Chemical Peels
Chemical peels work by removing the outer layers of skin. The depth of the peel ranges from superficial to deep and is determined by the chemical agent used, the concentration, among other factors that will be discussed. Following a chemical peel, the deeper layers of the skin will respond by regenerating new skin and by increasing the production of collagen. The result is a look that’s smoother and more youthful.

BioRePeel is an innovative peel treatment, using 2-phase technology that taps into the power of bio-stimulation, revitalisation, and peeling substances to rejuvenate the skin.
It adopts a unique, non-invasive approach aimed at addressing a myriad of skin concerns, ranging from acne and enlarged pores to signs of ageing and uneven skin texture. This treatment delivers a strategic combination of active ingredients to stimulate skin cells, promote exfoliation and enhance collagen production. The outcome is a revitalised complexion, reflecting the holistic wellness of your skin.
Unlike traditional chemical peels that primarily rely on the peeling action of their acid components, BioRePeel utilises a unique blend of active ingredients, each playing a critical role in skin rejuvenation.
These include trichloroacetic acid (35% TCA) for improving the texture and appearance of the skin, alpha, beta and poly hydroxy acids for combating acne and skin brightening, and a combination of vitamins, amino acids and GABA for reducing lines and wrinkles and countering the effects of skin ageing by UV radiation and pollution
A TCA skin treatment is among the most effective chemical peels available. You can expect to see softer lines and wrinkles, healthier, glowing skin, and better tone and texture. There is also small tightening affect with a TCA peel.
For optimal results, it’s recommended to complete a course of six sessions, spaced two weeks apart.
