EFFACÈ Glow Peel

Targeted Brightening for Melasma & Stubborn Pigmentation – A Two-Part Treatment Series

The EFFACÈ Glow Peel is a professionally compounded, medical-grade chemical peel meticulously formulated to address persistent pigmentation issues, particularly melasma. This comprehensive two-part treatment series combines potent, clinically proven ingredients to significantly enhance skin tone, texture, and overall radiance.

Treatment Overview:

  • Two In-Clinic Sessions: Administered 4-6 weeks apart to ensure optimal results.
  • Post-Peel Recovery Kit: Provided after the initial session to support skin during the peeling phase and enhance the brightening process.

Key Ingredients & Their Functions

  • Hydroquinone: A renowned skin-lightening agent that inhibits melanin production, effectively diminishing dark spots, melasma, and sun-induced pigmentation.
  • Azelaic Acid: Offers anti-inflammatory benefits, gently exfoliates, and reduces redness, making it effective
    for treating acne and rosacea-prone skin.
  • Retinoic Acid (Tretinoin): Accelerates cellular turnover, refines skin texture, unclogs pores, and stimulates collagen production, enhancing the efficacy of other active ingredients.
  • Kojic Acid: A natural compound that lightens visible sun damage, age spots, and scars by inhibiting melanin production.
  • Hydrocortisone: A mild corticosteroid that alleviates inflammation, redness, and irritation, ensuring a more comfortable post-peel experience.

Post-Peel Recovery Kit Includes:

  • Gentle Foaming Cleanser: Cleanses the skin without stripping essential moisture, maintaining balance during the recovery phase.
  • AloeCort Cream: A soothing blend of Hydrocortisone and Aloe Vera designed to calm irritation, reduce redness, and provide hydration.
  • Brightening Pads with Hydroquinone: Utilized after the peeling process concludes to continue addressing pigmentation and prevent its recurrence.

Ideal Candidates:

  • Individuals with melasma, sun damage, age spots, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
  • Those with acne-prone or uneven skin tones seeking a clearer complexion
  • Clients with non-sensitive skin types who are accustomed to active skincare ingredients
  • A great option for Rosacea-prone individuals due to the inclusion of calming, anti-inflammatory ingredients such as Azelaic acid and Hydrocortisone

Expected Outcomes:

  • Noticeable reduction in melasma and hyperpigmentation
  • Improved skin texture and tone
  • Diminished appearance of active breakouts and residual acne scars
  • Enhanced skin clarity and luminosity
  • Little to moderate peeling, depending on skin type and sensitivity

Important Considerations:

  • A personalized consultation is required prior to treatment to assess suitability and to develop an appropriate skin preparation and aftercare plan.
  • Service is only available to current facial clients. If you have not received a facial with us, please do not book this treatment. This treatment is at the aesthetician’s discretion.
