Chemical Peels

 Chemical peels are cosmetic treatments that use specific chemical solutions to exfoliate and improve the texture of the skin. By applying a chemical solution to the skin, the outer layers are gently removed, promoting the growth of new, healthier skin underneath. Chemical peels can vary in strength, from superficial peels that target the outermost layer to deeper peels that penetrate more significantly, making them versatile for a range of skin concerns 

The chemical Peels used at Skin & Soul are by 'Aspect Dr', with varying strengths of peel used. These are classified as superficial peels, meaning downtime is significantly less than High strength deep peels.

 Chemical peels can effectively address a variety of skin concerns, including acne, fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, uneven skin tone, and rough texture. They are also beneficial for improving the appearance of age spots, melasma, and enlarged pores. 

The chemical peel chosen will be based on your individual concerns and skin. At Skin & Soul there are multiple peels that are custom to your concern. Eg. Active Acne, Uneven Skin/Pigmentation, General Dull complexion etc.

Results from chemical peels can vary depending on the type and depth of the peel used. Generally, superficial peels may show improvements in skin texture and tone within a few days, while deeper peels may take longer for full results to emerge, often within a week or two as the skin continues to heal. Many patients notice a significant enhancement in their skin’s appearance after a series of peels, as collagen production is stimulated and overall skin quality improves  

   The choice between a chemical peel and skin needling depends on your specific skin concerns and desired outcomes. Chemical peels are excellent for improving skin tone and texture, while skin needling is particularly effective for stimulating collagen production and addressing scars or deeper wrinkles. Your practitioner can help guide you in selecting the best treatment for your individual needs, and in some cases, combining both treatments may yield optimal results
