What are Skin Peels
Chemical peels utilise the exfoliating properties of naturally occurring acids to achieved skin that is smoother in texture and more evenly pigmented by stimulating new cell growth and collagen production revealing a brighter, fresher, clearer skin.
At Ahmeys Clinic we offer a range of industry-leading skin peels that involves adding a non-toxic chemical solution to the skin which removes the top layer of dead skin cells and encourages new cell growth revealing a smoother, softer skin beneath.
