Chemical Peels:
Galina Kerr Skincare delivers the widest range of advanced clinical peels to target every skin concern.
The most common indications for clinical peels are:
Aging and sun damage
Acne and congestion
Acne scarring
Pigmentation
Uneven skin tone and texture
Redness and rosacea
Fine lines and wrinkles
Melasma (hormonal pigmentation)
They work to break down proteins within the skin and result in the exfoliation of superficial skin cells. They remove damaged or abnormal cells in order to replace them with healthy and more organized cells. Through the stimulation of inflammation deeper in the skin chemical peels can also stimulate new collagen formation resulting in thicker, healthier skin.
What to expect after a skin peel?
There are several types of peels available at Galina Kerr Skincare. Treatments range from very gentle to medium strength. The lighter peels will often leave your skin glowing whilst some of the medium-strength peels may cause some slight swelling, pink-looking skin, and mild flaking/ peeling.
How long do skin peel results last?
Most people see a gradual and continual improvement after their first treatment. The total number of treatments varies depending on the condition of your skin. During your initial consultation, your Skin Therapist will recommend a schedule for maximum results.
Do skin peels hurt?
Once activated the peel may feel a bit prickly and will warm the skin. There may be some mild discomfort with the stronger peels. Your skin may start to feel tight. Your skin may start peeling/flaking on day 2 and may last for 7 days depending on the strength of the peel. Some of the lighter peels give little or no flaking or peeling. Ask your Skin Therapist what might be right for you.
Are skin peels safe?
Yes. Your Skin Therapist is always in the room and can deactivate the peel at any time.
How long does it take?
Treatments take between 30-45 minutes depending on the type of peel. Although some of the peels can be used with no preparation at all, some require that you prepare your skin with special skin products for between 10-30 days before treatment.
How quickly does a peel work?
This will depend on the health and condition of your skin. Your Skin Therapist will tailor a course of treatments to your skin.
