Chemical Skin Peels
Chemical peels are performed to improve the skin’s appearance. They can treat sun spots, acne scars, dark freckles, wrinkles, acne spots, and overall improve skin tone and brightness. Chemical peels are used to treat wrinkles, discolored skin and scars — usually on the face. They can be done alone or combined with other cosmetic procedures.
Types of Chemical Peels
Chemical peels range from mild to deep and are performed by a dermatologist. The chemical solution can contain the following popular acid components:
- Salicylic
- Glycolic
- Kojic
- Mandelic
All the above chemicals are known for their renewing properties.
Benefits of Chemical Peels
Clients with hyperpigmentation, fine lines, sun damage, and acne scarring will significantly benefit from chemical skin peels. Once that top layer peels off, the skin underneath will appear younger-looking, even-toned, and brighter.
Cost of Chemical Peels
Depending on the strength and medical grade of the chemicals used in the chemical skin peel, single treatments can start from £80 for milder peels. Deeper peels can start from £250 to £500 a session due to the depth of the dermis it reaches.
It is essential to note that clients will experience skin sensitivity following chemical skin peels. So they must incorporate SPF into their skincare regime.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a less intense version of a dermabrasion. The procedure is performed by a licensed skincare specialist and involves rubbing fine crystals into the skin using a device. It takes about 30 minutes to perform. Microdermabrasion can improve skin tone, skin complexion, sunspots, and acne scars.
Benefits
Microdermabrasion exfoliates the skin and removes the dull and rough layer of dead cells that accumulates over time. Clients with clogged pores, uneven skin pigmentation, or fine lines will benefit greatly from this treatment.
Methods
There are two standard methods of microdermabrasion treatment:
- Diamond-tip handpiece: The aesthetician can exfoliate the dead skin and suction it off immediately, allowing the clearer and smoother skin underneath to shine through.
- Crystal microdermabrasion: This method works by spraying crystals across the face, exfoliating the skin while a vacuum sucks up the crystals and dead skin cells. However, it may worsen conditions for clients with rosacea and other inflammatory skin types.
Procedure
A microdermabrasion treatment usually takes around an hour. It can utilize small crystals sprinkled on the client’s skin or a diamond tip for a crystal-free option. The number of sessions required can range from 5 to 16 to see lasting results.
For optimal results, choose a qualified technician and follow post-treatment care.
Cost
Prices for a single treatment start from £50.
Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy works by superficially injecting a serum consisting of vitamins, enzymes, hormones, and plant extracts into the skin. Due to its ability to tighten the skin, Mesotherapy is excellent for treating clients with loose skin. However, it can also fade fine lines, contour the body, and reduce cellulite.
Treatment Duration
Depending on the skin area, a single treatment can take up to an hour, and clients can return to their daily activities immediately. Prices start from £75 a treatment.
