If your skin looks dull, uneven, congested or tired, a professional chemical peel could help restore a smoother, brighter and more refreshed appearance. At The Lanes Health and Beauty, our Brighton skin experts offer three carefully selected chemical peel treatments to suit a range of skin concerns and goals: iS Clinical Fire & Ice, Medik8 and Jan Marini.
Whether you are looking to improve the appearance of fine lines, pigmentation, blemishes or lacklustre skin, our team can recommend the most suitable peel for your complexion.
What is a chemical peel?
A chemical peel is a professional skin treatment that uses a carefully selected blend of acids and active ingredients to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin. This process can help encourage fresher-looking skin, improve texture and support a more even-looking complexion.
Depending on the formulation, a chemical peel may help target:
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Uneven skin tone
- Pigmentation and sun damage
- Fine lines and signs of ageing
- Congested pores
- Blemishes and breakout-prone skin
- Rough or uneven skin texture
- Acne scarring
The strength and ingredients used will depend on your skin type, sensitivity and desired results. A consultation is always recommended before treatment.
Our chemical peels in Brighton
iS Clinical Fire & Ice Peel
The iS Clinical Fire & Ice Peel is a popular professional treatment designed to visibly resurface and refresh the skin. Often described as a results-focused facial peel, it combines a warming “Fire” resurfacing step with a cooling “Ice” rejuvenating step.
This treatment may be suitable for clients who want to improve the appearance of:
- Dullness and lack of radiance
- Uneven skin texture
- Fine lines
- Congestion
- Enlarged-looking pores
- Blemishes and breakout-prone skin
The iS Clinical Fire & Ice Peel is often chosen before a special occasion because it can leave the skin looking smoother, brighter and more refreshed. However, your skin may experience temporary warmth, tingling or redness during and after the treatment.
Medik8 Chemical Peels
Medik8 chemical peels are professional treatments designed to address a variety of skin concerns using targeted active ingredients. Medik8 is known for combining advanced skincare science with formulations designed to support healthy-looking, radiant skin.
A Medik8 peel may be suitable for clients concerned with:
- Pigmentation and uneven skin tone
- Dull or lacklustre skin
- Fine lines and visible signs of ageing
- Congestion and blemishes
- Uneven texture
- Skin that feels rough or tired
The precise Medik8 peel selected will depend on your skin and treatment objectives. Your therapist will assess your complexion and recommend the most appropriate option, helping to ensure the treatment is tailored to your needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Jan Marini Chemical Peels
Jan Marini chemical peels are designed to support smoother, brighter and more even-looking skin. They can be tailored to help address concerns such as pigmentation, blemishes, ageing skin and uneven texture.
A Jan Marini peel may be a good choice for clients looking to improve:
- Sun-damaged or uneven-looking skin
- Pigmentation
- Fine lines
- Congested pores
- Blemishes
- Dullness
- Overall skin texture and radiance
Jan Marini treatments can form part of a wider professional skincare plan, particularly when combined with an appropriate homecare routine. Your therapist will advise you on the best way to prepare for and care for your skin after treatment.
Which chemical peel is right for your skin?
The best chemical peel for you will depend on your skin type, sensitivity, current condition and the results you would like to achieve.
Choose iS Clinical Fire & Ice if:
- You want a brightening, resurfacing treatment
- Your skin looks dull or tired
- You are concerned with congestion or uneven texture
- You want a refreshed-looking complexion
- You are looking for a popular pre-event treatment, subject to professional advice
Choose Medik8 if:
- You want a targeted treatment for a specific skin concern
- You are concerned with pigmentation, blemishes or fine lines
- You would benefit from a tailored skincare approach
- You want to combine professional treatments with a suitable Medik8 homecare routine
Choose Jan Marini if:
- You are concerned with uneven tone or sun damage
- You want to improve the appearance of fine lines and texture
- You are looking for a professional treatment that can support an ongoing skincare programme
- You would like advice on combining in-clinic treatment with homecare
The most suitable treatment cannot always be decided by skin concern alone. Factors such as sensitivity, active breakouts, recent sun exposure, medication, previous treatments and your existing skincare routine must also be considered.
What happens during a chemical peel consultation?
Before your chemical peel in Brighton, your therapist will discuss your skin concerns, medical history and skincare routine. Your skin will be assessed and you will be advised on the most suitable peel for your needs.
You may also receive guidance about:
- Preparing your skin before treatment
- Which active skincare ingredients to pause
- What to expect during the peel
- Possible redness, tingling or peeling
- How to care for your skin afterwards
- Sun protection and avoiding excessive heat or sun exposure
Following your aftercare advice is an important part of achieving the best possible results.
Chemical peel aftercare
Your skin may feel warm, tight or sensitive after a peel, depending on the treatment used. Some clients may experience mild redness or peeling. It is important to avoid picking or pulling at flaking skin and to use the recommended skincare products.
After your treatment, you should generally:
- Use a gentle cleanser
- Apply recommended moisturiser
- Wear broad-spectrum SPF daily
- Avoid excessive sun exposure
- Avoid exfoliating products unless advised
- Follow your therapist’s specific aftercare instructions
Your therapist will explain exactly what is recommended for your skin.
