CHEMICAL PEEL

SKIN PEEL

At Cleage Clinic, we offer chemical peel treatments, also referred to as skin peels, designed to improve the appearance and texture of your skin.  But what exactly is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a cosmetic treatment where a specially formulated chemical solution is applied to the skin to exfoliate and remove the outer layers. This process stimulates the growth of new, healthy skin, leaving your complexion smoother, more radiant, and refreshed.

There are different types of chemical peels based on the depth of the peel: Superficial (light) peel, Medium peels and Deep skin peels. For optimal results, multiple sessions are often recommended, allowing for continuous improvement in skin texture and appearance​.

CHEMICAL PEEL OPTIONS

The main differences between a superficial (light) peel and a medium skin peel lie in their depth of penetration, the types of acids used, and the results they achieve as a result a medium to deep chemical peels take a little longer to perform:


In contrast, deep chemical peels employ much stronger acids, often trichloroacetic acid (TCA) or phenol, which penetrate deeper into the skin to target underlying issues such as severe sun damage, deep wrinkles, or significant discoloration. While deep chemical peels can yield dramatic results, they also come with a greater risk of side effects and a longer recovery period compared to the milder effects of light peels.


Superficial (Light) Chemical Peels

Light chemical peels primarily use milder acids such as alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) like glycolic acid or lactic acid, as well as beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) like salicylic acid. These acids gently exfoliate the skin's outermost layer, promoting cell turnover and leading to a brighter complexion reducing the visibility of minor acne, or skin pigmentation variations. With minimal downtime - making them suitable for regular repeat sessions to maintain a healthy glow to your skin.


Deep & Medium Skin Peels

Deep chemical peels employ much stronger acids, often trichloroacetic acid (TCA) or phenol, which penetrate deeper into the skin as a result they can help reduce the impact and visibility of severe sun damage, deep wrinkles, or more significant skin discoloration. While deep chemical peels can yield dramatic results, they also come with a greater risk of side effects which is why it is so important that a skin test and consultation is performed prior to commencement of any treatment. As this is a stronger treatment a longer recovery period between sessions will be advised compared to a superficial peel.

  • How long will a skin peel treatment take?

    A skin peel session typically takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the type

    of peel and the area being treated. 

    Here’s a quick breakdown of the process:


    1. Preparation:

    Cleansing the skin usually takes about 5 to 10 minutes.


    2. Application:

    Superficial peels: The application of the chemical solution takes around 10 to

    20 minutes. 

    Medium and deep peels: These may take longer, approximately 20 to 30 minutes, as they require more careful application and monitoring.


    3. Post-Treatment Care: 

    After the peel, a few minutes are spent applying soothing products and providing aftercare instructions.


    Overall, you should plan for approximately 1 hour for the entire visit, including all steps.

  • How long do the results of a chemical peel last?

    The duration of results from a chemical peel can vary based on the type of peel and individual skin characteristics:


    Superficial (Light) Peels

    Results typically last for a few weeks to a month. Regular treatments (every 4-6 weeks) are often recommended to maintain the benefits.


    Medium Peels

    Results can last several months, often around 3-6 months. Periodic treatments around this timeframe may be needed to sustain the improvements achieved.


    Deep Peels

    Results can be long-lasting, sometimes several years depending on the skin issue addressed. However, as these peels have a stronger intensity and need a longer recovery time repeat treatments should be carried out following a consultation.


    Factors like your skincare routine, sun exposure, and overall skin health can also influence how long your individual results last. 

  • Is a chemical peel painful?

    The experience of pain during a chemical peel can vary depending on the type of peel being used and individual pain tolerance. Here’s a general overview:


    1. Superficial Peels: 

    These are typically the least painful. You may feel a mild tingling or warming sensation during the application, but most people find it comfortable.


    2. Deep & Medium Peels: 

    These can cause a bit more discomfort. You might experience a stronger burning or stinging sensation as the chemical solution penetrates the skin, but it usually subsides quickly.


    After a chemical peel, it’s common to experience some redness, sensitivity, and peeling, similar to a sunburn. These effects typically subside within a few days.

    At Cleage Clinic, we prioritise your comfort and safety. Our specialists will discuss any

    concerns you have about pain and provide options to help minimise discomfort during the treatment.
