Chemical Peels

Peels get a bad reputation from the old idea of skin peeling away in sheets and a week of hiding indoors. That's not how it works anymore. Modern peels are progressive, not aggressive, working with your skin over a series of sessions rather than trying to force a dramatic result in one go.

They work by resurfacing, clearing away what's sitting on the surface and encouraging fresh, healthy skin through faster. A superficial peel targets just the outermost layer, ideal for dullness, mild congestion and breakouts, and gives a quick refresh with next to no visible downtime. A medium depth peel reaches further into the skin, making it more effective for pigmentation, deeper texture, early lines and stubborn congestion, with a touch more visible flaking or sensitivity while your skin renews.

I choose the depth and strength of each peel based on your skin's tolerance and what you're actually treating, then build a course around it. Most people see their best results over a series rather than from one peel, and peels are also used to prime skin ahead of more advanced treatments, so everything that follows works harder.
