These superficial resurfacing treatments are suitable for all skin types, with slight flaking and no downtime. They are ideal for patients with oily skin, mild to moderate pigmentation, acne, early signs of ageing, uneven skin tone or sensitive skin.
-
SkinCeuticals Peels: Combining medical-grade acids with soothing botanical ingredients, SkinCeuticals peels help refine skin texture, brighten dull skin and restore a healthy glow while maintaining the skin barrier. They are also well suited for ageing skin, helping to improve the appearance of fine lines and early wrinkles. Options include Micropeel, Pigment Balancing Peel and GL Peel.
-
Mesoestetic Peels: Professional resurfacing treatments formulated to target concerns such as pigmentation, acne, early signs of ageing and uneven skin tone. Options include Azelan Peel, Lactic Acid Peel, Modified Jessner Peel and Melan Tran3x Peel.
TCA, NeoStrata & Retimax Peels
These medical-grade chemical peel formulations are more advanced resurfacing treatments available only at selected doctor-led clinics. They are designed to address concerns such as deeper pigmentation, uneven skin texture, sun damage and visible signs of ageing by stimulating deeper skin renewal.
- NeoStrata ProSystem: NeoStrata ProSystem peels use clinically proven acid blends such as glycolic acid and retinol to resurface the skin, smooth fine lines and enhance overall skin luminosity. Peel options include Retinol Peel, Mandelic & Citric Acid Peel, and Glycolic Acid Peel.
- Retimax Peel: Developed by Dr. Wade Merchant, Retimax is a prescription-strength retinoic acid peel designed to accelerate cell renewal, reduce pigmentation and improve overall skin tone and texture.
- Mesoestetic MD Touch MelanoStop: A targeted depigmentation TCA peel designed for focal use to address excess melanin and regulate its production. The formulation contains 20% TCA, 4% kojic acid and 1% ferulic acid.
SkinCeuticals Masque & LED Light Therapy
Each chemical peel treatment is completed with the application of a SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Masque followed by medical-grade LED Light Therapy to calm, hydrate and support skin recovery after exfoliation.
- SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Masque: A cooling botanical gel masque formulated with cucumber, thyme, mulberry extract and hyaluronic acid. Applied immediately after your treatment, it is clinically proven to calm redness, reduce sensitivity and deeply hydrate the skin.
- LED Light Therapy: Our advanced medical-grade LED light uses clinically proven wavelengths of light energy that penetrate the skin and stimulate fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production and wound healing. This helps support the skin’s natural healing process, reduce inflammation and promote a clearer, healthier-looking complexion.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Here are some of the most frequently asked questions about chemical peel treatments. If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to us directly.
What is the downtime after a chemical peel?
Downtime depends on the type of peel used.
SkinCeuticals and Mesoestetic peels: These are superficial peels and downtime is minimal to none. You may experience mild redness or tightness for a few hours after treatment. Your skin may start to lightly flake from the second or third day after treatment, depending on the peel used. Most normal activities can be continued immediately after treatment, although we recommend avoiding exercise for 24 hours.
TCA, NeoStrata and Retimax peels: These are deeper resurfacing treatments and may involve more noticeable peeling for several days as the skin renews. Peeling typically begins around the second or third day after treatment, depending on the peel used. Most daily activities can continue immediately after treatment, however we recommend avoiding exercise for 48 hours
Are chemical peels suitable for all skin types?
Most of our chemical peels are suitable for all skin types when performed by trained practitioners using the correct formulation and strength. During your first session, a consultation and quick skin test will be performed to determine the most suitable peel for your skin type, tone and condition.
- SkinCeuticals, Mesoestetic, NeoStrata and Retimax peels can be selected and adjusted to suit different skin tones and concerns.
- TCA peels are not suitable for all skin types, particularly darker skin tones, as TCA penetrates deeper into the skin and may cause burns which can lead to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Who is not suitable for chemical peels?
Chemical peels are not suitable or recommended for individuals or patients who:
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have active skin infections or open wounds in the treatment area
- Have certain inflammatory skin conditions in the treatment area
- Have recently used isotretinoin (Roaccutane)
- Have recently undergone certain skin procedures or treatments that require healing time
What’s the duration per treatment?
Chemical Peel treatments takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated.
Is aftercare included?
Yes. Full aftercare guidance is provided after every treatment to support proper skin recovery and optimise your results. This includes clear instructions on skincare, sun protection and activities to avoid while the skin is renewing.
Where are you based?
Natural Aesthetics is based in Cape Town with established clinics in Green Point, Tyger Valley, and Somerset West. Once your appointment is confirmed, our team will send you consent forms to complete, along with the clinic address, directions, and a Google Maps link.
