Peel Season is Here!

What Are Chemical Peels?

Chemical peels are non-surgical cosmetic treatments designed to improve the appearance and texture of the skin. During your session, our certified and highly quafilied skin therapists in London and in Essex will be applying a chemical solution to the skin’s surface. This will cause the top layer of your skin to peel off, revealing a smoother, younger-looking layer beneath. Chemical peels can address a range of skin concerns, including:

1. Fine lines and wrinkles: Peels can help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles, making your skin look more youthful.
2. Acne and acne scars: Chemical peels can improve acne-prone skin and fade the scars left behind by past breakouts.
3. Uneven skin tone: They can even out skin tone and reduce the appearance of pigmentation issues, such as sunspots and melasma.
4. Open Pores, Ageing Skin , Texture: Peels can refine skin texture, leaving it smoother and softer.

Why Now is the Best Time for a Chemical Peel

This is the ideal season for chemical peels for several reasons:

1. Less Sun Exposure: During the summer, our skin is exposed to harmful UV rays, which can increase the risk of post-peel complications, like hyperpigmentation. In autumn and winter, the sun’s intensity decreases, making it safer to undergo this treatment.
2. Recovery Time: Chemical peels often require some downtime as the skin peels and heals. Cooler weather allows you to comfortably cover up and protect your skin during this process.
3. Preparation for summer: With the warmer seasons approaching, many people want to look their best for holidays, days out and events. Starting a chemical peel regimen now can help you achieve glowing, rejuvenated skin in time for the holidays.
