Your skin type, concerns and treatment suitability are assessed.
Dermedics Chemical Peels
Professional-grade 40% chemical peels selected according to your skin type and concerns, helping to improve texture, clarity, hydration, pigmentation and visible signs of ageing.
What Is a Chemical Peel?
A professional chemical peel uses a carefully selected acid formulation to remove accumulated dead skin cells and encourage healthy cellular renewal.
Dermedics 40% peels are available in glycolic, lactic and mandelic formulations. Each peel has different properties and may be selected according to your skin type, sensitivity and primary concerns.
Every treatment begins with a detailed skin consultation so the most appropriate peel strength, preparation and aftercare can be recommended.
The selected peel is professionally applied and carefully monitored.
The peel is neutralised and completed with soothing, protective skincare.

Discover Treatment →Dermedics Glycolic Peel 40%
The Dermedics Glycolic Peel 40% is a professional-grade chemical peel designed to exfoliate the skin, stimulate cellular renewal and reveal a brighter, smoother and more even complexion.
Formulated with 40% glycolic acid, this advanced treatment penetrates the upper layers of the skin to gently remove dead skin cells, helping to improve dullness, uneven texture, superficial pigmentation, acne-prone skin and early signs of ageing.
Suitable for clients seeking visible skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime, this peel leaves the skin looking fresher, healthier and more radiant.
The treatment helps to improve:
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Fine lines and early signs of ageing
- Superficial pigmentation and sun damage
- Congested and acne-prone skin
- Enlarged pores and overall skin clarity
Following a thorough skin consultation and preparation, the peel is carefully applied before being neutralised and finished with soothing, hydrating skincare. Mild redness or light flaking may occur as the skin renews itself. A personalised course may be recommended for progressive results.
Dermedics Lactic Peel 40%
The Dermedics Lactic Peel 40% is a gentle yet highly effective chemical peel designed to brighten, hydrate and revitalise the skin while improving overall tone and texture.
Formulated with 40% lactic acid, this treatment gently exfoliates the skin's surface, encouraging healthy cell renewal without excessive irritation.
It is particularly beneficial for dry, dehydrated, sensitive or mature skin, helping to restore a smoother, softer and more radiant complexion while supporting the skin's natural moisture balance.
The treatment helps to improve:
- Dull and dehydrated skin
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Fine lines and early signs of ageing
- Mild pigmentation and sun damage
- Dry, rough or flaky skin
- Overall skin brightness and hydration
Following a comprehensive consultation, the peel is carefully applied before being neutralised and finished with soothing, hydrating skincare. With minimal downtime, the skin is left feeling refreshed, hydrated and noticeably smoother. A personalised course may be recommended.
Dermedics Mandelic Peel 40%
The Dermedics Mandelic Peel 40% is a professional chemical peel formulated to gently exfoliate, brighten and clarify the skin while being suitable for sensitive and acne-prone complexions.
Powered by 40% mandelic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid derived from bitter almonds, this peel penetrates the skin more slowly than glycolic acid. This makes it an excellent choice for reducing irritation while improving texture, congestion, pigmentation and visible signs of ageing.
It may be particularly beneficial for oily, blemish-prone, rosacea-prone or darker skin tones, subject to professional assessment.
The treatment helps to improve:
- Acne and blemish-prone skin
- Post-acne marks and pigmentation
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Enlarged and congested pores
- Fine lines and early signs of ageing
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- Excess oil production
Following a comprehensive consultation, the peel is carefully applied before being neutralised and completed with calming, hydrating skincare. With minimal downtime, the complexion is left looking clearer, brighter and more refined. A personalised course may be recommended for optimal results.
How Does a Chemical Peel Work?
Every peel appointment is carefully planned according to your skin type, concerns, sensitivity and selected formulation.
Consultation
Your skin condition, medical history, concerns and suitability are professionally assessed.
Skin Preparation
The treatment area is cleansed and prepared before the selected peel is applied.
Peel Application
The formulation is applied for a controlled period while your skin is carefully monitored.
Neutralise & Soothe
The peel is neutralised before calming, hydrating and protective products are applied.
Your Skin Assessment
Chemical peels must be selected according to your individual skin. Your consultation allows us to assess your skin type, sensitivity, current condition and primary concerns.
We will also review relevant medical history, current skincare, recent treatments and any factors that may affect your suitability or recovery.
Your practitioner will explain the recommended formulation, possible skin responses, downtime, aftercare and realistic outcomes before treatment.
Your consultation helps determine:
- Your skin type and current skin condition
- Your primary concerns and treatment goals
- The most appropriate acid formulation
- Whether skin preparation is required
- Your expected recovery and downtime
- A suitable treatment-course schedule
Which Dermedics Peel Is Right for You?
Your practitioner will select the most appropriate formulation according to your skin type, sensitivity and concerns.
Glycolic Peel
Often selected for dullness, congestion, uneven texture, superficial pigmentation, enlarged pores and early signs of ageing.
Lactic Peel
Often selected for dry, dehydrated, sensitive or mature skin requiring gentler exfoliation, softness and improved hydration.
Mandelic Peel
Often selected for oily, blemish-prone, sensitive or pigmentation-prone skin requiring gradual, controlled exfoliation.
Important: The most suitable peel cannot be selected from skin concerns alone. Your complete skin condition, sensitivity, medical history and current skincare must also be assessed. Individual results vary and no particular outcome can be guaranteed.
Chemical Peel Aftercare
Personalised aftercare instructions will be provided following your treatment. General guidance may include the following.
Protect Your Skin
Use the recommended broad-spectrum sun protection and avoid unnecessary direct sun exposure while the skin is renewing.
Keep Skincare Gentle
Use gentle, hydrating skincare and avoid strong active ingredients until your practitioner advises that they can be reintroduced.
Do Not Pick or Exfoliate
Allow any dryness or light flaking to resolve naturally. Picking or exfoliating may irritate the skin and affect recovery.
Follow Your Treatment Plan
Attend recommended review or treatment appointments and contact the clinic if you experience an unexpected skin reaction.
