Resurface, brighten and refresh — for clearer, healthier-looking skin. A professional treatment that gently lifts away dull surface cells and reveals fresher, more radiant skin beneath.
If your skin looks tired, congested or uneven, a professional chemical peel is one of the simplest and most effective ways to restore clarity, brightness and a healthy glow.
A chemical peel is a professional skin solution that gently exfoliates the surface of the skin and encourages natural renewal. Applied carefully by Lorraine, it works to lift away dull, tired cells and reveal the fresher, smoother skin beneath.
Peels have long been a trusted way to improve the health and appearance of the skin. Rather than sitting on the surface like a mask, the solution encourages your skin to renew itself — leaving it looking brighter, clearer and more even in tone. It's a versatile treatment that can be adapted to a wide range of skin concerns, from a simple radiance boost to more targeted resurfacing for pigmentation and congestion.
Because a peel improves the underlying condition of the skin rather than simply masking it, the results look natural and healthy. It's one of the reasons peels remain such a popular choice for anyone wanting genuinely clearer, fresher-looking skin without a lengthy or complicated routine.
Once applied, the peel loosens the bonds between dull surface cells so they can be gently shed. This resurfacing process stimulates fresh skin to come through, helping to soften the look of pigmentation, congestion and uneven texture.
By encouraging the skin to renew more efficiently, a peel can leave the complexion looking smoother, brighter and more refined — with results that build steadily over a recommended course. As the surface refreshes, skin can also feel cleaner and more balanced, and other products and skincare are often able to work more effectively on the newly resurfaced skin.
The exact effect depends on the peel chosen and the number of sessions, which is why Lorraine takes the time to assess your skin first and plan a course designed around your individual concerns.
No two complexions are the same, so the strength of your peel is chosen to suit your skin and your goals. At your consultation Lorraine will assess your skin and recommend the right approach for you — gentler for sensitive skin, or a little stronger where more resurfacing is needed.
For most concerns, a course gives the best results, with improvements that build session after session rather than from a single treatment. Working through a planned course also allows your skin to adjust gradually and comfortably, and lets Lorraine fine-tune the approach as your skin responds. The result is a treatment plan that's genuinely personal to you, rather than a one-size-fits-all peel.
We offer a small, carefully chosen range of medium-depth peels so your treatment can be matched to your skin and concern:

For the best results a course of peels is usually advised, spaced to suit your skin — Lorraine will tailor this to you.
You'll be given full aftercare advice, including the sun protection needed to protect your results.
Chemical peels are quick and well tolerated. Depending on the strength of your peel, you may notice some mild redness and light flaking for a few days as the skin renews. This is a normal part of the process and usually settles quickly, and many people find a gentler peel leaves little visible sign at all.
Because freshly resurfaced skin is more sensitive, daily sun protection is essential in the days and weeks afterwards to protect your skin and your results. Lorraine will guide you through exactly how to care for your skin, including what to use and what to avoid, so you get the very best from your treatment.

It depends on the strength of your peel. Many people experience only light flaking rather than dramatic peeling. Lorraine will let you know what to expect based on the peel that's right for your skin.
No. Most people feel only a mild tingling or warmth while the peel is on the skin, which settles quickly. It's a comfortable, straightforward treatment.
For most concerns a course of peels gives the best results, with improvements building session after session. Lorraine will recommend a plan tailored to your skin at your free consultation.
Very little. You may have a few days of mild redness and light flaking as the skin renews, which usually settles quickly. Most people carry on with their day as normal.
