Skin peels
At Skinique Beauty, we have incorporated an advanced skin restoration and repair program using the best available peels to help eliminate fine lines, pigmentation and to slow down the aging process in your skin.
Don't be put off by the name. Peels range from superficial to deep. The deeper the peel the more downtime. Superficial peel like glycolic or lactic acid helps to give your skin a smoother, softer and refreshed skin. It can help to remove pigmentation, soften fine lines and improve acne. It is virtually a lunchtime treatment with very little downtime. Most guests tolerate the treatment well and report slight stinging or temporary redness as the only side effect. Not all peel preparations are the same, Skinique Beauty has carefully selected a formulation that optimize treatment and produce consistently superb results.
For people who can afford more downtime and prefer less frequent treatments, a deeper peel such as Skinique Medical retinol peel can help you remove sun-damaged surface layers of your skin, fine lines, pigmentation and mild acne scarring. The healing time range from 5-10 days. For many years, retinol has been medically well-known and clinically proven to:
- Improve skin turnover. As one gets older, skin turnover slows down. Retinoids can help to improve and speed turnover so your skin behaves as a younger skin. Improved skin turnover can also help to reduce acne.
- Controls oil production - in those with excessive oil production, retinoids can help to moderate oil product and reduce acne
- Reduce DNA mutations and damage from UV exposure
- Improve wrinkles, pigmentation, skin tone and texture

Skinique phytoretinol peel
The Skinique phytoretinol peel is a especially formulated medical grade retinol peel. It synergises ultra pure Alpha and Beta hydroxy fruit extracts with Lanablue™; a truly innovative botanical retinol-mimicking complex that operate in tandem at a cellular level to visibly rejuvenate your skin and complexion to virtual perfection.
Mild to moderate redness for up to 24 hours after the procedure which most say feels like slight sunburn. Skin can turn shiny and may start to flake off after a day and for up to a week - it is important not to pick any peeling skin as this will delay the healing process. You can also experience a mild outbreak.
Although the peel treatments are very safe, unexpected reactions may occur. They can include prolonged redness, irritation, inflammation, breakouts or cold sores. Should you have a history of cold sores, it is recommended to prepare your skin with Zovirax cream twice daily for one week, or in severe cases have a course of Acyclovir can be prescribed by our doctor.
