Q: What is a Superficial Peel?

Superficial peels involve the application of a mild chemical solution like salicylic acid or lower concentrations of glycolic acid, which effectively targets and clears out clogged pores, reduces the bacteria responsible for acne, and minimises inflammation. Benefits of Superficial Peels for Acne Reduced Acne and Breakouts: Clearer skin with fewer acne incidents. Decreased Oil Production: Helps in balancing skin oils. Minimised Pores: Appearance of smaller, less visible pores. Improved Skin Texture: Smoother skin with reduced acne scars.
