Chemical Peels

Chemical Peels are an exfoliating treatment used to improve the tone and texture of the skin. Chemical peels are a popular non-surgical cosmetic service where a chemical solution is applied to the skin to peel away the skin’s top layer. The solution is chosen according individual needs and include AHA’s or BHA’s. A chemical peel can be used to diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reduce pore size and congestion, and increase hydration. It will give your skin a smoother appearance and diminish the appearance of hyper-pigmentation (brown spots).

*Please note that chemical peels may cause purging. Purging occurs when you start using a new product that increases the cell turnover rate, such as ingredients present in most chemical peels. In other words, when starting a new professional treatment, or incorporating certain homecare products that contain active ingredients into your regime, the skin will often begin “purging” all of the gunk left under and on your skin. Dry skin, makeup buildup, dirt, oil and sebum quickly reach the surface of your skin. As a result, your skin may look worse before it looks better. For this reason, we highly recommend a series of treatments and a specific home care regimen prior to starting the peel process. 
Great skin takes time, it doesn’t happen overnight! 
HOW IT WORKS

Multiple Layers of product can be applied based on your individual skin assessment. In order to maintain optimal results, 3-6 treatments are recommended, each a minimum of 2 weeks apart. During the treatment you may experience some tingling and redness. The redness can last for a couple hours and you may experience some peeling for up to 5 days. Generally performed on the face but can be done on the hands and neck. You will be left with radiant and luminous skin!

CHEMICAL PEELS

We currently offer Alumier and Glymed Plus chemical peels. Alumier uses clean chemistry with corrective percentages and medical grade ingredients to target multiple skin conditions.

GLOW PEEL

The glow peel combines 7% lactic acid, 7% salicylic acid and 7% resorcinol making it our most aggressive peel. It uses a brightening and resurfacing solution that exfoliates dead skin cells and stimulates skin cell renewal. The glow peel is effective in minimizing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, mild acne, and hyperpigmentation issues like age spots, discolouration and uneven skin tone.

*It can be customized in strength by number of layers applied

**Due to this being our most aggressive chemical peel, peeling, dryness and flakiness is expected.

The amount of peeling that occurs varies by individual.

RED CARPET PEEL

The red carpet peel utilizes a chemical peel containing 30% lactic acid called Renew 30. This peel decreases visible signs of aging and hyperpigmentation. It will work to exfoliate dead skin cells and boost cell turnover to improve your overall skin tone and texture. This multifunctional peel targets multiple skin conditions including fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage and large pores. 

The treatment begins with a gentle but effective fruit enzyme retexturizing mask  to prep the skin, allowing the Renew 30 peel to penetrate deeper. Once the peel is removed, it is followed by an oil free hydrating mask that enhances the skins‘ ability to retain moisture. The hydrating mask infuses the skin without weight or heaviness making it ideal for all skin types.

We have named this treatment “the red carpet peel” because your skin will look glowing just in time for your big event!

This is our most gentle peel and a great choice for first timers or clients with sensitive skin.
