Medical-grade chemical peels tailored to your skin — gently dissolving dull, damaged surface layers to reveal smoother, brighter, more even-toned skin beneath.
Facials & Skin · Dr Aesthetics London
A chemical peel is one of the most trusted and time-proven treatments in aesthetic medicine. A carefully selected blend of exfoliating acids — such as glycolic, salicylic, lactic or TCA — is applied to the skin, encouraging the controlled shedding of dull, damaged surface cells and stimulating fresh cell renewal and collagen production from within.
At Dr Aesthetics London, every peel begins with a thorough skin analysis by a member of our clinical team. We select the exact peel type, strength and protocol for your skin — from gentle lunchtime brightening peels with no downtime, to deeper medical peels targeting scarring, pigmentation and significant sun damage.
Why Choose This Treatment
Even a single light peel removes the dull surface layer, leaving skin noticeably brighter and fresher.
Exfoliation refines rough patches, softens fine lines and visibly tightens enlarged pores.
Peels fade pigmentation, sun spots and post-blemish marks for a clearer, more uniform complexion.
Salicylic-based peels decongest pores and reduce active breakouts at their source.
The controlled renewal process triggers fresh collagen, firming skin over the following weeks.
From no-downtime glow peels to deeper resurfacing — your protocol is designed for your skin alone.
What to Expect
A detailed consultation and skin assessment to select the ideal peel type and strength for your concerns.
Skin is cleansed and degreased. For some peels, a short pre-treatment skincare routine optimises results.
The solution is applied in precise layers. You may feel a mild, brief tingling — most clients find it very comfortable.
Skin renews over 3–7 days. We provide full aftercare and recommend a course for transformative results.
Common Questions
Everything you need to know — and if your question is not answered here, our clinical team will happily discuss it at your free consultation.
It depends on the depth. Light peels may cause only mild flaking or none at all, while medium-depth peels typically produce visible peeling for 3–7 days. We will always tell you exactly what to expect before treatment.
A single peel delivers a noticeable glow, but for concerns like pigmentation, acne or scarring we usually recommend a course of 3–6 peels spaced 2–4 weeks apart.
Our clinicians are experienced in treating all skin types and tones, including darker skin which requires careful peel selection. Your consultation ensures the safest, most effective option is chosen.
Strict sun protection (SPF 50), gentle skincare and no picking at flaking skin. We provide a full written aftercare plan and remain available throughout your recovery.
