Chemical Peels

PCA Skin Professional Peels

PCA Skin professional blended peels are formulated with unique peeling options for all clients, including those with aging, discoloured, acne prone and sensitive skin. These gentle exfoliating solutions will improve surface texture and fine lines, while helping to promote an even skin tone. These multifaceted and skin brightening treatments are an excellent option for sensitive skin and those with darker skin types. All of our professional peel treatments can be customised to suit your skin goals.

Following a PCA Peel the skin is visibly smoother, brighter and more evenly toned.

Perfecting Peel

The Bright & Even Peel is a versatile and gentle peeling solution designed for all skin types, including aging, discolored, sensitive, and acne-prone skin. It’s the only peel formulated with Mandelic Acid, a mild yet powerful chemical exfoliator that effectively resurfaces the skin without causing irritation.

This professional peel works to brighten, smooth, and refine the skin's appearance, improving texture, tone, and overall radiance. The Bright & Even Peel is suitable for sensitive skin and has been clinically proven to reduce uneven skin tone across all Fitzpatrick skin types, making it a safe and effective option for everyone.

Experience a refreshed, glowing complexion with visibly enhanced brightness and smoother texture after just one treatment.

We recommend scheduling this treatment either in the morning or evening, as the peel solution remains active on the skin for up to 10 hours. If performed in the evening, SPF is not applied post-treatment, and you should avoid cleansing the skin until the next morning to maximize the peel’s efficacy.

Sensi Peel

The Sensi Peel® combines the resurfacing power of Lactic Acid and Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) to reveal brighter, smoother skin. Lactic acid gently exfoliates by breaking down the bond between dead and living skin cells, promoting cell turnover and leaving the skin refreshed. You may experience a mild tingling or warming sensation during this phase.

The TCA component penetrates to a medium depth, improving surface texture, fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars. It also enhances the skin's ability to absorb skincare products for better results. After the treatment, you may experience an epidermal shedding process, typically beginning around day 3 post-peel, which can last for 1-2 weeks.

We recommend scheduling this treatment either in the morning or evening, as the peel solution remains active on the skin for up to 10 hours. If performed in the evening, SPF is not applied post-treatment, and you should avoid cleansing the skin until the next morning to maximize the peel’s efficacy.

Chemical Peel with AlphaRet®

This innovative peeling treatment combines the exfoliating power of lactic, glycolic and salicylic acids, enhanced by Skin Better Science’s patented AlphaRet technology, to reveal smoother, softer, and more even-looking skin. Specifically designed to improve skin tone and texture, this professional-grade treatment is ideal for patients with mild photodamage.

The AlphaRet Peel is available in two strengths, allowing us to tailor the treatment to your skin's unique needs. We start with the 30 strength and progress to 50 as your skin adjusts, ensuring optimal results. Due to its unique pH formulation, the peel causes minimal redness and peeling while still delivering impressive, visible improvements.

Starting with skincare and professional peels like AlphaRet can be a great way to prepare the skin for more invasive treatments. By promoting a healthier epidermis, this treatment enhances the efficacy of future skincare routines and treatments.

We recommend a course of 4 treatments for the best results. During your peel journey, we take before-and-after images to document and track the improvements in your skin’s texture, tone, and overall health—perfect for addressing pigmentation and refining skin texture with minimal downtime.

New Treatment

Peel, Plane and Glow

We have a new treatment for the Cosmetic Suite -'Peel, Plane and Glow' - this includes Dermaplaning the skin - mechanically exfoliating the top layer of the epidermis and removing vellus hair. We then apply a PCA medical grade peel to the skin - causing a chemical reaction in the skin - speeding up cell turnover rate, improving glow, pore size, texture and pigment to the skin.

Lastly we microneedle Meso into the skin at a superficial depth. Hydraulic acid is the main ingredient in Meso, causing a plumping and hydrating effect to the skin.
