What Are Facial Peels?
Facial peels use active acids and resurfacing formulations to remove accumulated surface skin cells, helping to improve the appearance of dullness, uneven tone, texture and early signs of ageing. At Lush Beauty Essex, peels range from the gentle Resurface Peel, a good starting point for first time peel clients, through to more advanced options such as PRX-T33, BioRePeel and Jalupro Glow Peel, which combine exfoliating acids with revitalising and hydrating ingredients. Downtime varies by treatment and by individual skin response, from minimal for the gentler options to mild redness, tightness or light flaking with some of the more active formulations. A skin peel consultation is recommended before your first treatment, so the right peel and protocol can be chosen for your skin.
Facial Peel Treatments and Prices
A consultation and skin assessment may be required before your first peel, particularly for the more advanced treatments.
What to Expect From
Your Peel
Before more advanced peels, a skin peel consultation is recommended to review your skin concerns, medical and skincare history, and current products, so the right treatment and protocol can be chosen. On the day, your skin is cleansed and prepared before the chosen peel is applied. Downtime varies by treatment, from minimal for the gentler Resurface Peel through to possible mild redness, tightness or light flaking with some of the more active formulations, depending on your individual skin response. Following recommended aftercare and daily SPF afterwards is essential for protecting the skin and maintaining your results.
Why Choose Lush Beauty Essex for Facial Peels
Peels work at different depths and strengths, so choosing the right one and using it correctly matters. Albina holds a Level 7 qualification in Aesthetics alongside extensive UK training, and carries out every peel and consultation personally in her private Buckhurst Hill studio. Because she sees the same clients for consultations and follow up treatments, she can track how your skin responds over time and adjust your protocol accordingly, rather than starting from scratch with a different therapist at each visit.
Helping people look and feel their best.
Who Facial Peels Suit
Facial peels suit a wide range of concerns, from a first time client wanting a gentle introduction to a more experienced peel client dealing with pigmentation, uneven tone or early signs of ageing. Before booking, clients should disclose current medications and topical treatments, recent retinoid use, recent waxing, threading or laser treatments, active cold sores or skin infections, pregnancy or breastfeeding, known allergies, previous reactions to chemical peels, recent sun exposure or tanning, and any history of abnormal scarring or pigmentation changes, since these can all affect suitability.
