Refresh And Revitalise Your Skin with a Chemical Peel in Brisbane

medical-grade solutions tailored to UNIQUE Skin concerns

At Queensland Skin and Laser in Brisbane, our team offers medical-grade chemical peels designed to support a range of common skin concerns. By using professional SkinCeuticals formulations, our treatments gently resurface the skin by exfoliating the outer layers, stimulating cell turnover, and encouraging new cell regeneration.

Whether your skin feels dehydrated, has uneven tone, rough texture, or is prone to breakouts, including those experiencing active acne, our experienced dermal clinicians can assess your skin and recommend a chemical peel tailored to your unique needs. This personalised approach helps support your skin’s natural renewal process, working towards a smoother, healthier, and more refreshed complexion.

What Is A Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a professional skin treatment that uses a medical-grade solution to carefully exfoliate the skin’s outer layers. At Queensland Skin and Laser, we use SkinCeuticals professional peels, which contain clinically tested ingredients such as alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) and beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs).

Through this controlled process, dull, damaged cells in the epidermis (the outmost layer of the skin) are gently removed, stimulating cell turnover and encouraging the regeneration of new skin cells. As older cells are replaced, your skin’s natural renewal cycle is supported.

Chemical peels assist in removing surface skin cells and supporting healthy cell turnover for refreshed, balanced skin.

How Do CHEMICAL PEELS Work?

A chemical peel works by applying a carefully selected solution of medical-grade acid to the skin. These active ingredients dissolve the bonds between dead or damaged cells in the epidermis, allowing them to shed more easily.

As the outer layers exfoliate, new cells are generated in the basal layer of the epidermis. Consequently, fresh cells replace older ones. Depending on the type and depth of peel, the treatment may also stimulate activity in the upper dermis, encouraging collagen production and improved skin structure.

Experience a refreshed, radiant complexion with a medical-grade chemical peel at Queensland Skin and Laser. Our dermal clinicians tailor every treatment to your skin’s unique needs.

WHY are chemical peels Effective?

Chemical peels gently remove the outer layer of your skin, helping to shed dull, damaged cells. By supporting your skin’s natural renewal process, peels encourage fresh skin cells to replace older ones.

As a result, this process can assist with common concerns such as uneven skin tone, rough texture, or mild congestion. Additioanlly, depending on the peel used, it may also help strengthen the skin’s underlying structure.

Skin Concerns Chemical Peels Can Treat

Medical-grade chemical peels can be suitable for people with mild to moderate skin concerns. These treatments work by gently exfoliating the outer layers of skin and supporting the natural renewal process. Chemical peels may assist with:

  • Dehydrated skin

BENEFITS OF Medical-Grade Chemical Peels

Patients in Brisbane choose chemical peels to support healthier-looking skin. Benefits may include:

  • Smoother, more radiant skin: By removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, the fresh skin beneath is revealed, helping reduce the appearance of fine lines and improving overall texture.
  • Reduced acne and congestion: Chemical peels help unclog pores and may support a more balanced oil production.
  • Brighter, more even skin tone: Peels can assist in breaking down pigmentation, helping to create a clearer, more uniform complexion.
  • Support skin repair: The treatment may stimulate the skin’s natural repair process, supporting collagen and elastin production, which can help improve the appearance of minor scarring, fine lines, and enlarged pores.

If you’re curious about how a chemical peel could refresh your skin, book a consultation with our dermal clinicians.

Am I a Suitable Candidate for a Chemical Peel?

Chemical peels can be tailored to suit a variety of skin types and concerns. You may be a suitable candidate if you:

  • Have sensitive skin or conditions like rosacea, as treatments can be customised.
  • Are seeking a quick, in-clinic procedure (most peels take under 30 minutes).
  • Prefer minimal downtime while supporting a fresher, more radiant appearance.
  • Want to reduce congestion and calm inflamed skin.
  • Wish to smooth and refine the skin while encouraging natural renewal in the deeper layers.
  • Are preparing for more advanced treatments, as peels can help remove old skin cells, improve product absorption, and support the skin’s barrier function.

Unsure which peel is right for you? During a complimentary consultation, one of our experienced dermal clinicians will assess your skin and recommend the most suitable peel for your type and goals.

Consultation, Treatment & Aftercare Chemical Peel Brisbane

A consultation with one of our experienced dermal clinicians will determine the most suitable peel for your skin type and goals.

Consultation
Every treatment begins with a complimentary consultation and skin analysis using a SkinScope. This allows our clinicians to examine the deeper layers of your skin and determine the most suitable peel and peel intensity for your concerns.

Preparation & Cleansing
Your skin is thoroughly cleansed and prepped to ensure even application and optimal results.

Application & Neutralisation
Next, the chemical solution is carefully applied for a controlled amount of time. A mild tingling or warmth is normal during this process. After the peel is neutralised, soothing products and sunscreen are applied. LED therapy can be offered as an optional add-on to support recovery and enhance outcomes.

Aftercare & Results
Most SkinCeuticals peels involve little to no downtime. Some redness, dryness, or light flaking may occur for a few days. Skin is more sensitive to UV exposure after a peel, so daily SPF is essential. You will receive detailed aftercare instructions to help protect your skin. Over the following days, improvements in tone, texture, and clarity may become noticeable and can continue to develop with a series of treatments.

Possible Risks or Side Effects CHEMICAL PEEL

Medical-grade chemical peels are generally safe when performed by experienced dermal clinicians. However, as with all skin treatments, some side effects may occur:

  • Redness and mild irritation: Your skin may feel warm, tingly, or slightly red for a few hours to a few days after treatment.
  • Dryness or flaking: Peeling or dryness is a normal part of the skin renewal process.
  • Changes in skin colour: Temporary lightening or darkening of the skin may occur, particularly in individuals with darker skin tones.
  • Breakouts or milia: Small white bumps or temporary acne flares can occasionally develop.
  • Sensitivity: Your skin will be more sensitive to sun exposure following a peel, so diligent SPF use is essential.

Your dermal clinician will discuss potential risks and provide detailed aftercare instructions to help reduce side effects and protect your skin.
