What Is a SkinCeuticals Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a resurfacing treatment that uses safe, exfoliating acids to gently remove the outermost layers of skin. This helps to speed up cell turnover, unclog pores, fade pigmentation, and smooth fine lines — revealing fresher, clearer skin underneath.

SkinCeuticals Peels are clinically formulated and backed by science. They combine powerful ingredients like glycolic, salicylic and lactic acid, with a focus on skin rejuvenation and long-term skin health. Unlike harsher peels, these treatments are well-tolerated and suitable for a range of skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin.

What Happens During the Treatment?

Consultation: We begin with a full skin analysis to determine the most suitable peel for your concerns.

  1. Preparation: Your skin is thoroughly cleansed and prepped.

  2. Application: The chosen chemical solution is carefully applied and monitored for the correct length of time.

  3. Neutralisation: The peel is gently neutralised and removed.

  4. Post-treatment care: A tailored combination of SkinCeuticals serums, moisturisers and SPF is applied to calm and protect your skin.

  5. Aftercare guidance: You'll be given expert advice on what to expect and how to care for your skin in the days following your peel.

How Many Peels Will I Need?

You’ll see visible improvement after just one treatment, but for optimal results, we often recommend a course of 4–6 peels spaced 2–4 weeks apart. During your consultation, we’ll create a personalised plan based on your skin type and goals.
