Unfortunately age tends to get the better of the youthful skin we once all enjoyed. Over time the external skin layer thickens, conventional creams and treatments are less effective in reaching the inner skin layers and skin elasticity reduces. Exposure to the sun is also a signiciant contributor to skin damage,

 

As a consequence, the skin starts to wrinkle and line, pigmentation is evident, blackheads and sun spots appear and the skin may become rougher and duller

 

Peels have the ability to strip off this thickened outer epidermal layer, allowing the active ingredients of skin care products to once again penetrate deep into the inner skin layers, regenerating, tightening and smoothing the skin and resulting in a fresher, brighter and healthier appearance. In the process, unsightly blemishes and epidermal pigmentation may be lessened

 

Medical peels are thus widely used to

 

• Improve premature ageing and sun damaged skin

• Transform dull, dry and dehydrated skin

• Improve/soften fine lines and wrinkles

• Reduce/lighten epidermal pigmentation

• Reduce acne prone skin

 

 

Different skin types require different treatments and only after a conclusive consultation, will a patient be advised in terms of the medical peel better suited for her/his skin type and primary concern.
