Chemical Peel

Chemical peels are skin resurfacing treatments that use a specialised solution to exfoliate the outer layers of skin. This process promotes cell turnover, revealing smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin. Chemical peels can address a variety of concerns, including fine lines, acne, pigmentation, and uneven texture, leaving the skin refreshed and rejuvenated.
