Chemical Peels and Masks

What are Chemical Peels and Masks?

Chemical peels are medical-grade peels for removing the top layer of dead skin cells to reveal fresh, healthy skin underneath.

Facial masks, a staple in a good skincare routine, deliver beneficial ingredients closer and deeper into your skin, infusing your pores and hydrating your skin.

Pairing chemical peels with facial masks allows the skincare ingredients in masks to be absorbed by the skin more deeply.

Benefits of Chemical Peels

  • Lighten pigmentation and acne scars
  • Brighten skin tone
  • Smooth uneven skin
  • Treat acne
  • Remove comedone
  • Reduce fine lines and wrinkles

How do Chemical Peels work?

This no downtime medical-grade procedure uses chemicals to achieve controlled-peeling of the skin to remove the top layer of dead and dull skin, comedones, and grime.

This speeds up the collagen remodelling of our skin, allowing the growth of new healthy skin which is smoother, younger, and with less wrinkles and blemishes.

There are various types of chemical peels available, and at Halley, we have three different types of chemical peels:

  1. Acne Peel (Salicylic Acid)
  2. Anti-Ageing Peel (Glycolic Acid)
  3. Whitening Peel (Lactic Acid + Glutathione + Whitening Peel)
  4. Undereye Revive Peel

Acne Peel

Halley’s Acne Peel is a salicylic acid treatment peel for getting rid of acne breakouts and controlling oily skin.

Salicylic acid cleanses the skin of acne-causing bacteria by exfoliating the top layer of unhealthy skin and unclogging pores. This deep cleansing process reduces sebum secretion and helps to prevent new acne growth. Salicylic acid is also an anti-inflammatory, which reduces swelling acne and calm inflamed acne.

Anti-Ageing Peel

As your skin metabolism drops when you age, this powerful yet gentle peel containing glycolic acid helps put your skin back on track by speeding up the skin renewal process. It sheds dead skin cells to reveal new, glowing, baby soft skin with fewer wrinkle lines.

It also lightens the pigmented, dark spots that you get from old acne scars, age spots, and sun damage. Best of all, the gentle peel is suitable for all skin types, even for sensitive skin.

Whitening Peel

This three-step treatment peel contains four ingredients typically known for skin lightening – lactic acid, glutathione, kojic acid, and arbutin – to brighten skin, lighten pigmentation, and even out skin tone.

Lactic acid peel: Mild, exfoliating milk peel. Lactic acid contains pigment inhibitors for reducing melanin production to lighten our skin colour.

Glutathione peel: Contains antioxidants to erase pigmentation. Reduces sun damage by removing damaged cells and encouraging the production of new cells.

Kojic acid with arbutin peel: Lightens dark sun spots and brightens the overall complexion by enhancing kojic acid’s whitening effect with arbutin’s ability to reduce melanin pigments in the skin.

Undereye Revive Peel

A no downtime treatment for individuals seeking to brighten their skin tone, improve their skin texture, and reduce pigmentation around the eyes. It is an ideal treatment for those are not suitable for IPL or laser treatments because they are constantly exposed to the sun. Some of the active ingredients includes:

Acid flower: Exfoliates, brightens, moisturises, enhances elasticity, smoothens wrinkles, and stimulates cell renewal for rejuvenated skin.Exfoliates, brightens, moisturises, enhances elasticity, smoothens wrinkles, and stimulates cell renewal for rejuvenated skin.

Lactobionic acid: Effectively moisturises, combats aging by eliminating free radicals, brightens and evens skin tone, reduces redness and irritation, and prevents spider veins.

Lactic acid: Stimulates ceramide production to retain moisture, seals the lipid barrier for moisture retention, and enhances skincare ingredient penetration for improved skin health.

Combining other treatments with Chemical Peels

Due to their exfoliating nature, peels prepare our skin so that it can absorb the nutritional benefits of other therapies that are often paired with peels. Masks and light therapies, for instance, are complementary treatments that are often done after peels.

Halley’s Rejuvenating Glycolic Peel with Vitamin C Infusion Treatment

The rejuvenating Anti-Ageing Peel (Glycolic Acid) is often paired with Halley’s Vitamin C Infusion Treatment. The anti-ageing peel first sloughs away dead skin which prepares the skin for maximum absorption of vitamin C serum via iontophoresis. Gentle electric pulses push the serum to where it is needed to heal photodamaged skin, rejuvenate the skin, improve skin tone, and treat acne.
