Achieve Flawless Skin with Professional Chemical Peels at The Face Centre

At The Face Centre, we offer Chemical Peels, a transformative skincare treatment that helps to reveal smoother, clearer, and more youthful skin. This non-invasive procedure uses specialized chemical solutions to exfoliate the skin, improve texture, and treat various skin concerns such as acne, hyperpigmentation, and signs of aging.

Chemical peels are one of the most effective treatments for rejuvenating your complexion, offering results that range from subtle to dramatic, depending on the depth and strength of the peel. If you're looking for a way to revitalize your skin and address specific skin issues, chemical peels might be the solution for you.

What Are Chemical Peels?

Chemical peels involve applying a solution to the skin that causes the outermost layers to exfoliate and eventually peel away. As a result, the skin beneath is fresher, smoother, and often more even in tone. Depending on your skin type and goals, we offer different types of chemical peels:

  • Superficial Peels

    These are the mildest type of chemical peel, using alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or other gentle acids to remove only the outer layer of skin. Ideal for minor skin concerns like fine lines, light pigmentation, and dull skin.

  • Medium Peels

    These penetrate deeper into the skin using trichloroacetic acid (TCA) or glycolic acid. Medium peels treat more significant concerns like acne scars, deeper wrinkles, and pigmentation issues.

  • Deep Peels

    Using stronger chemicals like phenol or high concentrations of TCA, deep peels provide the most dramatic results by penetrating the deeper layers of the skin. This treatment is used for severe sun damage, deeper wrinkles, and more pronounced skin imperfections.

How Do Chemical Peels Work?

Chemical peels work by applying an acid-based solution to the skin. This solution works to exfoliate the surface layers, encouraging the turnover of skin cells. As the old, damaged skin cells are removed, new, healthier skin emerges. This process helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, acne scars, and other skin concerns.

The type and strength of the peel used will depend on your specific skin type, the issues you're hoping to address, and your desired outcome.

Benefits of Chemical Peels

  • Improves Skin Texture: By removing dead skin cells and promoting new cell growth, chemical peels leave your skin looking smoother and more refined.

  • Evens Skin Tone: Chemical peels can help reduce the appearance of pigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone caused by sun damage or acne.

  • Reduces Acne: Certain chemical peels are effective at reducing acne and preventing future breakouts by unclogging pores and exfoliating the skin.

  • Minimizes Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Regular chemical peel treatments can stimulate collagen production, leading to a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

  • Enhances Skin Radiance: Post-treatment, the skin is left glowing, radiant, and rejuvenated.

What to Expect During a Chemical Peel Treatment

At The Face Centre, a chemical peel session begins with a thorough cleansing of the skin to remove dirt, oil, and makeup. Afterward, your aesthetician applies the chemical solution to the skin, allowing it to penetrate and work its exfoliating magic. Depending on the type of peel, the solution may be left on the skin for a few minutes before being neutralized or removed.

You might experience a mild tingling or warm sensation during the procedure, but discomfort is usually minimal. Afterward, your skin may appear red or flaky for a few days as it peels away to reveal fresh skin underneath.

For lighter peels, the recovery is quick, and you can expect minimal downtime. For medium and deep peels, some peeling, redness, and sensitivity are normal and can last for a few days to a week.

At The Face Centre, our team of skincare experts will assess your skin and guide you through the best chemical peel treatment for your needs. Whether you're looking for a quick refresh or a more dramatic transformation, we have the perfect peel for you.
