Pigmentation

Think of a chemical peel as your ticket to refreshed, younger-looking skin.

A procedure designed to enhance the skin's appearance, chemical peels are used by aesthetic surgeons across the world. With the expert hands of Dr. Rippon, the procedure involves the meticulous application of powerful solutions to targeted areas like the face, décolletage, or hands. These solutions work their magic, prompting the old, dead skin cells to peel away, revealing smoother, more refined skin beneath.

However, not all chemical peels are the same. Your skin is unique, and your treatment should be, too. Depending on your skin type and the results you aim for, there's a myriad of preparations available. Moreover, these pigmentation treatments also help treat various other issues including:

• Fine lines and wrinkles, softening their appearance.
• Uneven skin tone and texture, balancing and revitalising.
• Mild to moderate photodamage, reversing the effects of the sun.
• Acne and its stubborn scars, providing clarity and smoothness.

The "Obagi Blue Peel Radiance" is one such marvel. Even after a single application, your skin tone and texture undergo a noticeable transformation. And with three peels? Radiance is redefined. It not only improves the skin's appearance but also actively fights signs of ageing and photodamage.

Medical-grade chemical peels exfoliate the top layer of skin; not only does this reveal the younger, fresher looking layer underneath, but it also stimulates the production of elastin and collagen within the skin to result in a fresher and brighter appearance.

Chemical peels provide long-lasting results all over the treated area, improving the look of discoloration whilst reducing the looks of fine lines, wrinkles and pigmentation. Chemical peels are an ideal choice for anyone wanting to improve the look of their skin, and Rippon Medical Services are able to help patients achieve a number of skin goals. Whether you want to treat a specific skin issue or just want to rejuvenate the look of tired skin to achieve a more youthful appearance, a chemical peel is a safe and effective way to achieve the look you want.

Immediately after treatment there is a noticeable improvement in skin texture.

The peel will improve skin tone and texture helping to minimise skin ageing by targeting fine lines, and photo damage and reducing pores.

Obagi Blue Peel Radiance contain medical-grade strength ingredients and are supported by clinical evidence to prove that they work.

You will see an immediate result of fresher, brighter skin following a peel. For best results we recommend a course of six peels. Results depend on the individual, but can last for up to six months.

During your initial consultation Dr Rippon will assess your skin type, condition and your overall medical history, before discussing your skin goals and recommending a suitable treatment plan. He will advise on the most suitable peel or combination of peels, the number of treatments and time between each treatment, and what follow-up skincare regime will give you the best results.

Dr Rippon may recommend some skincare for you to use, to prepare your skin for the peels to ensure the best results.

When you return for your peel, Dr Rippon will cleanse your skin, prepare it for the chemical peel with a pre-treatment. They will then apply the peel and leave that on the skin for a period of time. A neutralising agent is normally applied at this point to prevent any further exfoliation or reaction to the skin. Dr Rippon will remove all of the peel active ingredients and normally apply a moisturiser and sunblock prior to you leaving. Treatment will last 30-45 minutes.

During the treatment, you may feel a slight heat or tingling sensation, but this is completely normal, and will eventually subside. There is no downtime or recovery period associated with the treatment, so you can return to your normal routine immediately following a chemical peel. Some patients report some minor skin peeling in the two to five days following treatment, after which tangible results can be seen. For the best results, we recommend sessions of three to six treatments carried out every two to four weeks.

Prior to your treatment you will have a consultation to ensure that the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is appropriate for your needs. At this stage we will discuss the treatment and answer any questions you may have.

• It is suitable for all skin types- including sensitive
• You will see the benefits immediately after the treatment
• This treatment is not suitable for people who are allergic to aspirin, pregnant or breast feeding.

Other known side effects of skin peels are immediate stinging or burning, flushing or erythema that may last 1-2 hours or longer, epidermolysis (whitening), peeling may occur and a marked reaction can last up to 3 weeks with erythema and crusting.
