dermatologist takes a history and examines the skin. Nothing is treated at this appointment unless it is straightforward and you want it done.

  2. 02

    Diagnosis

    Dermoscopy, biopsy or patch testing as needed. Where a diagnosis needs a result, you are told when and how you will get it.

  3. 03

    Your written plan

    What we recommend, what it involves, what the downtime is and what it costs. You take it away.

  4. 04

    Treatment

    Carried out at the clinic, with photography before and after so progress is measured rather than remembered.

  5. 05

    Review

    Skin conditions are managed over months. The plan is adjusted by what has happened, not by what was expected.

Questions we are asked

We hold appointments for mole checks every week. Ring the clinic and say that is what you need; if anything about the description sounds urgent, the team will find you an earlier slot.

Appointments

Every treatment starts with an assessment by a dermatologist. Bring photographs of anything that comes and goes — it will not be there on the day.
