Skin Restoration and Peel Programmes

Your skin is your body's biggest organ and is subject to the ravages of life and the elements. As a result of this it can be left uneven, wrinkled, scarred and pigmented. Now you can peel this damage away and reveal a smoother, fresher and younger looking you.

The Obagi Nu-Derm system is the leading clinically tested FDA approved skin system and this prescription strength treatment actually corrects the functions and health of your skin. Your skin is rejuvenated at a cellular level resulting in skin that looks and acts younger and healthier.

This regime is suitable for all skin types and effective in the treatment of the following:

Reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Uneven rough skin
Reducing pore size
Fading acne scarring
Reducing age spots and pigmentation.

I use this system in conjunction with a TCA Easy Peel to provide a truly dramatic result.

The TCA Peel works by causing the top layers of skin to dry up and flake off. When the old skin has peeled off, it exposes a new layer of undamaged skin which has a smoother texture and more even skin colour.

Treatment is administered in a single session approximately 6 weeks after starting the Nu-Derm programme. It is painted onto the skin, this will make the skin tingle and feel warm this shows the product is working. Post treatment creams are applied once the desired level is achieved, which will stop the irritation.
With the damaged top layer removed the skin highly benefits from the active ingredients in the Nu-Derm range which are able to penetrate the new skin.

Aftercare

The skin will initially feel tight and regular application of post treatment creams will be required. You skin will flake after 3-5 days and this can last for up to 10 days depending on the depth of the peel. The peeling varies from individual to individual and this should be taken into account when scheduling your peel.
Your skin will be very sensitive to the sunlight for at least 6-8 weeks following the peel, for this reason we advise the use of a sunscreen of at least SPF30, and the avoidance of direct sunlight. Planning of holidays and important events should be considered before undertaking the peel.
