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.
