SKIN PEEL FACIAL

Discover effective skin peels for perfect skin

If you’re unfamiliar with skin peels or chemical peels, the term itself could send you running in the other direction. It certainly doesn’t sound like something you’d want on your face, right? Wrong. The biggest misconception is that chemical peels will burn the skin leaving it sore, red and painful. Unless you opt for harsher salon treatments this couldn’t be further from the truth. Try forgetting the word ‘peel’ for a minute and instead think of them ‘lifting’ the grime, ‘fizzing away’ dead skin, and ‘plucking up’ congestion. That’s better isn’t it?

 

Chemical peels are a great solution for a range of skin concerns, from wrinkles to acne to hyper-pigmentation. The treatment stimulates new cell growth and collagen production, helping to reveal fresher, clearer, brighter skin. So if you’re in search of a way to get brighter, clearer, more youthful-looking skin, a chemical peel could be the answer.

At Empire Clinic, we believe that the fundamental basis for a successful aesthetic procedure is an in-depth consultation with a skilled qualified practitioner to assess your needs and develop a bespoke personal treatment plan so that you achieve outstanding natural looking results.

HOW IT WORKS

Chemical peels and skin peels are cosmetic treatments that can be applied to the face, hands, and neck. They’re used to improve the appearance or feel of the skin. During this procedure, chemical solutions will be applied to the area being treated, which causes the skin to exfoliate and eventually peel off. Keep in mind that not all chemical peels are the same. Some treat surface skin issues and others address concerns originating in the deeper layers of skin. You’ll want to consult a qualified, experienced practitioner to determine which type of chemical peel is best for you. Once you’ve determined the right one, prepare to love the results as a skin peel is an effective and very safe procedure.

TREATMENT STEP BY STEP

Here is some essential information about the treatment and what to expect before, during and after your visit with us.

STEP 1

CONSULTATION

At Empire Clinic, nothing is more important to us than your health, safety and wellbeing. During your initial consultation, we discuss in depth what your wants and needs are and make a plan on how we can achieve that for you. We also talk through your medical history to make sure there aren't any potential contraindications. If you have any qualms or questions of your own, this appointment provides a great opportunity to ask away.

STEP 2

DURING YOUR TREATMENT

The procedure involves the application of a chemical solution to the surface of the skin to produce the careful removal of its outer layers. The amount of skin removed will depend on the type of chemical used, the strength of this product and how long it is left on the skin

STEP 3

AFTER YOUR TREATMENT

etting the most from your facial means following a few simple aftercare steps after your treatment. Avoid applying makeup or other products right after a facial. If possible, avoid sunlight and consider relaxing or taking a nap right after your facial to keep your mind and body relaxed. Stay hydrated to improve circulation and metabolism after your facial. Don’t work-out or get a hot shower the day of your facial as it may irritate the skin. Finally, following a healthy skin care routine, can help you maintain healthy, beautiful skin between your facial appointments.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are the different types of chemical peels?

Peels can be differentiated into superficial, medium and deep peels according to the depth of the skin they penetrate. Most of the peels used now are superficial peels because they have minimal healing time, and no one can make out that you have taken one. Your practitioner decides the most appropriate peeling agent based on your skin type and your primary complaint. There are many peeling agents available in various combinations; the most important ones are:

 

  • Alpha-hydroxy acids(AHA): Glycolic acid, Lactic acid, Mandelic acid, Citric acid
  • Beta-hydroxy acids(BHA): Salicylic acid
  • Glycolic acid is alpha hydroxyl acids (AHA) commonly known as fruit peel. Its benefits had long been recognized when Polynesian women used sugarcane juice that contains GA in their beauty regime. Glycolic acid specifically helps in decreasing pigmentation and hydrating the dry skin; this is the perfect choice for non-sensitive dry and combination skin types.

 

Lactic acid has been in the use of skin care for ages; the much-celebrated beauty icon Cleopatra use to apply sour milk that contains lactic acid. Lactic acid is AHA, but much milder than the glycolic acid, thus preferred for sensitive skin types.

 

Mandelic acid will give less overall irritation and inflammation when compared with other AHAs, which is beneficial for those who have sensitive skin. In addition, it has an antibacterial effect on the skin, which makes it a viable choice for those with acne-prone skin who want to have a chemical peel.

 

Salicylic acid is beta hydroxyl acid that has the unique ability to seep into oil secreting glands and dissolves the oil secretions and help loosen the clogs plugging the opening of these glands. Thus, salicylic acid peels not only sheds dead skin cells but also reduces oil secretions, black/white heads, pimples and open pores. No doubts it is preferred for oily skin types.

How do I prepare for a Skin Peel treatment?

Clients should adhere to the following guidelines for 3 days after your treatment:

 

Do not use any skin care products that have not been approved by your aesthetician.
Avoid direct sun and extremes of heat or cold. ​This includes  tasks such as gardening, cooking over a hot stove for a long period of time, exercising, swimming, sitting next to a bonfire or fireplace, hot tubs baths.
Discontinue use of any AHA products for 72 hours, or 6 weeks if doing a treatment cycle. Client may continue their regular skin care routine after 72 hours .
Use hydrating and reparative products. Products rich in soothing and healing ingredients are best to encourage new healthy cell growth. Antioxidants, Vitamins A, C and E, Natural Skin Lighteners and Growth Factors work well.
Use Sunscreen. Clients should never go out even on a cloudy day without SPF30 sun protection if they do peels.
No scratching, peeling or picking. no exercise, steam rooms or hot tubs and drink plenty of water

How many Skin Peel treatments are required?

You’ll see the results of a superficial chemical peel when your skin heals, generally within two to three weeks. Generally it is best to get a peel every four to six weeks. But if you suffer from acne there are some peels that you can do every two weeks until you get the results you want. Generally it is a great idea to buy a series of four or five peels up front so that you can achieve the treatment results that you want.
