What Are Professional Peels?
Professional peels are safe, medical-grade exfoliation treatments designed to improve skin tone, texture, and overall skin health. Also known as chemical peels, they work by gently removing the outer layer of damaged skin, stimulating cellular renewal and revealing a smoother, brighter complexion.
This controlled exfoliation also supports collagen production, helping to refine, firm, and restore radiance over time.
At Dr. Andrea Hickey Medical Aesthetics, all peel treatments are carefully selected and performed by experienced skincare professionals to ensure safe, predictable, and natural-looking results.
What Can professional peels treat?
Professional peels are an effective option for:
Fine lines and early signs of ageing
Uneven tone and hyperpigmentation
Sun damage and age spots
Acne and post-inflammatory marks
Congestion and enlarged pores
Dull or lacklustre skin
They also enhance the absorption and performance of your at-home skincare, helping you achieve better long-term results.
How Do they Work?
Peels use controlled exfoliation to remove damaged surface cells and stimulate skin renewal. This process improves clarity, smoothness, and overall skin quality while supporting collagen production.
Each treatment is customized to your skin type, concerns, and tolerance for optimal results with minimal downtime.
What Is Treatment Like?
Appointments take approximately 15–30 minutes and begin with a thorough skin assessment.
The peel is applied in a controlled manner, and you may experience a mild tingling or warming sensation. After treatment, soothing products are applied to support the skin barrier.
Downtime is minimal. Some clients experience mild redness, dryness, or light flaking, although visible peeling is not required to achieve results.
Who Are PRofessional Peels For?
Professional peels are suitable for many skin types and are ideal if you are looking for:
A brighter, more radiant complexion
Smoother, more refined texture
Improvement in acne or congestion
Reduction in pigmentation
A refreshed, more youthful appearance
