Medical grade peels are one of our favourite treatments for revealing fresh, glowing skin—and the aftercare is refreshingly simple.
While the peel works its magic on a deeper level, the immediate downtime is minimal. Most clients notice some redness for an hour or so post-treatment, but it usually settles quickly. Here's what we recommend for the best recovery and results:
Your Post-Peel Aftercare Checklist:
-
Hands Off, Please
As with many skin treatments, it’s important to avoid touching your face afterwards. This helps prevent irritation or infection while your skin is more vulnerable. -
Skip the Wine Tonight
We suggest avoiding alcohol on the evening of your peel. This reduces inflammation and supports your skin’s natural healing response. -
Soothe and Cool
We offer calming, hydrating masks specifically designed to nourish the skin post-peel. They feel beautiful and help speed up recovery while enhancing your results. -
Avoid the Sun
Sun protection is absolutely essential after a peel. Your skin will be more sensitive to UV exposure, so stay in the shade and wear SPF daily.
The Glow is Real
Most clients wake up the next day with noticeably brighter, smoother skin—often describing it as “literally glowing.” It’s something we see often, and yes, we’ve experienced it ourselves too. That fresh-faced, radiant feeling is one of the reasons we love this treatment so much.
If you’re ready to refresh your skin in a gentle yet effective way, medical grade peels might be your new go-to.
