The Chemical Peel Process
- Consultation
Your chemical peel journey begins with a consultation to assess your skin type and concerns. Our experts will recommend the most suitable peel for your needs. - Preparation
The skin is cleansed thoroughly to remove dirt, oil, and makeup. Protective measures are taken to shield sensitive areas like the eyes and lips. - Application of the Peel
A carefully selected chemical solution is applied to the skin. Depending on the type of peel, you may experience a mild tingling sensation. The solution is left on for a specific duration to achieve optimal results. - Post-Treatment Care
After the peel, your skin may appear red or feel tight, similar to a mild sunburn. Peeling typically begins within 2-3 days and lasts up to a week. Moisturizers and sunscreen are essential during this healing phase.
