The GlowPeel is a professional chemical exfoliation treatment designed to improve the skin’s texture and tone. It utilizes a carefully selected blend of acids to remove dead skin cells and promote cellular turnover. This process helps to uncover fresh, new skin beneath the surface, enhancing overall skin health and appearance.
The GlowPeel treatment is a non-invasive procedure that gently resurfaces the skin. It is performed in a clinical setting to ensure safety and efficacy, with each session customized to your skin’s specific requirements. The goal is to stimulate collagen production and reduce the appearance of imperfections for a more luminous complexion.
Before your GlowPeel, you will have a thorough consultation to assess your skin type and concerns. This allows our team to determine the most suitable peel formulation for your individual needs. We will discuss your skincare history and any current medications.
You may be advised to discontinue certain skincare products, such as retinoids, for a few days prior to your appointment. It is also recommended to avoid excessive sun exposure in the weeks leading up to your treatment. Following these guidelines helps prepare your skin for optimal results.
Maintaining good skin hydration is beneficial before a chemical peel. Ensure your skin is healthy and intact, free from any open wounds or active infections. Our team will provide comprehensive instructions to ensure you are fully prepared for your session.
The procedure begins with a thorough cleansing of your skin to remove makeup, oil, and impurities. This step ensures the peel solution can penetrate effectively and evenly. A degreasing agent may also be applied to further prepare the skin.
The customized GlowPeel solution is then carefully applied to your skin, often in layers, depending on the desired depth and your skin’s response. You may experience a mild tingling or warming sensation during this phase. The solution is left on for a specific duration.
After the appropriate time, the peel solution is either neutralized or gently removed from your skin. This stops the exfoliation process and helps to restore the skin’s pH balance. Our team will ensure your comfort throughout the process.
Following the peel, soothing and protective products, such as a hydrating serum and sunscreen, are applied to your skin. You will receive detailed aftercare instructions to support your skin’s healing and optimize your results. The entire process is typically quick and efficient.
Following a GlowPeel, you can expect some mild redness and sensitivity, similar to a sunburn, for a few days. Peeling or flaking of the skin may occur, typically starting on day two or three and lasting for about a week. It is crucial to keep your skin moisturized and protected from the sun during this recovery period.
Initial results, such as smoother skin texture and a brighter complexion, often become visible once the peeling process has subsided, typically within a week to ten days. Optimal results usually appear after several weeks as the skin fully regenerates and collagen production improves. Multiple sessions may be recommended for enhanced and sustained benefits.

Those looking to minimize the appearance of fine lines and superficial wrinkles.
People with dull skin desiring a more radiant and youthful complexion.

A typical GlowPeel session usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes from start to finish. This includes the cleansing, application, and post-peel care steps. It is a convenient treatment that can often fit into a busy schedule.
While the GlowPeel is considered a mild to moderate peel, some downtime is expected due to skin flaking and redness. This typically lasts for 3-7 days, during which your skin is actively shedding its outer layers. You can resume most normal activities immediately, but sun protection is vital.
The number of GlowPeel treatments needed depends on your skin concerns and desired outcomes. For optimal results, a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 2-4 weeks apart is often recommended. Our team will create a customized treatment plan during your consultation.
It is generally advised to avoid applying makeup for at least 24-48 hours after a GlowPeel. This allows your skin to breathe and begin its healing process without irritation. When you do reintroduce makeup, opt for mineral-based, non-comedogenic products.
Light peels primarily exfoliate the outermost layer of skin (epidermis), offering subtle improvements with minimal downtime. Medium peels penetrate deeper into the epidermis and upper dermis, providing more significant correction for issues like fine lines and sun damage, with a longer recovery period.
