By combining the best active skincare ingredients for at-home use with personalised Medik8 peel treatments, your most radiant skin is closer than you think. Let us guide you through this transformative process.

Step 1: Personalised Consultation

Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation where we’ll discuss your skin concerns and goals. During this session, we’ll create a bespoke treatment plan tailored just for you, including a skin patch test to ensure the best possible results.

Step 2: CSA Product Routine

To maximise the effectiveness of your peel course, we recommend following a CSA product routine for a minimum of 2 weeks before starting your treatments.

CSA stands for:
• C: Vitamin C and sunscreen during the day
• S: Sunscreen to protect your skin
• A: Vitamin A at night

This powerful combination is our core philosophy for Beautiful Skin for Life, helping to maintain healthy, glowing skin.

Step 3: Medik8 Peel Treatments

Once your CSA routine is in place, you’ll begin your course of 6 Medik8 peels, scheduled every 2 weeks. These peels are designed to deeply rejuvenate and transform your skin. Over the 12-week course, you will see gradual improvements in texture, tone, and radiance, with each peel working to enhance your skin’s overall appearance.

Step 4: Post-Peel Care

A post-peel mini kit is included with the course, providing everything you need to nourish and care for your skin between treatments, ensuring your skin stays protected and hydrated.

Your Transformation Awaits

By completing the Stage 1 peel course, you’ll experience a noticeable skin transformation, leaving you with glowing, rejuvenated skin. It’s the perfect way to achieve your best-ever skin! Want more information read our 12 weeks to wow blog.

Your Medik8 Skin Peels Advice


If you’re looking for a treatment that delivers real, visible results and are ready to step up from a regular facial, Medik8 Skin Peels are the perfect solution. These peels target a range of skin concerns, including pigmentation, fine lines, uneven skin tone, textured skin, acne scars, breakouts, blemishes, and even sensitive skin.

What’s truly special about Medik8 peels is that they are fully customisable to your skin’s needs. For example, if you're concerned about anti-ageing but also want to manage breakouts, we may start with peels to target acne. Once that’s under control, we can shift the focus to anti-ageing treatments. Your skin will guide us, and we’ll adjust your treatment plan as we go to ensure it's perfectly suited to your needs.

Every treatment is tailored to your individual skin, ensuring you achieve the best possible results.

For the best results, we recommend a course of 6 Medik8 peels. Our 12 Weeks to WOW course is a fantastic option for those looking to achieve a truly transformative result. While a single peel will leave your skin with a lovely glow and noticeable improvements, the real magic happens with the full course. By committing to 6 peels, you’ll see a visible transformation in your skin's texture, tone, and overall radiance.
