What is a glycolic skin peel?
There are several different types of skin peel. A glyolic peel is a superficial peel, which is perfect if you simply wish to replenish your skin and achieve a more youthful appearance.* Glycolic peels have no recovery time and you will be able to resume your daily routine almost immediately; if you are interested in a deeper skin peel, stronger concentration of glycolic peels can be applied or we recommend a TCA peel .*Results may vary from person to person

"I attended Dr. Leah Clinics in central London for a course of skin peels for sun damage. i had 5 of the recommended 6 treatments and was told I actually didnt need anymore. My skin was smooth, even and wrinkle free. I even compared images from 5 years previous and had lines across my forehead. These are all gone. I am very impressed and would absolutely recommend for the best quality." *
