Expert Chemical Peel Treatments in London

What Is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a clinical-grade skin treatment that uses exfoliating acids to gently remove the outermost layers of skin. This accelerates cell turnover, reduces imperfections, and reveals smoother, brighter, more even-toned skin beneath.

At our London clinic, we tailor each peel to your skin type and goals—whether that’s treating breakouts, softening lines, or restoring radiance. We offer a range of advanced formulas, including The Perfect Peel®. This powerful treatment is available in both half-strength (medium-depth) and full-strength (deep) formulations, allowing us to tailor the intensity based on your skin’s sensitivity and the results you’re seeking.
‍
The Perfect Peel® contains a unique blend of ingredients including glutathione, kojic acid, TCA, retinoic acid, salicylic acid, and vitamin C, delivering comprehensive skin rejuvenation in just one session.

Common Skin Concerns We Treat

Types of Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are generally classified into three types: superficial, medium, and deep.

Superficial Peels

Use gentle acids like glycolic or lactic acid to exfoliate the outermost layer of skin. Ideal for improving texture, dullness, and mild congestion with no downtime.

Medium Peels

 Penetrate deeper using trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to target pigmentation, fine lines, and acne scars. These may involve light peeling and a few days of recovery.

Deep Peels

Use stronger acids to treat advanced sun damage, deep wrinkles, or severe discolouration. Results are more dramatic, but the recovery time is longer.

At our London clinic, every chemical peel is tailored to your skin type, goals, and tolerance—ensuring safe, effective, and visible results.

Treatment Overview

Here's what you can expect from the fat-freezing procedure:

Initial Consultation

You’ll begin with a 1-on-1 consultation where we assess your skin and recommend the most suitable type of peel for your concerns and goals.

During Treatment

After cleansing and prepping the skin, the chosen peel is applied. You may feel tingling or mild warmth. Sessions typically last 30–45 minutes.

Post-Treatment

You may experience mild redness or flaking for a few days. We’ll provide tailored aftercare to protect your skin and enhance results.
