A chemical peel is a procedure whereby a chemical solution is applied to the skin to remove its top layers. The healthy skin that lies beneath is often much smoother and healthier. Peels work by resurfacing, exfoliating and remodelling the skin, revealing fresh, clear and youthful skin. Often a course of peels is advised in order to achieve optimum results. 

 

Chemical peels are used to treat skin conditions including lines and wrinkles, discolouration, acne and scarring. Peels differ in strength and can often be done at different depths. Here at NB Aesthetics we offer both mild and deep peels. The most suitable one for your skin type and area of concern can be discussed at a consultation prior to creating a treatment plan tailored specifically to you. Some of the peels that we offer are invisible with no down time or shedding, whereas others result in full facial shedding. 

 

ZO Stimulator Peel  

 

This ‘lunch time peel’ is very mild and suitable for all skin types.  This gentle peel is superficial and causes no peeling or down time. A combination of glycolic, citric and lactic acids help to improve skin texture and tone by providing gentle exfoliation of the epidermal layer. The peel is ideal for brightening and lifting the skin, evening out skin tone and preventing future pigmentation.

 

If you are a little unsure about having a chemical peel or feeling nervous about having one then this peel is for you.  This ‘Red Carpet Peel’ is a favourite amongst celebrities and is also referred to as the ‘lunch time peel’ due to its lack of down time. Simply walk away with glowing, rejuvenated skin. 

 

Why not combine this peel with a dermaplaning treatment for the ultimate ‘Red Carpet Facial’? – this is one of our best-selling facials here at NB Aesthetics.
