Chemical Peels
At Skin Rituals, a short stroll from the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, our advanced chemical peels are tailored to your skin type and concerns—delivering noticeable improvements in tone, texture and radiance with minimal downtime.
What Are Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels use controlled applications of acids or bio‑active formulas to exfoliate dead skin cells, stimulate collagen production and reveal a fresher, more even complexion. Ideal for fine lines, acne, pigmentation and rough texture, our peels range from “no‑peel” bio‑revitalisation to medium‑depth resurfacing.
Renewal & Collagen Activation
Chemical peels initiate cellular renewal by breaking down the bonds between dead and living skin cells, gently sloughing away dull surface layers. This process also triggers fibroblast activity deep in the dermis, stimulating fresh collagen production to firm, plump and strengthen the skin’s structure.
Brightening & Texture Refinement
Targeted brightening agents regulate melanin synthesis to fade dark spots and even out pigmentation, while the exfoliating action refines pore size and smooths surface irregularities—revealing a clearer, more radiant complexion.
Key Benefits
The Chemical Peel Process
Our streamlined chemical peel process blends clinical precision with nurturing care. Each step is performed by our expert therapists using premium, cruelty‑free formulations for optimal results and comfort.
Consultation & Skin Analysis
We begin with a skin‑type assessment and discuss your concerns, goals and medical history to select the ideal peel strength and formula.
Pre‑Treatment Prep & Protection
The skin is gently cleansed and protected; sensitive areas are shielded while the treatment zone is prepped for maximum efficacy.
Peel Application
Your customised peel is applied in even layers, allowing the active ingredients (TCA, acids, enzymes or bioactive blends) to penetrate and stimulate renewal.
Neutralisation & Soothing
After the prescribed dwell time, we neutralise the peel and apply calming serums or masks to soothe and reduce any immediate redness.
Hydration & Aftercare
Finally, a hydrating moisturiser and SPF are applied. You’ll receive tailored aftercare instructions and recommended homecare products to prolong your glow.
