Overview

A professional-grade peel for brighter, smoother skin with no recovery time

SkinCeuticals is a science-led skincare brand whose formulations are grounded in decades of skin research and used by dermatologists and aesthetic practitioners worldwide. The SkinCeuticals Gel Peel GL brings that clinical credibility to an in-clinic peel that is suitable for virtually every skin type.

The peel combines glycolic acid and lactic acid to accelerate the skin's natural cell turnover. Dead surface cells are lifted away while the acids simultaneously stimulate the production of new collagen, elastin and the hydrating molecules that keep skin plump. The result is a noticeably brighter, smoother and more radiant complexion, with no significant recovery time.

Often called a party peel because it can be done shortly before an event, the Gel Peel GL is an ideal introduction to professional treatments and can also be used alongside microneedling or IPL to enhance and prolong their results.

What to expect

Your treatment journey

  1. 1

    Consultation

    We assess your skin type and concerns, confirm the peel is appropriate for you and discuss what to expect from the treatment and results.

  2. 2

    Treatment

    The skin is cleansed, the peel solution is applied and left to work briefly, then neutralised and removed. The session takes around thirty to forty-five minutes and requires no anaesthetic.

  3. 3

    Aftercare

    Your skin may feel slightly tight and appear more radiant immediately. Some mild flaking is possible over the following days. We advise daily SPF and recommend a skincare routine to maintain the results.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Is this a suitable first peel?

Yes. The Gel Peel GL is the entry-level peel in the SkinCeuticals range and is designed for all skin types, including sensitive skin. It is the ideal introduction to professional-grade chemical peels.

Will my skin peel visibly?

Visible peeling is minimal and not guaranteed. Some patients experience light flaking in the days following treatment; others notice only a brighter, refreshed complexion without obvious shedding.

How many treatments will I need?

Many patients see a noticeable improvement after a single session, but a course of treatments spaced a few weeks apart delivers more sustained results. Your practitioner will advise based on your skin goals.

Can it be combined with other treatments?

Yes. The Gel Peel GL is used as a companion treatment for microneedling and IPL at Maison Restorative, helping to extend and enhance their results.

Is there anything I should avoid before my peel?

We ask that you avoid retinoid-based products for a few days before treatment and arrive with no active sunburn. Your practitioner will give you a full pre-treatment checklist at consultation.

How much does a SkinCeuticals peel cost?

Pricing depends on the treatment and what is agreed for you and is confirmed in writing at your consultation, with no obligation to proceed.
