Bespoke Prescriptive Facial
Medical facials, often referred to as chemical peels involves the application of a chemical solution to the surface of the skin to produce the careful removal of its outer layers. When the skin regrows, it will not remember the blemishes that were there before. As the new skin develops, a new band of collagen in the dermis will grow along with a thicker epidermis meaning your skin will appear smoother than before the treatment. The amount of skin removed will depend on the type of chemical used, the strength of this product and how long it is left on the skin. Chemical peels are usually described according to how deep they work on the skin.
Chemical peels at the Harley Street Dermatology Clinic can be used on most areas of the body, but the most common use is to improve the appearance of the skin on the face, or on the backs of the hands. We are able to treat a variety of skin complaints by applying a chemical solution which causes the skin to gently peel off, making way for new, healthy skin to shine through.

RETINOL PEEL
Retinol is a form of vitamin A which encourages the growth of skin cells when applied to the skin. A retinol peel can help to unclog your pores which reduce acne breakouts and can encourage your skin cells to grow and renew. A retinol peel, which is a mild to moderate strength peel, can rejuvenate, hydrate and refresh your complexion and helps signs of ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles.
Results from a retinol peel are seen after the first treatment and patients will be required to wait 6-8 weeks if a second peel is desired. Products to protect the skin following treatment will be provided.

Frequently Asked Questions
HOW CAN I LOOK AFTER MY SKIN FOLLOWING A MEDICAL FACIAL?
Following your chemical peel it is important to not pull or pick at your skin as it can interrupt the skins natural healing cycle and you are more likely to get an infection. Be gentle with your skin and treat it with care, using sensitive products on your skin. Continue to moisturise your skin as normal, ensuring you are using an SPF sun protection daily and avoiding direct sun light where possible. It is also important to drink lots of water and stay hydrated.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO HEAL AFTER A CHEMICAL PEEL?
Treated areas will take around seven to 14 days to heal following a medium depth chemical peel. Deeper chemical peels may take slightly longer.
CAN ANYONE HAVE A CHEMICAL PEEL?
Chemical Peels aren’t recommended for those who have psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, rosacea, broken skin, sunburn or active cold sores. During your consultation with a therapist at the Harley Street Dermatology Clinic, your skin will be assessed and treatment options discussed with you.
HOW MANY CHEMICAL PEELS WILL I NEED?
The amount of chemical peels required to see results depends on the condition you are treating and the type of skin you have. Some improvement will be seen after each peel but it is often recommended to have a series of six peels to see the full desired effect. During your consultation at the Harley Street Dermatology Clinic, the length of course required will be discussed with you.
