Combined Microneedling & Chemical Peel

It combines microneedling and chemical exfoliation to target different layers of the skin. Microneedling stimulates collagen and elastin production, while the chemical peel removes surface dead skin cells and helps improve tone and texture.

Combining microneedling with a chemical peel allows us to target multiple skin concerns more intensively, working at different levels of the skin. Together, the treatments can help improve uneven texture, dullness, superficial pigmentation, fine lines, enlarged pores and certain types of acne scarring.

Combined microneedling and chemical peel treatment is not suitable for every skin type or skin condition. Suitability depends on your individual skin, concerns, medical history and the chemical peel selected. It is also not suitable following recent significant sun exposure. We recommend allowing at least 4 weeks before and after a sunny holiday or significant sun exposure before having treatment, as this helps reduce the risk of pigmentation changes. Your practitioner will assess your skin during your consultation and recommend the safest and most appropriate treatment option.
