Chemical Peels

A chemical peel is a procedure in which a chemical solution is applied to the skin. This solution contains naturally-occurring acids (glycolic, Lactic acid, Mandelic Acid and Salicylic acids) and active ingredients designed to penetrate the top layer and resurface the skin. It does this through deep exfoliation which encourages new cell growth and boosts collagen production to help achieve optimal skin health, revealing a clearer, more refined and brighter skin. This makes chemical peels a superb rejuvenation treatment for all skin types, antiaging concerns and most skin conditions. Keeping your skin healthy and beautiful takes time so we advise all our patient to book a course of treatments to benefit from the incredible results.

Chemical Peels FAQ's

Are chemical peels right for me?

Yes, chemical peels are suitable for everyone. However we always provide a consultation to discuss in detail your requirements and ensure you meet our peel and treatment protocols. But there is no reason for you not to consider chemical peels as an option for overall skin improvement.

Does having a chemical peel hurt?

No. Depending on the peel, most people feel a warm sensation and tingling.

When will I see result and how long will they last?

Results depend upon the type of chemicals used and the different depths, from light to deep. Deeper chemical peels offer more dramatic results but also take longer to recover from. Results are usually seen straight after the treatment; results last up to 4 weeks or longer and can be maintained with a strict skincare regime advised by an expert.

What is the downtime and the effects after treatment?

There is usually no downtime for lighter chemical peels but you may notice skin dryness. Your skin will return to normal between 1-3 days. For medium to deeper chemical peels, it all depends on the depth of chemical peel used. We advise all our patients to purchase the post peel kits to minimise any unwanted effects after treatment.

What people say about us

Craig

I was recommended to see Dr Yiannis by a friend who had been a patient of his for many years and had always had excellent results. From the moment of contact he was extremely professional in the delivery of comprehensive information on the options of treatments and the what to expect from anti-wrinkle treatment. Upon arrival at the clinic Dr Yiannis was extremely welcoming and made me feel at ease straight away. He took his time to talk me through the treatment, understand any possible complications and consent to what he was doing.

The anti-wrinkle treatment was completely pain free, and I experienced no complications. The results looked extremely natural and within a few days I could see the benefits.

I will most definitely be using Dr Yiannis for all future treatments and look forward to my next visit.

Pablo

I’ve been seeing Dr Yiannis for my anti-wrinkle treatments for a few years now and I’m really happy with the results. He is polite, professional and knowledgeable. Our discussions are very frank (especially about treatments/expectations). Every treatment he has suggested has been tailored to my specific needs. I couldn’t recommend him more.
