Skin Peels

Peels are an effective way to improve a number of different skin conditions, targeting concerns on the face and body. Facial peels exfoliate the outer layers of our skin- stimulating cell renewal and regeneration, as well as refining, smoothing and hydrating the skin.

We offer a number of peels at Skin Alert including glycolic, lactic and salicyic acid peels, TCA chemical peels, retinol peels, and the popular pomegranate peel. Many skin concerns can be addressed including sun damage, fine lines, scarring, acne, pigmentation and hydration. You can maintain a fresher, more youthful complexion with a course of skin peels.

Cosmetic & Medical Grade Peels

The term “skin peel” has a broad definition, as there are many different types with varied outcomes. Some peels work superficially and only exfoliate the outermost surface dead skin cells with little or no downtime, whilst others work deeper in the skin and can cause peeling for approximately 7-14 days.

During your initial consult we can advise you on which peel is best suited to you, and how you can maximize your results with appropriate preparation and maintenance homecare.

A superficial to medium depth peel used to treat fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, acne and acne scars whilst also improving overall complexion, texture and brightness of the skin. A refreshing peel that is suitable for most skin types. $120.
Salicylic acid may be combined with 7% TCA to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin breaking down excess oil, refining and dissolving clogged pores, treating acne and smoothing the skin. $135.
A unique super hydrating formula that treats superficial pigmentation, dry, dehydrated or sensitive skins. The skin is lightly exfoliated leaving a smoother texture and brighter complexion. $120.
TCA peels, otherwise known as “true chemical peels”, come in a variety of different strengths and are considered medium depth or deep peels. They generally promote a considerable amount of skin peeling or shedding. TCA can be used to treat fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, hyper pigmentation, sun damage and in some cases congested or acneic skin. You must be sufficiently prepped on homecare before having this peel. $145.
