Chemical Peels
Since the days of ancient Egypt people have been using chemical peeling to rejuvenate the skin. The aim of skin peeling is to gently remove the skin layers. Skin is a living organ made up of millions of cells. Every day thousands of cells die fall off and are replaced by new cells from below.
Unfortunately, as we age, this becomes a slower and more haphazard process, making your skin unable to shed dark blotches, sun damage or a dull, lifeless complexion. The function of a skin peel is to create an even controlled shedding of several layers of damaged cells. This exposes a new fresh layer of skin with a more even colour and a smoother texture. In addition, the peel stimulates new cells to grow, thereby tightening the skin, which decreases wrinkling.

Philosophy of Care
Philosophy of Care believes that balancing and pre-conditioning the skin is essential for maintaining the integrity of the skin, and incorporating professional and home-care treatments through a well-defined program ensures treatment success without unnecessary discomfort and irritation. The below treatments are suggested once the skin is properly balanced with DermaQuest Skin Therapy pre-conditioning products:
The resurfacing treatments
All peels effectively increase cellular turnover, stimulate collagen and elastin production, and address sun damage. Each of the resurfacing treatments have their own unique benefits and can be combined or sold as a course treatment package depending on the individual clients needs and expectations. A consultation is recommended.
Lactic Acid Resurfacer
This treatment is appropriate for sensitive skin, hyper pigmentation, darker skin tones
or for someone new to peels to “jump start” their program. Lactic acid leaves your
skin smoother, brighter and more hydrated.
Alpha Peptide Resurfacer
High levels of alpha hydroxyl acids allow the peptides in this formula to penetrate
deeply and quickly into the skin, offering immediate anti-aging benefits. Collagen is
stimulated and the skin is instantly relaxed and smoothed. Peptides are an absolute
must for those interested in an effective anti-aging program.
Pumpkin Resurfacer
High levels of pumpkin pulp, alpha hydroxy acids and salicylic acid dominate this
incredibly smoothing and revitalizing treatment. Your skin will never feel smoother
and your pores will disappear! You can expect some sensation with this treatment
but don’t worry—it will be worth it! This treatment benefits all skin types and
conditions except sensitive skin.
Salicylic Acid Resurfacer
This resurfacing treatment is ideal for oily and acne skin types. Salicylic acid moves
easily through the pores, clearing them out while reducing inflammation. This
treatment effectively combats acne, leaving a wonderfully smooth and clear
complexion. Note: It is normal to experience a couple of days of peeling with this
treatment. Proper home care compliance is necessary to achieve the desired results
of this treatment.
