Skin Peels – Ameson MesoPeel

Rejuvenate and freshen the appearance of the skin by removing the outer layers of dead skin to reveal new skin below.

What are skin peels?

Skin peels are chemicals applied to the skin to aid in the removal of old skin layers to induce new skin production. They exfoliate the outer layers of dead skin, revealing a new skin layer with improved tone, texture, and colour. Those used at TK Aesthetics are primarily alpha and beta hydroxy acids. They include Mandelic, Salicylic, Lactic and Glycolic Acids. Skin Peels can combined with other treatments to provide Advanced Treatments including combined with Micro-Needling. See our Specialty Treatments.

What issues are addressed?

Skin peels are primarily used for improvement of skin texture, pigmentation, reduction of fine lines and wrinkles and can help improve skin tone. Regular treatments can help improve the appearance of scarring incl. acne scarring. They are most commonly used on the face but can also be used on the back, abdomen and chest to improve imperfections.

How quickly does it work and how long will it last?

Some of the effects of the peels can be seen immediately. There may be some erythema (redness) that usually subsides and is usually short lasting but may persist over the next 24 hours. You may experience some dryness as the skin sheds but using appropriate products will help in maximise the treatment. Over the following few days the skin will look fresh and rejuvinated.
Depending on your treatment goals and the strength of the peel they can be repeated weekly to attain an initial result and then monthly to maintain skin appearance.

What are the products used?

At TK Aesthetics we use the Ameson MesoPeel Range from Juliette Armand.

Are they safe?

The peels that we use at TK Aesthetics are designed to be relatively superficial allowing for minimal down time and flexibility. They are safe when administered appropriately and the correct aftercare is followed.
