Facial Peels – Controlled Resurfacing for Clearer, Healthier Skin
Medical-grade facial peels are a highly effective way to improve skin tone, texture and clarity by accelerating cell turnover and targeting damage within the skin. When carefully selected and professionally delivered, facial peels can achieve visible, meaningful results with minimal disruption to daily life.
At Dr Hazel Skin Solutions in Long Itchington, near Leamington Spa, we offer a curated range of medical facial peels, including the EnerPeel® system and Obagi® peels, tailored to your skin type, concerns and lifestyle.
What Is a Medical Facial Peel?
Improve skin texture and smoothness
Reduce pigmentation and uneven tone
Clear congestion and acne
Soften fine lines
Enhance overall radiance
Unlike over the counter or salon peels, medical grade peels are designed to penetrate the skin in a precise, controlled way, allowing targeted treatment of specific concerns with predictable results.
Why Choose Medical-Grade Peels?
Medical peels are not one-size-fits-all. The type of acid, concentration, depth and activation method all matter.
At Dr Hazel Skin Solutions, peels are chosen and customised based on:
Your skin type and sensitivity
The condition being treated
Time available for recovery
Whether the peel will be combined with other treatments
This ensures results are effective while maintaining skin safety and integrity.
What Can Facial Peels Treat?
Facial peels can be used to address:
Acne and congestion
Acne scarring and post-inflammatory pigmentation
Melasma and uneven pigmentation
Fine lines and textural irregularities
Dull, tired-looking skin
Rosacea-prone skin (selected peels only)
Is a Facial Peel Right for Me?
Facial peels may be ideal if you:
- Want clearer, brighter skin
- Struggle with acne or pigmentation
- Prefer a non-injectable treatment
- Want to refresh skin quality without significant downtime
During your consultation, Dr Hazel will advise whether a peel is the most appropriate option, or whether treatments such as microneedling, skin boosters or energy-based devices would better address your concerns.
Results & Recovery
Results depend on the type and depth of peel used.
- Some peels produce an immediate glow
- Others work progressively over 7–14 days
- Light flaking may occur, though not all peels cause visible peeling
Downtime ranges from none to several days, depending on peel choice and skin sensitivity.
The EnerPeel® System – Advanced Peel Technology
EnerPeel® peels use a unique patented delivery system that allows the active acid to penetrate the skin before activation.
This means:
- Reduced surface irritation
- Less redness and downtime
- Deeper, more targeted action
- Improved tolerability, even in sensitive skin
EnerPeel® peels are particularly effective for acne, pigmentation, rosacea-prone skin and signs of ageing, and can be used alone or combined with other treatments such as microneedling where appropriate.
EnerPeel® Treatments Available
EnerPeel® SA – Salicylic Acid 30%
Ideal for oily and acne-prone skin.
This peel helps to reduce excess oil production, clear congestion and calm inflammation, making it particularly useful during active acne breakouts when other peels may be unsuitable.
EnerPeel® MA – Mandelic Acid 40%
A versatile peel with exfoliating and antibacterial properties.
It is especially effective for:
- Rosacea and redness
- Hormonal, sun-induced and age-related pigmentation

EnerPeel® MA can be used as a summer-safe peel and is the one peel that can be safely combined in the same session as microneedling when clinically appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will my skin peel after treatment?
Some peels cause light flaking, while others do not. Visible peeling is not necessary for results.
Can facial peels be performed in summer?
Yes. Certain peels, including mandelic acid peels, are suitable year-round when combined with appropriate aftercare and sun protection.
Is there downtime after a facial peel?
Downtime varies depending on the peel used. Some patients return to normal activities immediately, while others may experience mild redness or flaking for a few days.
How many treatments will I need?
This depends on your skin concern. Some patients benefit from a single peel, while others require a course of treatments for optimal results.
Can facial peels be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Facial peels can form part of a staged treatment plan and, in selected cases, may be combined with microneedling or other skin treatments to enhance results. Treatment timing is always planned carefully to protect the skin.
