Chemical Peels

Chemical Peels are liquids brushed on to the face to remove dead skin cells and stimulate the growth of new cells. It can help minimise the signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles, and removes scars and blemishes from acne, sunspots, and freckles.

Refresh and renew your skin with one of the tailor-made skin peel treatments at Skindays. We offer a variety of peels. We take your medical history and assess your skin type before suggesting the appropriate peel treatment. We take you through a number of pre-treatment checks to ensure we deliver the best possible results every time. If a treatment is not available, we will explain this to you so you can make an informed choice. We firmly believe that you should be fully involved in and informed about decisions concerning the management of your skin condition. We explain to you the possible effects of any intervention, both beneficial and adverse.
