CHEMICAL PEELS
CHEMICAL PEEL TREATMENTS AT ADARE DERMATOLOGY
Chemical peels are effective medical skin treatments designed to improve skin texture, clarity, and overall appearance. They work by gently exfoliating the outer layers of the skin, encouraging renewal and revealing fresher, healthier-looking skin beneath. At Adare Dermatology, chemical peels are carried out under medical supervision and tailored to your individual skin type and concerns for safe, natural-looking results.
What Are Chemical Peels?
A chemical peel is a controlled application of a medical-grade chemical solution to the skin. This solution exfoliates the surface layers, stimulating cell turnover and improving a range of skin concerns.
Chemical peels can help treat:
- Acne and acne-prone skin
- Congestion and blocked pores
- Uneven skin tone and pigmentation
- Fine lines and early signs of ageing
- Sun damage
- Dull or rough skin texture
Peels vary in strength and depth, from superficial peels with minimal downtime to more advanced treatments targeting deeper skin concerns.
Why Choose a Dermatology Clinic for Chemical Peels?
While chemical peels are widely available, medical oversight is essential to ensure safety and effectiveness. Incorrect peel selection or application can lead to irritation, pigmentation changes, or scarring.
At Adare Dermatology, chemical peels are:
- Medically assessed and prescribed
- Matched carefully to your skin type and concerns
- Performed in a controlled clinical environment
- Supported with expert aftercare advice
Our priority is improving skin health while protecting the integrity of your skin.
Your Chemical Peel Consultation
Every chemical peel treatment begins with a detailed consultation. This ensures the treatment is appropriate and customised to your needs.
During your consultation, we will:
- Assess your skin type and condition
- Discuss your concerns and treatment goals
- Review your medical and skincare history
- Recommend the most suitable peel type and treatment course
- Explain expected results and recovery
This personalised approach ensures safe treatment and optimal outcomes.
How Chemical Peels Are Carried Out in Our Clinic
Chemical peels at Adare Dermatology are performed as a day treatment and typically take 20–30 minutes.
The Treatment Process
- The skin is cleansed and prepared
- The chemical peel solution is applied carefully to the skin
- You may experience mild tingling or warmth
- The peel is neutralised or removed after a controlled period
The depth and strength of the peel are chosen based on your skin’s needs and tolerance.
After the Treatment
Following the peel, the skin may appear slightly red or feel tight. Mild peeling or flaking can occur over the following days, depending on the peel strength.
Results and Recovery
Superficial chemical peels usually involve little to no downtime, while medium-depth peels may require a short recovery period. As the skin renews, patients typically notice:
- Brighter, clearer skin
- Improved texture and smoothness
- Reduced breakouts or congestion
- More even skin tone
A course of peels is often recommended for best results, particularly for acne or pigmentation concerns.
Aftercare and Skin Protection
Aftercare is a vital part of chemical peel treatment. We provide detailed guidance on:
- Gentle skincare routines
- Moisturising and barrier repair
- Strict sun protection to prevent pigmentation
- Products to avoid during healing
Following aftercare advice helps protect results and minimise side effects.
We recommend REFORM Skincare Sun Protection Products.
Combining Chemical Peels With Other Treatments
Chemical peels can be used alone or as part of a comprehensive skin treatment plan. In some cases, they may be combined with other dermatology or aesthetic treatments to enhance results, always with safety and skin health as the priority.
