Resurfacing skin treatment

Chemical Peels

A peel is one of the simplest ways to give tired skin a reset — it lifts away dull, damaged surface cells so brighter, smoother skin can come through. Lisa offers everything from gentle “lunchtime” peels with little downtime to stronger options, always matched to your skin rather than picked off a menu.

  • Dull, congested or tired-looking skin
  • Uneven tone and pigmentation
  • Fine lines and rough texture
  • Skin prone to breakouts
Chemical Peels

What it is

A chemical peel uses skincare-grade acids to gently exfoliate the skin and encourage it to renew itself. Lisa works with trusted professional ranges and a spread of strengths — from light enzyme, glycolic, salicylic and mandelic peels through to stronger retinol peels. The right one depends entirely on your skin and what you’re hoping to improve.

How it works

The peel speeds up your skin’s natural cell turnover and helps support collagen production, so the fresher skin underneath is revealed. Lighter peels brighten and smooth with little or no downtime, while stronger peels do more retexturing in return for a little flaking afterwards. Individual results vary, which is why Lisa assesses your skin before recommending a strength.

What to expect

Lighter peels are easy to fit around everyday life, while stronger ones may leave the skin flaking for a few days as it renews. An antioxidant and a good sunscreen afterwards are essential to protect the results and get the best from your skin. Lisa will often suggest a course or a tailored skincare plan, and can pair a lighter peel with dermaplaning or microneedling where it suits.

  • Lighter peels with little to no downtime
  • Stronger peels for more noticeable retexturing
  • Aftercare and sun protection are part of the result

Good to know

Common questions

Will my skin peel and flake?

It depends on the strength. Lighter “lunchtime” peels usually have little or no visible flaking, while stronger retinol peels can cause some shedding for a few days — that’s part of how they retexture the skin. Lisa will tell you what to expect before you start.

Which peel is right for me?

That’s decided at consultation. The best choice depends on whether you’re focused on breakouts, pigmentation, texture or fine lines, and on how much downtime suits your life. Lisa matches the peel to your skin rather than a fixed package.

Is there anything I need to do afterwards?

Yes — using an antioxidant and a daily sunscreen afterwards is essential, both to protect freshly resurfaced skin and to keep the results looking their best. Lisa will guide you on simple, sensible aftercare.

Can a peel be combined with other treatments?

A lighter peel can often be paired with dermaplaning or microneedling for tired or dehydrated skin. Lisa will only suggest combining treatments where it genuinely benefits your skin.
