Chemical Peel Treatment Luxia

What Is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a professional skin-resurfacing treatment that uses a carefully selected solution to remove damaged surface cells and support skin renewal.

Depending on the peel used, treatment may work at a superficial or deeper level to improve the appearance and texture of the skin.

At Luxia, every peel is chosen with precision. Your practitioner will assess your skin and recommend the most appropriate formula and strength for your individual needs.

Results vary depending on the peel selected, your skin condition and the number of treatments completed.

Professional Peel Application

The peel solution is carefully applied for a controlled period of time. You may feel warmth, tingling or mild sensitivity during this stage.

What Does the Treatment Feel Like?

During the peel, you may experience a tingling, warming or mildly stinging sensation.

The intensity will depend on the type and strength of peel used. Your practitioner will monitor your skin throughout the treatment and ensure the application remains controlled.

Any discomfort is usually temporary.

What to Expect After Treatment

Your skin may appear pink, feel tight or become mildly sensitive after treatment.

Depending on the peel, you may also experience:

• Dryness

• Flaking

• Light peeling

• Temporary redness

• Increased sensitivity

• Mild darkening of pigmentation before it fades

Some peels involve little or no visible peeling, while others create more noticeable skin shedding over several days.

It is important not to pick or manually remove peeling skin.

Chemical Peel Aftercare

Following treatment, your skin may be more sensitive than usual. To protect the skin and support recovery, you may be advised to:

• Apply broad-spectrum SPF daily

• Avoid direct sun exposure

• Keep the skin gently moisturised

• Avoid exfoliating acids and retinoids

• Avoid scrubs and harsh skincare products

• Avoid excessive heat, steam and intense exercise for the recommended period

• Avoid picking or peeling the skin

• Follow the personalised skincare plan provided by your practitioner

Aftercare requirements vary according to the peel used.

When Will I See Results?

Skin may appear brighter and smoother once the initial sensitivity or peeling has settled.

Further improvements may develop over the following days and weeks as the skin renews.

For concerns such as pigmentation, acne, congestion or uneven texture, a course of treatments may be recommended.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

The number of sessions required will depend on:

• Your skin type

• Your main concerns

• The peel selected

• The condition of your skin

• Your desired result

• Your home skincare routine

Some clients choose a single peel before an occasion, while others benefit from a planned course followed by maintenance treatments.

Your Luxia practitioner will create a personalised schedule during your consultation.

Am I Suitable for a Chemical Peel?

Chemical Peels may be suitable for adults who want to improve skin tone, texture, radiance or congestion.

Treatment may need to be postponed or avoided if you:

• Are pregnant or breastfeeding

• Have an active skin infection

• Have open wounds or irritated skin

• Are experiencing an active cold sore outbreak

• Have recently used certain prescription skincare or medication

• Have recently undergone another resurfacing treatment

• Have a known allergy to any peel ingredients

• Have a condition that affects skin healing

A full consultation is required to confirm suitability.

Chemical Peels and Skin Tone

Chemical Peels can be suitable for a wide range of skin tones, but product selection, strength and preparation are especially important.

At Luxia, your skin will be assessed carefully to reduce the risk of irritation or post-inflammatory pigmentation. A patch test or preparatory skincare routine may be recommended before treatment.

Chemical Peel vs Facial

A traditional facial focuses on cleansing, hydration, relaxation and surface-level skin maintenance.

A Chemical Peel uses active ingredients to create a more intensive resurfacing effect. It may be more suitable for clients seeking improvement in concerns such as pigmentation, congestion, fine lines or uneven texture.

Your practitioner can advise which option best suits your skin.

Can Chemical Peels Be Combined with Other Treatments?

Chemical Peels may form part of a wider skin plan alongside treatments such as:

• Microneedling

• Skin Boosters

• LED light therapy

• Hydrating facials

• Professional skincare

• Other advanced skin treatments

Treatments may need to be spaced apart to protect the skin and support safe recovery.
