Gentler resurfacing than a medical peel — for tone, fine lines and early texture.
Book Retinol Peel ☁️
A retinol peel works more gradually than a medical-grade peel. Rather than stripping the surface aggressively, it accelerates cell turnover, which suits early fine lines, uneven tone and mild texture — and suits people who can't take a week of visible peeling.
Expect light flaking around day three rather than sheets coming off. Many people run a series of these through autumn and winter, when sun exposure is easier to control.
There's also a chemical peel available as a $110 add-on to a facial if you want resurfacing built into a longer appointment rather than booked on its own.
Questions about retinol peel
Retinol peel or Perfect Derma Peel?
The Perfect Derma Peel is stronger, targets pigmentation specifically, and involves real peeling for about a week. A retinol peel is gentler, better for tone and early lines, and produces light flaking instead. If pigmentation is the main complaint, the medical peel does more.
Can I use my retinoid before a peel?
Stop prescription retinoids about five to seven days beforehand, and tell me what you're using. Coming in on active tretinoin makes the skin considerably more reactive.
How soon can I wear makeup?
Generally the next day, though skin will be more sensitive. During any flaking phase, heavy makeup tends to cling to the peeling edges and look worse rather than better.
