A very popular treatment here in our clinic, and in our opinion one of the best facial peels available, this type of facial peel is a skin-resurfacing procedure that works by encouraging cell turn over. A chemical solution is applied to remove the upper layers of the skin. The process is very effective in improving the problems of a dull appearance and problems associated with acne and enables any new skin that grows back to have a smoother and younger appearance.
At Smiles we recommend using the Epionce System for facial peels to:
30 – 60 Minutes
Healthier skin
Initially sensitive skin
Up to 3-6+ months
With two different treatments to choose from, you can be assured that we can help you to resolve whatever is worrying you.
The process involves four key stages:
The Lite Peel
Using a concentration of 30% Malic Acid and 5% Salicylic Acid this is the less aggressive of the two and is perfect to try if this is your first experience or if you are considering face peels as a regular smoothing and brightening treatment. An added bonus is that no downtime is required.
The peel itself works in a three way process by:
The Corrective Peel
The individual stages or steps in the process can be stand alone treatments or used together. They can be customised by our experienced therapists to meet your individual requirements and consist of 28% Salicylic Acid and 50% Malic Acid. You will feel a mild tingling during treatment and experience some skin flaking the following week.
What are the key ingredients?
Both paraben and fragrance free, Epionce consists of anti-inflamatory ingredients that work alongside a potent botanical antioxidant delivered in proven therapeutic concentrations.
Why is it so effective?
Epionce chemical peels are so effective because rather than the treatment simply sitting on the surface of the skin it penetrates below to give an improved appearance with healthier, smoother and more radiant skin.
We stock a number of post treatment products to help you to sustain the benefits of your treatment such as anti-aging serums, restorative hand and body, lotions, SPF protection sunscreen and an essential recovery kit to use once home to restore barrier function and hydrate the skins surface.
Clinical Relief for Symptoms of Acne
A useful addition to the Epionce range, are their Purifying wash and spot gel.
Whilst acne is common in adolescents, adults can also suffer. Most treatments aimed at teenagers contain Benzoyl peroxide or other harsher chemicals which will exacerbate the often drier or more sensitive skin. The Epionce range is specially formulated to be kinder to the skin and as such is far less inflammatory.
Yes they are but it is recommended that you seek the advice of our professional practitioner for a consultation prior to undertaking any treatment.
This procedure not only unclogs the pores but will also reduce the size of them. By clearing the blockage circulation is improved which will also help reduce inflammation.
Peeling usually lasts for 3-5 days but will depend on the specific treatment that you have chosen. A regime of gentle cleansing, moisturising and sunscreen will be advised, but strenuous exercise that could cause sweating should be avoided for three days.
Your practitioner will advise you on this at the time of your treatment but as a general rule avoid using a cleanser with alpha hydroxyl acids, alcohol or perfume. Instead use a clean, lukewarm cloth and rub the surface very gently.
This is a perfectly normal side effect as chemical peels accelerate cell turnover. or renewal.
