What is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a skin treatment that uses carefully selected active ingredients to exfoliate the skin's surface and support natural skin renewal. The treatment helps remove dull, tired skin cells and encourages a brighter, smoother and more even-looking complexion.

At Camberley Aesthetics Clinic, your peel is selected based on your skin type, concerns and treatment goals following a consultation.

What Can Chemical Peels Help With?

Chemical peels can be suitable for clients looking to improve a range of common skin concerns, including:

• Dull or tired-looking skin

• Uneven skin tone

• Pigmentation and dark marks

• Congestion and blocked pores

• Blemishes and breakouts

• Fine lines and rough texture

• Overall skin radiance

It is a popular treatment for those who want to improve skin quality without more invasive cosmetic procedures.

Why choose a chemical peel?

Chemical peels are ideal for clients looking to refresh the skin without more invasive treatments. They can be used as a one-off glow treatment or as part of a structured skin plan to target specific concerns such as pigmentation, congestion, acne-prone skin or early signs of ageing.

Before treatment, a full skin consultation will be carried out to assess your concerns, check suitability, and create a personalised treatment plan.

What to Expect During Treatment

Your treatment will begin with a skin cleanse and preparation. A carefully selected peel solution will then be applied to the skin, based on your skin type, concerns and treatment goals.

During the treatment, you may feel mild tingling, warmth or tightness. This is normal and usually settles quickly. Once the peel has worked for the required time, your skin will be soothed and protected with suitable post-treatment products.

Aftercare and Downtime

After a chemical peel, your skin may appear slightly pink, feel tight or look a little dry for a few days. Some clients may experience light flaking, depending on the peel used and their skin response.

For best results, avoid active skincare ingredients, exfoliation, heat treatments, saunas and direct sun exposure for a few days after treatment. Daily SPF is essential to protect the skin while it renews.

Results

Chemical peels can help the skin look fresher, brighter and smoother. They can improve the appearance of dullness, congestion, uneven tone, pigmentation, fine lines and rough texture.

Results develop gradually as the skin renews. Some clients notice a glow after one treatment, while a course of treatments may be recommended for concerns such as pigmentation, breakouts or texture.
