Resurfacing Peels – What You Need to Know

As we are transitioning to cooler weather, it’s a good time to invest in a series of skin resurfacing treatments.

Autumn and winter are optimal seasons to get a resurfacing treatment treatment as we tend to stay indoor more, lowering the level of UV exposure from the sun while our skin recovers.

Getting into a yearly routine of skin resurfacing peels is our favourite way to help you achieve your no makeup glow.

While the benefits of exfoliation speak for themselves, getting a professional grade exfoliation treatment, such as an Nimue or Kalahari resurfacing peel is something you can feel and see immediately.

Fear the word chemical peels no more!

Many people get apprehensive to these two words, “chemical peel”, because they have seen pictures of peels gone wrong.

First things first, know that chemical peels discussed here are much more superficial and safe than medical chemical peels used to treat medical conditions. Second, try to stay off the internet researching photos because there are so many different acids we use depending on your concerns and skin needs.

What resurfacing peels can do for you?

Whether you are working on teenage acne, adult acne, texture irregularities, or hyperpigmentation our skin resurfacing peels are a great effective option.

Did you know we have a ton of skin cells, roughly 19 million skin cells in every inch of our body?

While the body continuously replaces old skin cells with new ones, the top 18 to 23 layers of our skin are made of dead cells. As we get older, our cell turnover starts to slow down and it can be harder for us to shed the bu ildup. This is why our skin doesn’t have the radiance we did in our glory twenties.

Using a gentle, at-home exfoliate like Lynette’s new favourite the Kalahari enzyme buff (gentle yet very effective) is something we encourage our clients to use a few times a week. But to go deeper, remove dead skin cell efficiently, and achieve a softer, more radiant skin, we recommend a one of our professional peels.
