Medik8 Chemical Peels

Medik8 Chemical Peels

Three is the magic number – and the magic treatment with Medik8 chemical peel technology.

Both environmentally and vegan friendly, Medik8 concentrated peels use unique high-performance (low PH) acid combinations with time-release delivery systems.
The outcome is ‘never seen before’ anti-ageing.
The Medik8 philosophy is CSA, which simply stands for Vitamin C, Sunscreen and Vitamin A.

Vitamin C
Apply vitamin C in the morning for an all-day urban shield against everyday environmental factors which can cause skin ageing. Not to mention the incredible radiance this ingredient gives the skin. It’s glow in a bottle.

Sunscreen
Apply sunscreen daily without fail (even when it’s cloudy) to protect your skin from the sun’s damaging UVB (burning) and UVA (ageing) rays. We recommend a minimum SPF30 as your last step before makeup.

Vitamin A
Vitamin A is generally applied only at night. It is the gold-standard of anti-ageing. Highly regarded by dermatologists and skin therapists alike, it is second to none when it comes to improving signs of photoaging.

Sensitive PHA
For extremely sensitive or redness-prone skin to visibly smooth skin texture and help promote stronger skin barrier.
Universal AHA
Suitable for everyone and any skin concern, it visibly brightens, smooths, decongests and revitalises the skin. Ideal for first time peel or to maintain results from other peels.
