— About
Skin rejuvenation treatment in London
A medical-grade skin peel is a safe and effective treatment that targets pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and a lacklustre, dull complexion.
A chemical solution is applied to exfoliate the top layer of the skin stimulating in the production of elastin and collagen resulting in a fresher and brighter, youthful-looking appearance.
We offer a variety of skin peels, which will depend on your skin type and your skincare goals.

Types of skin peels
Obagi Blue Peel Radiance Skin Peel
The Obagi Blue Peel Radiance Skin Peel is a non-invasive, gentle chemical facial peel designed to improve skin appearance without any down time.
Using a combination of salicylic, lactic and glycolic acids applied to the face, neck, décolletage or hands this Obagi peel can help the skin appear tighter, smoother and healthier-looking.
The peel will improve skin tone and texture helping to minimise skin ageing by targeting fine lines, photo damage and reducing pores.
NeoStrata Glycolic Peels
The NeoStrata Glycolic Peels contain 20%, 35% or 50% glycolic acid and is designed for patients with multiple skin concerns including rough texture, fine lines, wrinkles, dry skin and irregular skin pigmentation. Higher strengths can also help to reduce the appearance of acne scarring and certain pigmentation skin concerns.
Our experienced aesthetic practitioners will be able to advise which medical-grade skin peel will be most suitable for you. Our skin peels use medical-grade strength ingredients and are supported by clinical evidence to prove their efficacy.
NeoStrata Clarifying Peel
The NeoStrata Clarifying Peel is a combination of 30% mandelic acid and citric acid and is suitable for oily and acne-prone skin.
— Your Journey
What is involved in having a medical-grade skin peel?
During your initial consultation, one of our experienced aesthetic practitioners will assess your skin type, skin concern and medical history, before discussing your skin goals and recommending a suitable treatment plan, tailored to you.
They will advise on the most suitable skin peel or combination of peels, number of treatments, time between each treatment, and what follow-up skincare regime will provide you with optimum results. At the end of the consultation, a test patch may be conducted to rule out any adverse reactions. Your safety is always of the utmost important to us.
The aesthetic practitioner may then recommend some skincare products for you to use at home, to prepare your skin for the peel to ensure the best results.

— Questions
Medical-grade skin peel FAQ
The questions we are asked most often about the treatment, the course and what recovery actually looks like.
What can I expect during treatment?
During your treatment, the Aesthetic Practitioner will cleanse your skin and prepare it for the chemical peel with a pre-treatment. They will then apply the peel and leave it on the skin for a period of time.
A neutralising agent is normally applied at this point to prevent any further exfoliation or reaction to the skin. The Practitioner will then remove all of the peel active ingredients and normally apply a moisturiser and sunblock prior to you leaving. Treatment time will last for 30-45 minutes.
During the treatment, you may feel a slight heat or tingling sensation, but this is completely normal, and will eventually subside. There is no downtime or recovery period associated with the treatment, so you can return to your normal routine immediately following a chemical peel.
Some patients report some minor skin peeling in the two to five days following treatment, which is perfectly normal, after which tangible results will be visible. For the best results, we recommend sessions of 3-6 treatments carried out every two to four weeks.
What aftercare is required for medical-grade skin peels?
The following aftercare is recommended to improve the treatment results and to minimise side-effects from the treatment:
- You may gently apply mineral make-up post treatment, or apply your normal makeup once any redness has calmed.
- A cold compress will soothe the skin, and in extreme cases an antihistamine from your pharmacy may help.
- Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 7 days and use sunscreen SPF50+ at all time during the course of treatment.
- Avoid hot water and saunas for 7 days post treatment.
- Avoid exfoliation and skincare products including acids or retinoids for 7 days pre-treatment and post treatment.
- Refrain from exfoliation and do not pick at peeling skin. The dead skin will naturally slough off.
- Avoid skincare products that contain alpha- and beta-hydroxy acid products, retinoids, retinols and skincare products that contain fragrance for seven days before and after treatment.
Skin peels are an ideal choice for anyone wanting to improve the appearance of their skin, and because we offer a range of chemical peels at London Real Skin we are able to help patients target specific concerns and achieve a number of skin goals.
Whether you want to treat a specific skin issue or just want to rejuvenate your skin to achieve a more youthful appearance, a chemical peel is a safe and effective way to do just that.
