How many sessions do I need?

Mandelic Peels are best delivered in a course of 3 to 6 peels. These are recommended fortnightly over a 12-week period combined with the appropriate homecare to deliver best results. Follow up peels are recommended every 8 to 12 weeks to maintain results as well as continuing with prescribed homecare.

What does it feel like?

The Mandelic peel has been formulated as the perfect painless peel to introduce clients to more advanced performance based skin treatments with little to no downtime. A warm sensation followed by a mild prickling is all that is felt.

How will my skin look?

• Mild redness initially
• Some skins may experience mild flaking 1 to 2 days after the peel however, this is not necessary for the peel to work.
