SKIN PEELS-Beverly, Fourways

A skin peel, also known as a chemical peel, is a professional in-clinic treatment designed to rejuvenate your skin by gently exfoliating its outer layers.

This process involves the application of a carefully formulated chemical solution that promotes the shedding of dead skin cells, revealing your fresher, smoother, and more youthful complexion beneath.

Skin peels are customized to address a range of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, acne scars, and sun damage.

Available in varying strengths, from superficial to deep, each peel is tailored to suit your individual skin type, conditions and goals, ensuring optimal results with minimal downtime.

When performed by a skilled professional, a skin peel is a safe and effective way to enhance skin health and appearance, restoring your natural glow while boosting your confidence.

Enhances Skin Texture and Tone
Skin peel treatments exfoliate the top layer of skin, promoting a smoother and more even complexion. They address uneven pigmentation, rough patches, and dullness, leaving your skin with a radiant glow.

Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles
By stimulating collagen production, skin peels help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Regular treatments can result in firmer, more youthful-looking skin over time.

Treats Acne and Reduces Scarring
Peels can unclog pores, reduce inflammation, and minimize the occurrence of breakouts. For those with acne scars, peels encourage skin regeneration, improving the texture and reducing the visibility of scars.

Improves Skin Clarity
Skin peels target age spots, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation, helping to achieve a brighter and more uniform skin tone. This makes them ideal if you are looking to reverse the effects of sun exposure and aging.

Boosts Product Absorption
By removing dead skin cells, skin peels enhance the skin’s ability to absorb serums, moisturizers, and other skincare products, maximizing their efficacy.

Customizable for Your Needs
From light peels for subtle rejuvenation to more intense treatments, skin peels can be tailored to your specific skin concerns and goals, ensuring a personalized skincare experience.

A professional skin peel is an effective way to rejuvenate your skin, improve its texture, and address various concerns such as fine lines, discoloration, or acne.

While the treatment offers numerous benefits, it’s important to understand the potential downtime to plan accordingly for your lifestyle and schedule.

The recovery period varies depending on the type and strength of the peel:

Most peels offered at Natalie H Aesthetics involve some downtime but still suit busy women who can resume most normal activities from the next day.

• You may experience mild redness, tightness, sensitivity and dryness for 2-5 days, comparable to a light sunburn with some mild flaking of the skin for the first week. Light Make-up can usually be applied the next day if needed. While you can resume most activities from the next day there are some exceptions.
• Avoid sun exposure for a minimum of a week, wear SPF 30/50 everyday and re-apply at lunchtime if possible. It is assumed that daily SPF is an everyday part of your routine already.
• Staying out of the sun is THE most important and essential aspect of looking aftre your skin post treatment. Your skin is healing and sun exposure won’t only compromise your results but will damage your skin. I cannot emphasise this enough
• No exercise for 48 hours as the heat will compromise your results. No intense outdoor activities such as cycling or hiking for a minimum of a week  in order to avoid the heat and sun exposure

• Avoiding direct sunlight and applying sunscreen diligently.
• Using gentle, hydrating skincare products to support healing. (Complimeantary 3 day use aftercare cream is provided)

• Avoiding exercise for 48 hours post-treatment.
• Avoiding intense outdoor activities such as cycling, hiking, oudoor padel for a week. Once resumed, SPF protection/hats are a must.
