    CHEMICAL PEELS

    Chemical Peel Treatments

    For dull skin in need of rejuvenation, our consultant dermatologist Dr Hiba Injibar recommends chemical peels. A chemical peel can help slough away tired, dry skin cells on the upper layers of the skin, revealing the healthy, more youthful skin underneath. Chemical peels can help revitalise the skin for a smoother, more radiant complexion. In removing the outer layers of the skin, chemical peels can help reduce the appearance a variety of aesthetic concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, pigmentation and acne, and provide smoother, more even tone and texture. Patients can expect clearer, hydrated skin with a healthy glow.

    What do Chemical Peel Treatments Do?

    At Dermasurge, we offer a range of chemical peels of differing strengths and depths. During your consultation with our consultant dermatologist and founder, Dr Hiba Injibar, we can determine the right type of peel to treat your unique skin requirements and produce the best results for you.

    For more information, please get in contact with Dermasurge to arrange a consultation.

    How Do Chemical Peels Work?

    Chemical peels work by applying a chemical solution to the skin, causing it to gently peel off, making way for new, healthy skin to shine through. They can effectively treat a variety of skin concerns, including:

    • Dull, ageing skin
    • Sun damage
    • Acne and oily skin
    • Acne scars
    • Melasma and pigmentation
    • Freckles & Lentigos
    • Fine lines and wrinkles
    • Sun/age spots and freckles
    • Uneven skin, enlarged pores, and blackheads

    Types of Chemical Peel

    Superficial Chemical Peels

    Our qualified beauty therapist performs superficial chemical peels. They help reduce oiliness, unblock pores, reduce blackheads, and freshen dull, sun-damaged skin.

    Typically, at least three to six superficial peels are needed to treat ageing skin and acne scars. Most people experience mild facial redness and occasional swelling, which usually fades and disappears within 48 hours.

    Medium Depth Chemical Peels

    Medium depth chemical peels penetrate deeper into the skin layers and are performed by our experienced dermatologist. They effectively treat more pronounced skin issues like deeper wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven skin tone. Downtime is typically around 7-14 days, with visible improvements as the skin heals.

    Deep Chemical Peels

    Deep chemical peels provide the most dramatic results by removing several layers of skin. They treat severe wrinkles, deep scars, and extensive sun damage. Recovery time is longer, but the results are long-lasting and transformative.

    Benefits of Chemical Peels

    • Improved Skin Texture: Smoother, more even skin surface
    • Radiant Complexion: Brighter and more youthful appearance
    • Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Minimised signs of ageing
    • Acne and Scar Treatment: Clearer skin with reduced acne scars
    • Pigmentation Correction: Evened out skin tone and reduced dark spots

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much downtime will I need?

    The amount of downtime will depend on the strength of the peel. At Dermasurge, we recommend embracing longer periods of downtime in favour of more effective, long-lasting treatments where necessary.

    Are there any side effects?

    Common side effects of chemical peels include flaking, peeling, redness, tenderness or stinging in the treatment area. This should subside as the skin begins to heal.

    How soon will I see results, and how long will they last?

    This will depend on the type of peel used during treatment. Depending on the length of downtime, results may take between one week and three months to become fully evident. Patients may need repeat or top-up treatment every six months. Dr Hiba will recommend an at-home skincare regime to help prolong the effects of chemical peel treatments.

    Is Chemical Peeling Good for the Skin?

    Yes, chemical peeling can significantly improve the texture and appearance of the skin by removing dead skin cells and promoting the growth of new, healthy skin. It is beneficial for addressing a range of skin concerns such as acne, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation.

    What Does Your Face Look Like 3 Days After a Chemical Peel?

    Three days after a chemical peel, the skin may appear red and slightly swollen. Peeling typically begins around this time as the outer layer of skin starts to shed, revealing new, healthier skin underneath. This process continues for several days.

    How Much Does a Chemical Peel Cost?

    At Dermasurge, a price of a Chemical Peel starts from £125

    Dr. Hiba removed a dermal piercing for me and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. She was compassionate, kind, caring, and completely honest throughout the entire process. Her professionalism and attention to detail gave me full confidence in her care.

    Her team was also outstanding and every staff member I interacted with was warm, supportive, and knowledgeable. The receptionist in particular went out of her way to help me and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free.

    Highly recommend Dr. Hiba and her team for anyone looking for expert, considerate care.

    We have used Dermasurge for our two children and the level of service from all staff goes above and beyond. They are polite, personable and knowledgeable. The speed of service is also very good. We have used other dermatologists before and can note that the Dermasurge team are far better.

    I had several seborrheic keratosis removed and one unusual skin growth excised and biopsied. The procedure was quick, painless and healed well. Dr Hiba and her staff were all friendly and kind and followed up quickly on my questions. I would use this dermatologist again.

    I’ve been attending Dermasurge for the past 4 months for laser and Botox treatments. The staff are all very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. An excellent TEAM!
    Dr. Hiba is amazing, very professional and approachable. During my initial consultation Dr. Hiba provided clear advice and direction, regarding the treatment I was seeking. I felt supported and listened to. A treatment plan was drawn up and each treatment explained in detail.
    My laser treatments were done by Manuela, who has been incredible. A top therapist, professional and so friendly. Thank you Manuela for the high standard of care you gave me!
    I highly recommend Dr.Hiba and her team.

    Everyone at this clinic is really nice and what I like most about Dr Hiba is that she did not try to sell me something, instead she listened to my concerns and recommended a treatment that had my best interests at heart. And i am very pleased with the results.

    I had acne in my twenties. Dr. Hiba did a great consultation and prescribed medication that successfully healed my acne. I feel so much more confident in my skin today and am super grateful for the treatment I received. Also, the whole team at Dermasurge is super lovely. Thank you, Dermasurge!

    My teenage daughter attended having suffered with bouts of regular breakouts which caused her significant concern and distress. Dr Hiba took the time to explain what was causing the problem and gave very pragmatic and honest advice about the treatment pathway. Less than a week later the results are already evident and my daughter; who only last week felt very low about her skin now has hope that she doesn’t need to suffer any longer.

    Ridwana was also incredibly kind and understanding. She shared her own experiences with my daughter making her feel much more at easy.

    The entire clinic has a calming yet professional atmosphere which is exactly how the clinical experience also felt.
