Chemical peel
Your skin is constantly battling to fight off the effects of pollution, stress, inflammation, ageing and sun damage. Why then does it feel like we are losing the battle against discoloration and imperfections from the sun? Pigment or melanin levels can vary among individuals and different ethnicities. It is these discolorations that are often darker than your normal skin tone and can vary in severity.
After a thorough consultation, your Sandton Beauty Clinic therapist will advise on the best solution to address your specific skin concerns, to restore a healthy youthful complexion and to ensure that the correct maintenance plans are in place to prevent re-occurrence of the condition. What sets Sandton Beauty Clinic apart is our holistic treatment approach achieved by combination treatment packages. Best suited treatment plans are tailor-made in response to client concerns, budget and expectations.
How does it work?
A chemical peel uses acids at stronger concentrations to treat the desired area of skin. They reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation by removing the epidermis. Deeper versions may also penetrate the middle layer of your skin (dermis) to produce more dramatic results.
If you’re out in the sun on a regular basis, chemical peels may not be the best treatment option for you. Chemical peels cause your skin to be more sensitive to the sun’s rays. If you don’t adequately apply sunscreen and use other UV protection, the sun may worsen your hyperpigmentation. You’ll need to take extra precautions for at least one week after your last chemical peel.
Who should try this?
Chemical peels may work if you have:
- age spots

They also work best for fairer skin tones, and they may provide faster results than face acid products.
