What is a skin peel?
The top layer of your skin is composed of dead skin cells which make your skin look dull and tired. As you age your cell turnover slows down so this effect is particularly noticeable on older skin.
A skin peel is a chemical exfoliant that is applied to the skin to remove this dead layer. A sophisticated mixture of chemicals dissolves the bonds binding the dead cell layer to the layer beneath. The dead cells are sloughed away revealing the fresh and radiant skin beneath.
The effect of the treatment can cause a degree of skin peeling as the dead skin cells are discarded but this is temporary and well worth the result.

The Obagi Blue Peel at Simply Clinics
We are delighted to offer our Southgate clients the iconic Obagi Blue Peel. Obagi is a prestigious skincare company with an international reputation for the quality of its treatment and the Blue Peel does not disappoint.
The Blue Peel uses a combination of salicylic, lactic and glycolic acid to gently dissolve the dead skin cells from the upper layer of the skin. It also promotes the production of fresh, new skin cells leaving your skin looking smoother and brighter.
Fine lines will be softened. Scars, blemishes and areas of pigmentation will begin to fade.
Why is the Obagi Blue Peel different from other skin peels in Southgate?
The Blue Peel can be used at different strengths to address different skin issues. So, whether you are concerned about dull skin, acne scars or pigmentation, the Blue Peel is the right treatment for you.

How to care for your skin before and after your peel
There are a few guidelines to follow before and after your treatment that will help to ensure optimum effectiveness
Before your Peel
It is important to avoid products or treatments that may irritate your skin, including;
- Electrolysis, waxing, hair removal creams and laser hair removal (two weeks before treatment)
- Products containing active ingredients such as retinol, glycolic and lactic acid (one week before treatment)
- Exfoliating products (24 hours before treatment)
After your peel
We advise clients to avoid the following to keep their skin calm;
- Strenuous activity or exercise ( 24 hours)
- Skin products containing Alpha Hydroxy Acids or Beta Hydroxy Acids (24 hours)
- Other facial treatment (one week)
- direct sunlight (two weeks)
- Picking spots or peeling off dry skin (ever!)
You should use a gentle cleanser for sensitive skin and keep your skin hydrated. Sunscreen of at least factor 30 is more important than ever after your peel and should be used for at least two weeks.
How many treatments will I need?
You will notice a significant improvement in your skin after just one treatment. However, profound skin issues may require up to six treatments for full resolution. You should schedule each treatment with a four-week interval.
How long does a skin peel take?
The process takes about 30-45 minutes
Is a chemical peel painful?
As the peel does its work, you may feel a warm or tingling sensation but there is no pain during this treatment.
Are the effects of the treatment permanent?
The effects can be permanent for some skin problems. Your therapist will discuss the longevity of the benefits for your skin at your free consultation.
How much does a skin peel cost?
The Obagi peel costs from £80, with a course of three available for £200 or six for £400.
