What is a chemical peel?
A chemical peel uses a carefully chosen solution to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin, encouraging fresher, brighter and more even skin underneath.
We offer glycolic, mandelic, kojic, retinol, eye-area and pigmentation-targeting peels, matched to your skin’s tolerance — and LED red light therapy, a gentle, non-invasive treatment that uses red and near-infrared light to help skin recover and renew.
