Chemical Peels

A Chemical Peel is a minimally invasive procedure where a peeling solution is applied to the skin for exfoliation. Chemical exfoliation has been used throughout history for over 3,500 years. The Ancient Egyptians used lactic acid from milk and tartaric acid in grape skins, ingredients still commonly used in cosmetics today!

Chemical Peels can generally be classified into three different groups.

Superficial depth (Epidermis only)

Medium depth (Extending into the dermis)

Deep (Deep dermal)

At Liz Wood Aesthetics we offer superficial and medium depth peels.

There are different depths of chemical peels from superficial to deep.

At Liz Wood Aesthetics we offer a range of superficial and medium depth chemical peels to address skin concerns such as:-

  • Ageing skin

  • Sun damaged skin

  • Acne and acne scarring

  • Fine lines and wrinkles

  • Hyperpigmentation

  • Dull and lacklustre skin

  • Blackheads and large pores

Whilst you will benefit from a one off peel….especially good for that before occasion glow! A course of 4 chemical peels is recommended for optimum results to really address certain skin concerns. Several light depth peels can achieve similar results to one deeper peel treatment but with less risk and downtime.

Chemical Peels are an effective skin rejuvenation treatment alone, however when combined with other treatments like injectables, LED, microneedling, medical grade skincare they will be boosted to give amazing skin transformation results.
