Chemical Peel in Sherburn in Elmet
Resurfacing peel for tone, texture and pigmentation.
A chemical peel applies a carefully chosen solution to the skin to lift away the surface layer, revealing fresher skin underneath. Peels are used to help with uneven tone, rough texture and pigmentation.
The strength and type are selected to suit your skin, which is why we assess it before we start. The appointment is booked for 45 min. Some flaking over the following days is normal, and we give you full aftercare advice.
What to expect
- We assess your skin and talk through the plan, including how many sessions are usually advised.
- Your skin is cleansed and prepared before the treatment, and numbing is used if suitable.
- Your skin may be pink or feel warm afterwards, and this usually settles within a day or two.
Aftercare
- Use a high-factor SPF daily and avoid strong sun while your skin recovers.
- Use only gentle skincare for the first few days and avoid active ingredients until we say otherwise.
- Avoid make-up, swimming, saunas and intense exercise for the first 24 hours.
- Don't pick or peel any flaking skin; let it come away naturally.
This is general guidance. We'll give you advice specific to you at your appointment, and if you are ever worried afterwards, get in touch or seek medical advice. All aftercare advice
