Chemical peels are a time-tested treatment for skin blemishes that provide smoother, clearer and younger looking skin. Pigment spots and unwanted freckles can be effectively removed using peels, as well as pre-cancerous spots. Downtime may be anywhere from no time at all, to one week, depending on the peel chosen. The team at The Skin Centre are skilled at selecting the right chemical peel for your skin. 

After a peel, your face will show improved skin tone, as well as a softer, smoother complexion. You should also see fewer lines and wrinkles, the reduction of acne lesions and fading of age spots.
The use of alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) is one of the best non-invasive anti-ageing approaches for quick and effective results. AHA’s in peels are proven to reduce wrinkles, increase firmness via collagen stimulation, smooth the skin, reduce pigmentation and increase hydration.

Glycolic acid is the most well known of the AHA and is best extracted from the sugar cane plant. It works to loosen or dissolve the glue-like substances holding the outer layer of cells together to the underlying epidermis. These thick, piled-up, clinging cells are responsible for the appearance of dry, rough, scaly skin and brown spots caused by age and sun damage. When the “glue” is loosened, the thick, microdamaged outer layer is sloughed away and the newly exposed skin is healthier and smoother.

Lactic acid is another AHA and comes from natural sources of sour milk and tomato juice. It is effective for the treatment of acne-affected skin due to its penetration into the sebaceous follicle. It improves the appearance of ageing skin due to its dual ability to provide excellent peeling action, and moisturise and hydrate the skin too.

Ingredients like cranberry, raspberry, blueberry, blackberry and bearberry can reduce pigmentation. Licorice extract and L-Ascorbic Acid will gently modify and brighten your skin, while powerful antioxidants such as the natural extracts of cocoa, and acai berry, lactic acid and pumpkin enzymes can re-texturize your skin.

At the Skin Centre we offer all these effective ingredients in both our in clinic treatment peels and facials as well as our take home products. Our prescription skin care product range Glymed Plus, give amazing results due to the concentrated levels of all these ingredients.

Offering AHA skin care management in conjunction with Botox and facial fillers is extremely beneficial to your skin, as the results are seen instantly, particularly for the treatment of mature, changing and sun-damaged skin. We also use our products to prepare the skin prior to peels, laser and surgical treatments to give you the very best results from your treatments.
